The Collective Bargaining Agreement gives the NFL the option to hold a supplemental draft each year, but it is not mandated.

Under the CBA, the NFL may elect to hold a supplemental draft each year. The matter was discussed with the NFL Management Council Executive Committee, and in light of current conditions, the decision was made not to hold one.
