I would HATE for them to push the draw dates back for any reason! It is so nice to know your status in WY before you have to apply in other states. If they push the draw dates back they are going to lose a lot of people who just can't take the chance of not getting drawn especially given the point creep that has happened the last few years. For example, if you are a NR with 2 or less elk points and want a general permit, no way can you wait until May/June to see if you get lucky in WY. From the state of WY's perspective, it has a good thing going being the first state where people hope to get a license apply then fall back to another state if that doesn't work out.
Back on topic, due to the modest increases and decreases, this is exactly how I would want biologists to set tag quotas.....some go up some go down depending on population and habitat dynamics.
