I understand the reasoning, NFL will make money off the draft, but robbing the young kids their moment in the sun is not worth it. Also, the draft is at least something the fans will be interested in even without a season. Dumb move.
also when a guy like Adrian Petersen comes out and calls the NFL, "modern day slavery", a lot of people arent going to be feeling for the players too much... with a comment like that, you would think he plays for the Jets
