What if DCI had an NFL style draft? This is an idea that has interested hosts Jake Lyons and Chris Parker for nearly a decade. The NFL and DCI share the same stage, a dedicated fan base, and extremely high performing people, so why shouldn't they share the same style draft? Learn how we would structure a combine, draft, and try to level the playing field amongst all of the drum corps. Have an idea for an episode or the DCI draft?
