Sources tell the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel that the NFL is giving "serious consideration" to pushing the draft back even further toward mid-May in 2015.

Commissioner Roger Goodell has heard the loud complaints about this year's lull between free agency and the draft, but he's undeterred. The extra time has led to extra coverage, which could very well lead to higher ratings Thursday night. "There have been some real pluses, and we'll have to evaluate that," Goodell said. "A number of our coaches have praised it, too, because it gave them a chance to spend time with their current players and make some determinations about what's the right place to go in the draft. So there's some real value to it."


Thanks Goodell.

I don't watch any of it. It's pointless to watch draft coverage a month before the draft. I try to catch up the week of the draft.

Moving the draft back is just stupid.

Decisions like this don't take scouts and other members of the office into account. Scouts start looking at players again in like 2 weeks.

We'll see how much coaches like it when rookies aren't ready due to less time to prepare.
