NFLPA wants to change OTA’s and training camp
Mid June? Man the NFL really is trying to make this league year round. They don’t like that dead period in Summer

I think a summer league might be interesting if the League ever wanted to do that.
It could be all those guys who don’t have a great chance of making the roster but get invited to camp. UFAs, late round draft picks, etc. Gives those guys a chance to show what they can do and “washed” players get a chance to show they still have it. Maybe 6-8 games over the summer. Could play on small college fields or wherever. |

I would think this would be better, especially if/when they go to the 18 game season.

The current level of preparation seems to be working well for the Chiefs.
So, in conclusion, **** this idea. |

**** THAT! I want to keep what's kept my favorite team, the Kansas City Chiefs winning the last two super bowls!
NFL probably doesn't want this. They use OTA's to stay a little relevant year round. |

This has to do with increasing the season..you prepare people for it by having training camps start in June...so when they start a week earlier no one really cares.

Question...with the NFL adding an extra game a couple of years ago as well as them adding another soon...does that affect player contracts? I mean, you negotiate based on how may regular season scheduled games you have to play in...doesn't the NFL have to pay everyone extra (ie: alter the contracts) for the extra game?

Longer OTA's and training camp, shorter pre-season (2 games) and longer season (18 games) with 2 byes.
