Does anyone like this idea? I love my Saturday draft day experience... Grilling out. TV on the deck. Why would Goodell want to take that away from me?
Anyway, if you are on facebook and disagree with this move I started a group if you would like to join.
If you like this idea, please tell me why?

I think it was a travesty taking away the third round from Saturday. I would be wholeheartedly against moving it again. Booooo!

Another suggestion: 111 days after the last draft ends, the new one begins... one pick per day... draft kicks off in August, lasts about 7 months. Talk about maximizing the exposure!

Writing Bud Selig, cupstacking...all that is needed is an Orange Julius reference and it completes the blast from the past, circa 2001.

This scenario seems like a good suggestion, until you crunch the numbers and find out that in fact it would mean the 2013 season would be starting as the 2011 draft enters its 4th round.

Ok, so no one likes this idea. That was what I thought.
Just as a reminder, if you are a facebooker, join my group. It is the only thing I could think of to make the displeasure apparent to the powers that be.

I didn't want to look like I was using MGS to direct people that way but since you asked...
KEEP THE NFL DRAFT ON SATURDAY!!!
Refer it around if you don't mind.
