NFL fines Ravens $250,000, but no lost draft pick, for COVID-19 violations

A COVID-19 outbreak within the Ravens organization wreaked havoc on the NFL schedule, and that outbreak was caused at least in part by the team failing to follow the league’s COVID-19 protocols. But the league’s discipline on the team was not particularly harsh. The Ravens were fined $250,000...

So our Saints are going to be the only team to lose a draft pick.

Of course.

Of course.

I believe another team lost draft picks too. Raiders or the Pats.
Ravens should lose a pick too. Also Tennessee.

The Raiders also lost a 6th round pick, but I do wonder how evenly applied the penalty for COVID protocol violations was. https://www.nfl.com/news/raiders-jon-gruden-fined-lose-draft-pick-for-covid-19-violations

Was that their 2nd offense, or did it all come from a single incident? Saints lost a pick b/c it was a multiple offense.

Compare apples with apples - only teams that were reprimanded a second time have been docked a draft pick. That's the Raiders and Saints.

We might argue the severity of the lapse both in Baltimore, and indeed over at Tennessee earlier in the season, but the league is actually very consistent so far in levying fines in the first instance, then progressing to picks after that.

And that's from someone with no love for Goodell or his office.
