Re: 2015 NFL Draft thread
I don't mind the "Draftniks" as much as the Gold Carpet interviews. I have come to find that most football players, I like seeing them play, but hate listening to them talk. With a few exceptions. (Adrain Peterson is not one of the exceptions)The Breeze wrote: I can't watch any of the draftniks and their mockery. I happen to be hanging with a Rams fanatic but we'll probably be more interested in the NBA playoffs tonight as far as actual action and follow the draft online...or flip the channels.
Gotta admit, between AD and the general draft buzz-blah, I'm feeling burnt out a bit......just wanna know who we get.

Don't hate on my Buckeyes. Some of the best Vikings went to Ohio State.
Including now, HOF WR #80 Cris Carter

Re: 2015 NFL Draft thread
Will the Bucs trade us the #1 pick for Peterson and Patterson?
Will fire shoot out of my backside if they do?
Will sensationalistic hyperbole devoid of logic devour the rumors of yore?
Hmmmm, maybe.

Per @BobHoltzmanESPN, #Bears making late push for No. 2 pick. They want Cutler involved in deal. Lasting implications even if deal not done

Re: 2015 NFL Draft thread
Spielman was so adamant about trading down in his press conference that I'm wondering whether he has plans to trade up.
Some years the talent just stinks through and through. One guy redrafted the 2005 draft a week ago, and Ryan Fitzpatrick and Matt Cassel were two of his first rounders. Even if he's wrong, just the fact that those two guys were in the conversation as being top 32 players coming out one year is enough to tell you all you need to know. If this is one of those years, it's better to just stay put and get one of the guys who stinks at our own pick rather than getting cute and dropping down for three guys who stink.

Re: 2015 NFL Draft thread
I kinda want to Philly trade up just to see how much they give up. What they're rumored to be offering is nuts.

Goodell sounds like Jeff Ross that guy who roasts people.
