According to Ian Rapoport, the 2018 NFL Draft will be held at AT&T Stadium in Dallas.

The 2017 NFL Draft in Philadelphia was a smashing success, as Philly set record attendance numbers while experiencing zero police incidents. In May, 94WIP's Chris Carlin first reported Philly was unlikely to host the draft for a second straight year.

"If the NFL draft doesn't come back here, in my opinion, it's their loss," Carlin's co-host and former Eagles linebacker Ike Reese said in May. "Other cities have to live up to the way we did the draft."
