NFL Expansion and hypothetical schedule

If the NFL swallowed up the CFL, and added 4 teams, here's how I'd align the teams, and do the schedule. Tell me what you think:

AFC EAST

NEW ENGLAND
NEW YORK JETS
BUFFALO
TORONTO
BALTIMORE
PITTSBURGH

AFC CENTRAL

JACKSONVILLE
MIAMI
INDIANAPOLIS
CLEVELAND
CINCINNATI
TENNESSEE

AFC WEST

HOUSTON
KANSAS CITY
DENVER
EDMONTON
LAS VEGAS
LOS ANGELES CHARGERS

NFC EAST

WASHINGTON
PHILADELPHIA
NEW YORK GIANTS
CAROLINA
ATLANTA
TAMPA BAY

NFC CENTRAL

DETROIT
CHICAGO
GREEN BAY
MINNESOTA
WINNIPEG
NEW ORLEANS

NFC WEST

DALLAS
ARIZONA
LOS ANGELES RAMS
SAN FRANCISCO
SEATTLE
BRITISH COLUMBIA

Schedule:

18 games (h/h in division, 1 division in conference, 2 interconference games, based on record)
Season starts the Sunday of the long weekend
Teams play first 6 games without a bye, last 6 without a bye, 1 bye/season
SNF/MNF DH every weekend
Other than the night you're avoiding your annoying relatives, no more TNF
Saturday (1/wk) games starting Week 13 (1st week after byes finish)
No more "Breakfast at Wembly" or Mexico City games
7 playoff teams per conference playoff schedule remains the same otherwise
Pro Bowl AFTER SB

Non-schedule related changes

Draft goes to 8 rounds
No more compensatory picks
Time limits go 20/15/10/5 (2 rds each level)
Draft is 2 days
1st overall pick goes on the clock at high noon local time on last Saturday in April (4 rds/day)
