<font color=goldenrod>I'm actually pretty stoked for the draft. Free agency has its moments and all but this basically the last football-related thing of importance until September.</font>

NFL doesn't matter in April, hate how they're continually trying to make a bigger and bigger spectacle out of draft day(s)

I can't wait for the Giants to take a DE

<font color=goldenrod>I'd be fine with a DE. They pretty much can't franchise tag JPP again so if they don't agree on a long-term deal with him next year they'd need a replacement.</font>

<font color=goldenrod>Would be really surprised if the Giants don't go with a lineman of some kind first, actually. OL, DT, or DE. Brandon Schreff, Danny Shelton, or Randy Gregory probably their top targets at each spot.

I'd be happy with any. At the end of the day football is still won and lost in the trenches.</font>

NFL was in a bit of a punishing mood today. Jets fined $100k for the Revis tampering case while Dolphins Dion Jordan suspended for all of next season for another drug violation.

No :D smiley at the beginning of that post ?

No draft picks? That's crap. They gave draft picks in the last tampering and the guy didn't even end up with the team involved.

Its bullshit he was even punished. What is the guy suppose to say? Hell no Revis sucks.

"I can't answer that question."

Really? We are going to start making people be afraid to make general statements. Everyone knows anybody with half a brain wants Revis on their team. It is not like he said they were going to pursue Revis or Revis could make the Jets playoff contenders. He just said of course he would like Revis back because EVERYONE in the damn league would like Revis on their team.

DRAFT DAY!

Anybody think Tennessee is gonna trade away the 2nd pick?

<font color=goldenrod>I had read 8 PM Eastern aka 3 hours 40 minutes from now</font>

Only if they can get a king's ransom for it. Bucs already said they want another 1st Round pick for this year but the best they are offering at the moment is their 2nd round pick (#2 in that round).

if Tennessee fucks this up I will likely kill myself.

I don't think the Eagles will end up with Mariotta.

Colts will probably trade out.

So, this gonna be the draft thread? Or somewhere in casual?

<font color=goldenrod>Lots of boos for Goodell. Well deserved.</font>

<font color=goldenrod>NFL Network and ESPN have both pledged to not spoil any picks by showing players on the phone, etc.

And within 2 seconds they show Winston at his party, on the phone, high fiving everyone. :lol: though I guess he was the obvious first pick anyway so it didn't really apply to him.</font>

Never understood how/why the first pick takes even a second to come in.

Which is the better channel to watch. ESPN or NFL Network?

<font color=goldenrod>NFL Network probably. Eisen > Berman. Mayock is kind of a knob at times though.

I'll probably flip back and forth since they won't spoil picks.</font>

Nfl netork, I can't look at Kipers hair

<font color=goldenrod>Also stay off Twitter if you don't want spoilers. The beat reporters tweet a sit goes along.</font>

<font color=goldenrod>As expected the first pick is future felon Jameis Winston</font>

Winston is going to be a bust

And now all eyes are on the Titans.

<font color=goldenrod>Thinking about it, when was the last time there was a genuine surprise 1st pick? Even if there are multiple guys that are worthy of the top pick with beat reporters and the like it's pretty much set in stone a few days before the draft, if not earlier. Not sure there can be a surprise top pick anymore short of a trade going down right before the draft.</font>

I wish there was a way the Ravens could get Gurley or Gordon but not happening at 26

Does it also apply to their Twitter accounts?

Last 2-3 years they've spoiled picks there before they were shown on tv.

Marioto

Hope you like country music, Marcus.

<font color=goldenrod>Eagles supposedly offered 2 1sts, a 3rd, Fletcher Cox, and a few other players to move up and the Titans still said no. Mariota is their guy.</font>

Jacksonville not fucking around but I guess we have to wait because of commercials

nfl.com's stream awful

hope Lions pick a good player

Streak probably getting broken next season since I doubt the Bucs are going to suddenly get that good. Although haven't bothered to see what their schedule is if 9+ wins is even possible on paper.

<font color=goldenrod>Fuck, so now Washington is gonna probably get either Leonard Williams or Amari Cooper. Would not wanna face either of those guys twice a year.</font>

Lol whenever QB go 1-2 #2 is always a bust save for 1999

93 Bledsoe mirer
98 Manning leaf
99 Couch McNabb
12 luck rg3
15 Winston mariota

Fowler looks beast

Ghost of Al Davis still haunts Oakland.

So far no surprises

The Raiders didn't fuck up for once

<font color=goldenrod>Cooper's fucking amazing but Leonard Williams was clearly the best defensive player in this class. Feel like they could have gotten a good WR @ #36 overall but whatever.

Derek Carr's gotta be happy.</font>

Kiper is saying work ethic a lot this year.

I'd figure Oakland would go defense to give Denver a bit of a challenge by picking up Williams. With Del Rio being a defensive minded coach and all.

Hell, I wonder if Del Rio made the call?

Wow

<font color=goldenrod>Oh fuck, Washington took the Giants' guy.

Glad Leonard Williams didn't go there, though.</font>

Jets take Williams? Please. Don't want him in Giants

Mayock says Williams got flagged by a few teams cause of a shoulder issue.

<font color=goldenrod>I can't see Leonard Williams making it to #9. Giants would still need to trade up to get him and Jerry Reese has never made a first round trade, up or down.</font>

Thought they had 7th pick. Whew

<font color=goldenrod>Although O-Line figured to be the top target, if Vic Beasley is still there at #9 I see Reese jumping. He can't resist a pass rusher.

If Beasley's gone I think Ereck Flowers would be the guy. If somehow he is gone too, maybe CB Trae Waynes.

Dunno. Really surprised Scherff went so early.</font>

New York sports radio will either be good or bad to listen to tomorrow morning with this next pick.

Colts just traded for Mariota. He's going to park cars.

And the jets do the smart thing.

Jets defense.

<font color=goldenrod>Wilkerson is gonna ask for a lot of money this offseason, so Leonard Williams makes sense.</font>

DA BEARS get Jay Cutler some help.............again.

It a matter of Jay Cutler being good is the issue here.

<font color=goldenrod>Kevin White with the hottest gf of the draft so far</font>

Is the RB class really that bad this year?

ESPN seems to be trashing it saying none are 1st Rd quality except for 1 guy.

<font color=goldenrod>Giants are said to love Flowers and feel he could start at RT day one with the potential to be a star LT down the line. We'll see if that's where they go.</font>

<font color=goldenrod>There it is. Flowers.

Kiper says he's a reach at 9, but fuck him.</font>

Thank you lord Jesus

Every know it all analyst says you don't draft a RB in the first round.

Damn. Gurley will be a stud

Gurley had an ACL injury.

Would have went with someone else.

Dolphins got a good player picking Parker.

<font color=goldenrod>Melvin Gordon is an interesting pick for the Chargers</font>

I like the pick

Someone tell me, did the Bears draft some players with good potential? No idea who anyone in the draft is because I don't watch college sports.

<font color=goldenrod>Wow, Shane Ray to the Broncos</font>

Todd Gurley had a smoking hot white hoe. Grats Todd!

They drafted a guy who's fast enough to chase down Defensive players on all of Cutlers pick 6's.

If Landon Collins falls to the Colts, I'll be thrilled!

He won't get past Dallas. Better not

Cool. What did the Colts do? Did they end up trading the pick? Hope not. Love having a bunch of young guys. Especially with the additions of Gore and Johnson.

I think the Boys will shock you. I think they take Tevin Coleman.

Irvin was raving over Perriman, one of the better endorsements a WR can get. Wasn't really digging the pick before that though

Now watch as the Colts dont fill there thinnest position with Landon Collins and draft some WR.

Not a bad pick, would have liked Collins or Hollaman but Jones is good.

Byron Jones. I like it.

<font color=goldenrod>Laken Tomlinson to the Lions. Was getting 3rd round grades from a lot of teams but clearly the league saw first round potential since he was there in person.</font>

Reports are Pats have traded out of the first round.

Bunch of chatter around the net about how Shane Ray's 1st Round pick confirming the NFL being homophobic towards Micheal Sam since both players are about the same talent wise and won SEC defensive player of the year awards.

Difference being Sam coming out that he was gay and Ray getting busted with drugs before the draft.

Landon Collins should be the pick, but espn just went to commercial giving Ryan Grigson plenty of time to fuck this up .

FUCK MY LIFE!

I hate being right. Grigson is one of the worst GM's in the league.

Colts drafted a WR #makesnosense

<font color=goldenrod>Yeah WR makes less than zero sense for the Colts. Don't get that at all.</font>

Pats just debunked it. Knowing BB, probably was trying to do that even though he really needs to get some quality CBs and maybe Ss as soon as possible.

<font color=goldenrod>Dorsett, A. Johnson, Moncrief, Hilton, Fleener, D. Allen

Continue to ignore the offensive line and secondary</font>

<font color=goldenrod>LOL @ the one white guy at Damarious Randall's draft party</font>

Disappointed at the lack of booing for the Pack pick. Thought Bears fans would drown the announcement like Jets fans do for Pats picks in the past.

They booed the right amount. Bears fans made the commish say "with the 30th pick" two or three times. No need to insult the player on the biggest night of his career.

<font color=goldenrod>Pats should have just trolled the league by letting the clock run out on the pick just to see what happens.</font>

Replacement for Wilfork. Nice pick
