This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

to May, so colleges are adjusting for those states that have moved or will move to the spring. The colleges did float a trial balloon to the NFL about moving the draft and the NFL declined, as of that moment. That was when we were in an improving place with the numbers, however.
The NFL absolutely wants tape on the seniors and draft eligible juniors who would be coming out, and they most certainly do not want guys just sitting out. Push comes to shove, I would guess that they would move it back, but perhaps only a month or so. More than likely the combine would be eliminated or drastically reduced.
