The NFL offseason schedule is getting closer to the draft in May and now teams are starting to set schedules for OTA workout programs and minicamps and ESPN has the list of all 32 teams and the dates they have set for those workouts and teams like the Washington Redskins, Minnesota Vikings, Cleveland Browns and Houston Texans will be getting started early since they brought in new head coaches.

The NFL season doesn't begin for months and training camps won't break until the summer, but with the draft coming up in May, professional football remains at the forefront of the sports world and now the workout program stage of the offseason is set to begin. Some teams will be shuffling their offseason workout schedules and rookie minicamps with the draft coming at a later date because of the availability of Radio City Music Hall. The NFL wanted to keep the draft at that location and opted to push it to a later date rather than change is and because of that some teams will not have regular rookie minicamps at all because of the push back.

The Giants are a team that has an early offseason schedule and they will be able to open training camp early because they are playing against the Buffalo Bills in the Hall of Fame Game. Michael Strahan will be getting inducted this year and that is why the Giants were selected for the matchup and because of that training camp potentially can start on July 19, but no date has been set yet.

The draft s three weeks later than usual this year and before the event the team will start their offseason program and the mandatory minicamp will start in the Summer in June and it will run from June 17 to 19. The team has organized team activities on these days: May 28-30, June 2-3, June 5, June 9-10, June 12-13
