DMD Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 Was listening to sports radio and that topic came up. It is interesting. Like have the Combine in FEB, then the draft in MAR, then start free agency in APR. How would that change things? Teams would initially look to the draft to fill holes and rebuild rosters, and then fill in with available veterans. The NFLPA would never go for it since there would less incidence of overpaying for a veteran not knowing what the draft will provide. Having the draft in April means almost all rookies are drafted prior to graduation anyway. If the two were flip-flopped, it would give teams a better idea of what to spend in free agency since they'd already have the slotted draft picks. After listening to the NFL draft being beaten to death on TV, internet and radio, it was nice to think about something else. Would it matter?

I don't think GMs would like it much either. It would definitely matter, not sure if that was a real question or not. PS If listening to talk about the draft drives you nuts, turn it off Yes even if its part of your job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude, you need to find yourself a dynasty league to get in. Pre-NFL draft talk is awesome for us degenerates that are in multiple - or even just one - dynasty league. This is the time of year where you build the youth movement on your team(s). I am skipping out of work at 3pm PST to head over to a sports bar w/ patio to have a couple/few beers and watch the game with a buddy who I turned on to dynasty leagues several years back and now he's a degenerate like me.
