The NFL Draft moved from Radio City Music Hall in New York City to Chicago, where more than 225,000 fans visited Draft Town in Grant Park over a three-day period from April 30 to May 2.
2016 will mark the 10th different year Chicago has hosted the draft, as the Windy City hosted the NFL's top offseason event in 1938, 1942-1944, 1951, 1962-1964 and 2015.
