I seem to recall an instance where we went to bed after either day 1 or day 2 thinking we were getting a top 10 pick the next day and we ended up with the first pick. I looked back 5 years though and couldn't find it. Perhaps my memory is not what it used to be. Or perhaps my memory is not...

And its a stretch pick because why? Because you say it is? What makes you think you know more than Gute?

Its cool to have some sort of connection with a player. Kinda sucks that he went to the vikings then. Closest I ever came to knowing a professional athlete was when a friend of my brother was drafted by the Dodgers back in the late 70s. He played in the minors for a few years until injury and...

If Williams and Odunze live up to their hype I kinda hope we do. So far no real surprises except the lack of trades...oops didn't realize the Jets vikings trade. Great for the Jets.

Well, I'm off to bed. As often as I get up to pee I should be awake in plenty of time to see the Packers pick

And just like in fantasy drafts it seems that everyone likes to take the maximum allotted time. I'm just glad those are usually limited to a couple of minutes or less.

Yeah, I don't see him making it to 9 though, at least I hope he doesn't. You got the Cardinals, Giants and Chargers all needing wide outs. I've seen mocks that have each of these teams trading with the vikings (which would mean the Bears would still be in the running) and the Falcons which...

I would think the team moving up would give more mainly because they are likely to be the ones initiating the deal. Gute calls #20 and says he wants to deal. #20 is going to want a bit more than equal because Gute requested it AND they are giving up a higher pick. I really don't know how a GM...

Right. If he still proves to be a turnstile he won't make the team, if he is playing it means he made the team and is better than some other option. They are not going to keep a guy that sucks much less play him. I see no downside to this signing.

Not really a reply to you but your comment leads me to my point better. Is it really crazy reaching once you get past the first couple of rounds. I'd argue that even in the first round we don't know what any GM's board looks like. A consensus board of draft pundits could be very different...

All the better.

cowboys without a doubt. The only team worse is the vikings.

Again it's Gute freeing up options for the draft. If a couple of highly ranked OL guys drop to the right spots we can take them anyway and this guy fights for a roster spot or if another player Gute covets drops he won't feel pressured to skip him for more OL depth. Not that I think he would...

How can green be banned? All the pictures I've seen the turf is green. NFL says to the Eagles "I guess you get a home game in Philly after all" Sao Paulo "hey, just kidding. We love green. You can both wear green if you want. "

Or maybe it won't matter at all since this is an American football game and has nothing to do with the Corinthians and their arch rivals.
