We are now just four days away from the start of the NFL’s Free Agent Tampering Period which starts on Monday March 9th at Noon EST. I do genuinely love this time of year and the player movement that gets announced. It will always be a little strange that the league prefers to do free agency before the NFL Draft, which is the opposite of many other leagues, but it will never stop being an enjoyable time.
