Five years ago Andrew Luck Jersey White , the league decided to take the ultimate reality show’s ultimate reality show on the road. Now, almost every destination wants it.“Indy’s got to get the draft,” Colts owner Jim Irsay said Saturday, via the . “We’ve got to get the draft, but to have that, we’ve got to have the hotels.”That last part is confusing. Indy has the hotels to host a Super Bowl; it did so successfully in early 2012. The broader challenge is that pretty much every other city wants the draft, too. And with each draft that draws massive crowds that don’t (unlike certain other massive crowds) need to be embellished Andrew Luck Jersey , more and more cities will want the draft.Along the way, more and more cities will make more and more offers aimed at making the draft more and more of a financial gold mine. That’s the part of the process that rarely gets much play — the public resources devoted to attracting an event, with the expenditure justified by the thousands who will be staying in those hotels and eating at the restaurants and otherwise spending money at a three-day, open-air draft party.Even if Indy already has enough hotels, Irsay apparently has a habit of seizing on these moments to lobby for more hotels.“In talking to everyone in town, I can’t discourage the great work they do in making sure they book a ton of events and eat up a lot of our hotel space, but I think any time we have a new hotel go up downtown Womens Darius Leonard Jersey , it’s a win for the city, and for the state, and for the Colts, and Pacers and everyone else,” Irsay said.Eventually, the number of hotels and restaurants will hit a point of saturation, at which there simply won’t be enough events to generate the money needed to keep these places open. Besides Peyton Manning Jersey White , has there ever been an issue about Indianapolis not having the hotel space to accommodate its various big events?For the draft, which managed to thrive in Nashville without calls for more hotels, the bigger challenge isn’t coming up with the cash to build hotels. It’s coming up with the cash to get the NFL’s attention, because the draft quickly has become nearly as desirable as the Super Bowl.It’s impressive that the NFL has figured this out, even if it’s odd that it took the NFL so long to realize it. After helping turn around a struggling offensive line in Indianapolis last season, Dave DeGuglielmo is now serving as an analyst with the Miami Dolphins.According to Hal Habib of the , DeGuglielmo is assisting Miami offensive line coach Pat Flaherty and was at the team’s rookie mini-camp. Via Mike Garafolo of the NFL Network Womens Andrew Luck Jersey , DeGuglielmo with serve as a general analyst for both sides of the ball.DeGuglielmo was previously the Dolphins offensive line coach from 2009-11 under head coach Tony Sparano. He worked alongside new Dolphins head coach Brian Flores with the New England Patriots for two years as the offensive line coach of the Patriots from 2014-15.DeGuglielmo signed on to coach the Colts offensive line when everyone expected Josh McDaniels to be the head coach. He remained on staff after McDaniels backed out at the last-minute and the Colts pivoted to Frank Reich instead. After one year together in a forced marriage, Reich fired DuGuglielmo in favor of Chris Strausser and Howard Mudd.The Colts offensive line saw a massive jump in productivity last season under DeGuglielmo. The selection of Quenton Nelson certainly helped, as did the return of a healthy Andrew Luck, but DeGuglielmo deserves credit for the turnaround as well.
