When is rookie camp?

[PromisedLand]

So the draft is over and now we have nothing tangible to talk about (except for the possible roster transactions we might make now and then) until the rookie camp. I couldn't find a calendar on nfl.com or patriots.com - does anyone know when it is?

May 13-14 -- Patriots rookie mini-camp

http://www.atlantafalcons.com/team/impDates.jsp

May 16: Except for a three-day mini-camp held within 15 days of the draft, this is the first day that players eligible for the 2006 Draft are permitted to participate in mini-camps, practices, or meetings. If final examinations at a player's school conclude after this date, the player is prohibited from participating in any activities until after the player's final day of examinations. If the player has left or leaves school, he is prohibited from participating in any club activities until after the final day of examinations at his school.

Unfortunately for the Steelers, this applies to Santonio Holmes. He is ineligible to participate in anything until JUNE.

Because of an NFL-NCAA agreement, a college player cannot take part in NFL spring workouts until his college has had its graduation. Because many schools hold graduation in early May, most NFL draft picks are not affected.
But Holmes can't begin practicing until after the university's mid-June graduation. By then, the Steelers will have finished the 14 days of coaching sessions that follow their May 13-15 mini-camp, which Holmes is permitted to attend.
