I don't know, tonight's the first time I heard about them. Judging by the video, teams are allowed to invite any players from within 40 miles of the metropolitan area where the team resides. They were kind of joking how different it is for some teams, mentioning Miami and how they could bring in every Hurricane player if they want, whereas the Chiefs have to scour local kids (regardless of the college they attended) as well as players at local universities, which here means small schools. KU and K-State are too far away.

I don't know a whole lot about it though, just what I could gather from the video. Neat idea, in any case, reminds me of the scouting camps local minor league baseball teams ran back when I still played.
