Rumors are already flying around social media in regards to free agency and the Draft. Before any of this speculation can become a reality, however, the annual tradition known as the NFL Combine has to happen first.
Between February 24th and March 1st, college players will be poked, prodded, measured, timed and tested. All while NFL team executives and coaches and a myriad of fans and media watch from the stands.
The NFL Combine is also where the ‘unofficial’ start of the free agency tampering period begins. Agents will ‘test the waters’ on the potential interest between teams and players; although it must be noted that no actual negotiations are allowed.
