    I am not much of an NFL fan so it really doesn't bother me on it being late this year. I am however a big college football fan and like to see where many of them end up and their pro potential. Looking forward to it.

    Yes it does. There's no benefit to it - if anything it's just getting dragged out way longer than it needs

    It's all about publicity.

    Yes I think it sucks. They should move it up a couple weeks IMO.

    It doesn't really bother me. I never understood all the hoopla around the actual draft. Sitting and watching a bunch of "experts" talk for hours on end drives me nuts lol

    Absolutely sucks.

    And with the 8th pick in the 2014 NFL draft, the Minnesota Vikings select...

    Why does it suck exactly? Just because we're all impatient to see who our teams are drafting? Or is there an actual legitimate reason for the suckage?

    I just get tired of hearing about all the possible first few picks. The "experts" are on these shows and tell you what they think and then the next week they come on and say the same thing in a different way. This goes on and on then they go on a show and say they changed there mind all becuase the guy had a great private workout. The private workouts are also in perfect conditions that in no way simulate actual football.

    I know they moved it back in an effort to keep football in our minds all year long but I still think its stupid. What I do like however is the fact that cities like Chicago and LA are trying to get the draft moved. Not that I would ever go it would just be nice to not have to listen to Jets fans in the background the entire time.
