The Packers say the space for Green Bay’s NFL Draft will be twice the size of Detroit’s.
Team officials met with locals in Green Bay last night to talk about the plans for next year’s draft. The Packers say the footprint for the draft will center in Lambeau, and will be larger than the footprint for Detroit’s draft earlier this year in downtown Detroit. The Packers say they’ve set aside eight million-dollars for draft preparations, and say they don’t expect to make much money off the draft. The city of Green Bay, on the other hand is expecting a 20 million-dollar economic boost, and a statewide impact of up to 94 million-dollars.
