'Draft Day' to be filmed in Cleveland instead of Buffalo...

According to the article by Nancy Sanders, the Ivan Reitman directed, Lionsgate produced, Kevin Costner starring film, 'Draft Day,' formerly to depict the Buffalo Bills General Manager "struggles with an out-spent and last-place team during the draft" will now be filmed in Cleveland, Ohio and will now depict the Cleveland Browns General Manager since Ohio's tax deduction incentive was 5% higher than New York State, saving the movie production 3.5 million dollars.

According to the article by Clint O'Connor, "The film, about a general manager working to restore the greatness of his franchise, could shoot here in late spring or early summer, around the same time as "Captain America: The Winter Soldier."
