If there is one thing the NFL is exceptional at, is that there isn’t any off-season for fans. Yes, the games ended with the Super Bowl in February, but throughout the year there is always something new to converse about that will spark an interest on how to improve your favorite squad.
In January, there are the various college All-Star games such as the Senior Bowl or East-West Shrine Game which allows players to go against the better talent to see where their ability matches up - or down. Many a player has seen their stock rise a full round with a successful week at the one of these games.
