This is silly. This benefits nobody. The coaches and scouting community have already voiced their displeasure with it. It only further hurts the rookies coming in. It upsets the balance of teams weighing filling needs with FA vs. The Draft, which hurts both Free agents and teams alike.

It's stupid and was done for no other reason than "MONIEZ!! GOTS TO GET ME SOME MORE OF DAT MONIEZ!!"

More evidence that Goodell is nothing but an ambitious fool whose only interest in the game is to create his own mark and legacy on it.

Sheesh I miss Tagliabue. That guy spoiled us I guess, but Goodell has got to be one of the worst Commissioners past and present in any of the four manor sports

The NFL Draft is moving 2 weeks later than usual for 2014. Doesn't really make sense to me? Just typical Goodell....

It makes a lot of sense. It's being moved to a ratings month. It's all about money.

While I can see the teams being upset, I certainly am not affected by it.

The NFL is being too cocky poaching on the NBA playoffs time slot. That's why MLB told the ravens to go kick rocks on their season opening game coming of a superbowl win.

You're not waiting any extra because it takes 2 weeks off the post-draft offseason. The post June 1 FA period to training camp is the longest and deadest and hardest wait. I'd love them to push everything back a bit to eat into that chunk of time.

      Preseason Week 3 - vs. Pittsburgh (practice tweets, discussion, etc)

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      They had best show out in Week 1 there are zero,I mean zero,  excuses for that offense  defense, haven’t play together yet and they still have Mr Soft and Predictable as DC  I expect break downs at times  …but that offense returns all starters except Tremble and both Mayes and Brady are veterans and can play LG and know the system not up for any participation awards this season they can save that practice energy for Jacksonville.     I’m sick of the, winning,  or looking competitive, when it doesn’t matter.

      There are some tough decisions that I'm eager to see the results of... Does Blackshear sneak on to the roster as RB4? Does the team go with 4 TEs or just 3 again? And has Mitchell Evans done enough to defend his roster spot from James Mitchell? Who is WR6 and is there a WR7? TMac, XL, Coker, and AT seem to be locks imo and I'm assuming Renfrow also makes it due to all of the camp praise. Who makes it between Brycen Tremayne, Jimmy Horn Jr, and David Moore? If the team goes with 7 WRs, which one of those three doesn't make it? Jacolby George and Emani Bailey both have not gotten a lot of game time. Could the Panthers be trying to hide them so that they can be stashed on the PS? Do they go with 10 OL instead of 9? Who makes it out of Walton, Carter, and Kingston? DL locks are DB, BB3, ARob, and Turk. That leaves Jaden Crumedy, Cam Jackson, Sam Roberts, Shy Tuttle, and LaBryan Ray all competing for the final 1 - 3 spots. Does DJ Johnson get IR'd and Thomas Incoom make the roster as EDGE5? What in the fuuuuuuuuuuuuck is going to happen at LB? Only locks are Wallace, Rozeboom, and Cherelus (Wallace has mentioned in media how Cherelus has been big bro for him on the team) seem to be locks. Rhattigan had some good moments against Houston, Martin-Scott is an SC guy, Krys Barnes has popped on defense and on special teams, and Windmon got time starting for the team last season. Are two of those guys going to make it or are the Panthers poaching from another team's cuts? CB5... who is it? Do they go with the 4 expected safeties or bring in a 5th? Has Ransom done enough to take the start from Nick Scott?

      I had this discussion with my buddy yesterday afternoon. If we start this season very slow(especially with the schedule being what it is) and then "rally" in the second half to get to 4-7 wins, I am already gonna be pretty heated at the staff overall. I know we are a very bad roster but I am not gonna keep excusing these slow season starts WITH late season rallies. That's a coaching staff problem, IMO. It's more excusable to just stink gate to gate, IMO. At least you can understand why.
