The gap between the NFL Combine and the draft is too wide

[Ethnic Vagina Finder]

The shyt drags on for too long and having a draft a few months before training camp is dumb. Rookies should be apart of their prospective a teams sooner as they need the most acclamation.

And I realize there are hundreds of schools but do you really need all of the workouts?

They have to fill that gap and interest through the offseason.

they don't. we have talked about the draft since the Super Bowl. and talks have slowed down naturally and this should be the time they do the draft.

they can go two month without too much talk then training starts up. just sitting here listening to nikkas speculate on tv and they aint go the answers.

The whole schedule needs to be revamped. They need to get rid of all pre-season games and turn them into regular season games. Think about it.

There's a long evaluation period for front offices and scouts. It's not meant to be a quick process.

You have prospects visiting, interviewing and working out for teams still.

anddddd once again
another person lacking NFL procedural knowledge

Once the combine is done athletes reset there bodies and get ready for there pro days
pro days are all throughout the nation and is a great place for those not invited to show there skills
as well as skill position players in next years draft(working out for your QB or WR)

This process takes 2 months due to the sheer number of schools holding pro days
its a necessary evil due to the # of athletes coming out and the vast landscape of college football

Then comes evaluations with the scouting dept. and the front office
also non required OTAs

and we aren't even talking the start of free agency

The NFL is busy throughout the spring breh relax​
