Free Agency Period May Be Pushed Back Till April.
Oh Boy a change in plans already. As most of us know and are looking forward March 3, 2006, which is known as Free Agency Period in the NFL. However, someone forgot to tell the NFL.
With the NFL and the players' association still unable to agree on terms for an extension to the collective bargaining agreement, the league may move back the start of the free agency period. According to several published reports, the date would be moved back from March 3 to April 1 in hopes that an agreement could be reached. The later date may be enough for the two sides to agree on a new CBA, but it would certainly make for a busy April for personnel departments, who would have three weeks to woo and sign free agents before the draft.
Man, just when we are half way through February, and looking forward to March, the NFL changes everything. However, if the CBA could be reached, it would be worth it.
