Huh. I didn't think they'd take King. I'll take it.

Anyone know what the Jags gave up?

These picks are coming in sooooo slowly!

GB : I'm fine with it. Cam Robinson is gone. I suppose Lapwill follow soon.

I have a hunch we go DB.

McDowell to Seattle with Lamp there. Wow. Rick Spielman approach to the O-line continues.

Robinson is gone. Why in the hell are we sitting on our picks and not moving up! Trader Rick is not doing what he needs to do, Move up and add Lamp now. I dont see him sitting there when we pick.

You're telling me. I'm about to fall asleep. I'm glad rick hasn't traded up. Hopefully patience will pay off.

Don't hate on my Buckeyes. Some of the best Vikings went to Ohio State.

Watch him trade out and we'll have to wait even longer... these commercials are driving me nuts!

Dalvin Cook's hamstring must be worrying people a lot more than anticipated. Someone waste a pick on Kizer already!
