STOP DOING HEROIN
Holy poo poo, another month of offseason? The NFL calendar is the worst.

The good news is that things will actually happen this month, like :supaburn: TRAINING CAMP :supaburn: which doesn't actually start until the very end of the month, but hey, that's something to look forward to.

Here's the team-by-team camp start dates. Most teams have announced their detailed schedules already, but you'll have to track those down yourselves.

Other than that, there are a couple of housekeeping things to look out for:

quote:

July 15: At 4 p.m. ET, deadline for any club that designated a Franchise Player to sign such player to a multi-year contract or extension. After this date, the player may sign only a one-year contract with his prior club for the 2015 season, and such contract cannot be extended until after the club’s last regular season game

July 22: Signing Period ends for unrestricted Free Agents to whom a “June 1 Tender” was made by prior club. After this date and until 4 p.m. ET, on the Tuesday following the 10th weekend of the regular season, prior club has exclusive negotiating rights (* or the first scheduled day of the first NFL training camp, whichever is later.)

July 22: Signing period ends for Transition Players with outstanding tenders. After this date and until 4 p.m. ET, on the Tuesday following the 10th weekend of the regular season, prior club has exclusive negotiating rights

There's also the supplemental draft on July 9 but nobody cares about that.

So yeah, we're almost through this dark time. Hang in there.

Supplemental draft is on July 9th.

Some Clemson tackle is supposed to be likely to get taken.

Isaiah Battle. The Falcons are reportedly the most interested in him...I've read that he has a lot of upside, but is very raw and has off field drama so :shrug:

Here's the entire list of eligible players:

DT - West Georgia D. Stuckey
DE - West Georgia D. Caldwell,
WR - North Carolina Central A. Wilkins
T - Clemson I. Battle

Apparently the Clemson guy might get a pick, probably not on the other 3 dudes.

Yeah West Georgia is D2 and NC Central FCS, so Battle's the only guy from a big school there. I guess the others are hoping someone takes a flyer on their athleticism or whatever.

They claim 20 teams are going to the pro day at West Georgia today so they're at least checking them out.

Remember when everyone cared about who got Terrelle Pryor, like it might make a difference? Not the best use of a 3rd round pick.

I love that #69 clearly sees the maneuver and is like "eyyyyyy wtf".

I'm pretty sure 77 off to the right sees it too. He does a little double-take.

Also the best reaction is the ref. He looks over at Tony like "Really?"
