Should the NFL disband preseason?

Doubt there's any time for a developmental league that would draw enough interest to make it worth the money.

Plus, when would you have it?  During the NFL season?  Then it would get no views or audience.

Maybe most important is how many players are just completely crippled by season's end?  If you make a developmental league, you're just subjecting players to large amounts of beating and unnecessary wear and tear.  NFL careers are short-lived with an an average of 3.3 years, so a developmental league most likely wouldn't work like with the NBA or MLB just because of the beating football players take.

If you're not good enough coming out of college, then stay in school.  When you graduate, hope to get drafted or go a team's tryout, but a developmental NFL league would be a waste of time and money.
