(Stats Perform) - The canceling of most college pro days last spring due to the COVID-19 pandemic proved costly in the NFL Draft for players below the FBS level.

There were only six FCS selections, by far the fewest ever, after NFL teams shied away from drafting players whom they did not get to view up-close-and-personal.

FCS draft prospects face another unprecedented scenario prior to the 2021 draft. They may have to surrender most if not all of their senior season just to give themselves a chance to be drafted.
