Roger Goodell: NFL draft now gives sports world hope

The NFL moved ahead with a virtual draft during the coronavirus pandemic because it wanted to provide hope to a sports world in need of it, commissioner Roger Goodell said Wednesday. "People look to us for optimism," Goodell said during an appearance on ESPN's Get Up. He added: "They look to us for bringing communities together. I think the draft is a great example of that, with restoring hope. It's hope for our fans. It's hope for our teams. It's hope for our players, for these young men who are about to start their careers as prospects and players in the NFL. That's what this is all about, and I think we need those diversions. I think we need that focus on the future and that way to bring communities together. I think we'll be able to do that for the next three days, and then we'll focus on the future immediately after that."

Leonard Williams signed his franchise tag. The question now is whether he will be compensated as a defensive end or defensive tackle, according to a report by ESPN's Adam Schefter.

The franchise tag for a defensive end is $17.8 million. Williams played eight games with the Giants after being traded from the New York Jets midway through last season, mostly as a defensive end in their 3-4 base defense. He played seven games with the Jets, who played a mix of 3-4 and 4-3 defenses.
