oregonbbfan Posted April 8, 2007 Posted April 8, 2007 Last year were were impacted by the stupid NFL rule that a drafted player could not attend OTA's as long as there were still college exams at the drafted players school to be taken. In the case of Ellison and AY and a couple others , even though thay were done with their exams , had to wait and lost out on a lot of coaching. I think in the case of Youboty, these missed OTA's in addition to his mom's death really hurt him. I recall a couple players getting waivers on other teams but not us. Anyone know the reason for the rule and how to get the waiver? Which brings me to this year. Will the Bill's OTA schedule take this into account this year? Or, will we deal with it for the Ohio State, Oregon, other schools we draft players from that are affected by this rule? Anyone know about Ole Miss? I think it's important to get all rookies in asap to start learning the system. Your thoughts.
