Timing. I love how the draft is right after The Finals….the fans are still engaged and dialed in. It’s like the cherry on top after The Finals.

Rookie Scale contracts. No longer hold outs or rookies being the highest paid player

Fixing the draft is getting it right?

Yeah they do it right.

I guess that's why there wasnt a single thread about the draft last night on this board and it was hardly even talked about on sports radio

I'm just glad MLB finally moved their draft until after the CWS. Was stupid having guys drafted while they are getting ready for a game in Omaha

NFL does things very differently. They want their offseason events (draft, owners’ meeting, HOF, etc) spread out over the whole year so that there seems like something is going on all the time.

I said nothing about that. I simply said I like WHEN they have the draft. Calm down.

So rigging the draft for the large market teams is "getting it right"?

*sigh* Again, I’m not talking about “rigging the draft”….if you’re one of those simpletons who believe in all these sports conspiracy’s, knock yourself out. I’m merely saying I like WHEN the NBA holds the draft.

You've got a three month gap between March Madness and the NBA draft. That gives the prospects plenty of time to confer with agents, train or schedule workouts, etc.

College football players are still playing a few weeks before the Super Bowl and it takes them a lot longer to prepare for the draft.
