When will it get to that you can just RFID tag college players and project their athletic data to successful NFL players?

That seems like a draft day game changer. Maybe we are already doing some of that, and probably are based on what I read there.

This caught my eye too;

With so many analytics, when will teams be ready for AI to call the plays?

That feels doable to me. I can see how coverages would be quickly identified by cameras and offer play suggestions quickly for consideration. Feels doable now.

I hope that never happens. There is a limit to what technology can add before the spirit of the game is broken.

I have better things to do than watch computers play games against each other and I hope everyone else does too.
