Everything else they've done has been done to lead to more TV exposure, so I would not be surprised if it happens very soon. A lot of deals are finalized on that first day now more than before.Comment

The NFL started "NFL Signing Day" last year. NFLN and ESPN had all-day specials for the start of free agency.
The NFL wants to become a complete year-round presence on the sports calendar. August through January is the NFL season. They spaced out the combine to draft period so they have every month covered. February is the combine. March is the start of free agency. They've now moved the draft back so they have the anticipation of the draft throughout April and have the actual draft in early May. The kick off of NFL training camps is now being marketed as a big deal (similarly to the day pitchers and catchers report for baseball).
So, essentially, the NFL is now a July to May sport. They will alter their calendar or add some shit in there to make it completely year round at this point.Comment
