Tentative dates for NFL Draft in 2015 would be May 7-9 and in 2016 it would be May 5-7.
Looks like 2014 NFL draft will be held May 15-17. In 2015 and 2016, league year would start early March, combine mid-March.
Proposed new league year would start before combine in 2015 and 2016. Change of draft to May effective in 2014.

Mike Goodson, Rob Gronkowski, Bruce Irvin - just another typically quiet NFL Friday in the middle of May.
Same draft class that produced Bruce Irvin netted Russell Wilson and Bobby Wagner. Even with Irvin suspension, still an 'A' draft.

Seattle's former 1st-round pick Bruce Irvin has suspended without pay for violating NFL policy on performance-enhancing drugs.
Big congrats to Vince Young, once 3rd player taken in NFL draft--Young graduating from University of Texas this week! Congrats!!!
