With the draft and free agency over, teams are more or less settled into their 2015 rosters. The last two weeks of May and early part of June features the annual OTAs (organized team activities) and minicamps, in case you can't get enough of fat guys running around in shorts (or are just sick of hearing about Ballghazi). The OTAs probably won't be too exciting for casual NFL fans, but this is still an important part of the calendar. New coaches get their first chance to work with players on the practice field and implement their schemes. Rookies and veterans will be mingling for the first time. Contract/franchise tag holdouts will be skipping the whole thing because gently caress you, I'm on vacation and I'll show up when I feel like it, And, of course, there are the inevitable crippling injuries to look out for. The ACL Plague has already ravaged rookie minicamps, claiming Dante Fowler and Jeff Heuerman among its latest victims. Who's going to fall next? (Probably Sean Lee again) So don't expect much actual news outside of the injuries and "BEST SHAPE OF HIS LIFE" tweets from beat writers who are as bored as we are. Here's the team-by-team schedule. Most of these workouts won't happen until the last week of May, but some teams are getting a headstart next week: code:

We'll see how long this lastsquote:Rich Cimini Oh, and RIP Will Beatty Mike Garafolo @MikeGarafolo 2m2 minutes ago Giants left tackle Will Beatty suffered what's believed to be a pectoral injury while lifting weights, sources say. Extent unclear. Mike Garafolo @MikeGarafolo 37s38 seconds ago Beatty is being evaluated this afternoon in Manhattan. If surgery is required, expectation is he'd be out 5-6 months.

he's done @TomRock_Newsday: Am told Will Beatty just went in for surgery on torn pec at HSS. Recovery said to be 5 months. That's back on the field around November. In Giant land 5 months equals 10 months. Like I said in the other thread, the Giants making an early claim on breaking the NFL record for injuries for the third year running. The best player on a dogshit OL already out before OTAs even begin.

Early takeaways from the beat writers: - Dallas Thomas is still awful. - The defensive line is winning most of the early battles. - There are no running lanes lol. - Parker looks real good so far and even beat Grimes. - Hail Satan.

Dan Labbe @dan_labbe · 2h 2 hours ago I'm just going to keep telling myself OTAs are way too early to be worried about the quarterbacks. #Browns Dan Labbe @dan_labbe Sports engagement reporter for Northeast Ohio Media Group, @clevelanddotcom. Kent State grad. Trevor Huffman fan. Chase around two kids during my free time. i have never heard the term sports engagement reporter before but i can only assume that it means he will keep a close eye on exactly when most Browns fans swear off the team each Sunday

The Chiefs OTAs started as well. Derrick Johnson and Mike DeVito apparently look good coming back from Achilles tears. So far so good with them. The offensive line is going to be drastically different (as we knew), with likely 4 new starters on the line from last years squad. The only returning guy at the same spot is Eric Fisher. Alex Smith supposedly threw a 40 yard in stride pass to Maclin. Here's to hoping we open things up when guys can actually get separation. Eric Berry is done with lymphoma treatments and is waiting to hear results from the doctors. Hopefully we'll hear more soon.

"This is the year Debose really breaks out!" -UF fans for 6 years He was lauded as the next Percy Harvin. Similar athlete but things just never came together except for flashes in the return game. He might make the roster as a return man.

Rex Ryan had this to say about Bills G Chris Williams, who is MIA: Rex Ryan posted:"I don’t know if he’s going to be planning on coming back or what; I haven’t seen him," Ryan said. "I haven’t talked to him, I haven’t seen him. I don’t even know what he looks like. I know these are voluntary type things, so that’s fine. I don’t know if he’s better than all of the rest of these guys, because all the rest of them are here."
