NFL Draft moving from April to May in 2014

Posted May 22, 2013
Roger Goodell confirmed Tuesday at the NFL's spring meetings in Boston that the NFL Draft will be moved to May in 2014, sometime between the 8th and 17th of the month. Goodell said the change was needed next year because the venue, Radio City Music Hall, will host an Easter show in April. "At this late stage, for us to do it the right way, we don't see having any choice but to move the date," he said. (ESPN.com)
