The NFL has announced that there will be no supplemental draft this year. This information was communicated to teams via a memo, as confirmed by multiple sources including Tom Pelissero. The decision has been met with relief by the NFL scouting community, as area scouts typically find the supplemental draft to be a challenging part of their schedule. The lack of a supplemental draft allows scouts to enjoy extended family time during the summer without the added pressure of evaluating players with major red flags.
Big W for NFL scouting community. Area scouts hate supplemental draft more than anything. This is only real extended family time of calendar year for them and nothing worse than trying to contact schools on players that usually have major red flags in middle of summer.
