extra coverage and shytty mock draft hell is a result of pushing the draft back...

word is the NFL didnt lock down the venue in time, but im not sure how accurate that is

either way, i love the primetime 3 day format but it needs to go back to late April. theres too much of a lapse between the combine/workouts and the draft. talking heads get too pressed and all these extra storylines pop up

I went and saw that Kevin Costner movie about the NFL draft last week (I was literally the only one in the theater) :pachaha:

But every QB prospect in the movie was white and all the running backs and defensive guys were Black...I think it's just subconciously ingrained at this point of how a QB should "look" and "talk"..The fact that Teddy isn't a super freak athlete that runs a 4.3 probably has most of these mock draft guys confused about how he woild fit it....

Nah, Cam really brought out that old fashioned racism out of white people... like Django type shyt.

It was there but where was he taken? First overall. If you got it, the people making the real decisions in the organization will take you. Doesn't excuse the cism, but it shows you can't put too much stock into "draft experts" which is the point of this thread.

Look at EJ Manuel and Geno. Manuel might've been drafted too high and Geno seems like he was drafted in the right place. It's up to the teams, not the TV personalities.

I saw Bridgewater pick apart my Gator defense two years ago in the Sugar Bowl. I saw clips of Bridgewater's pro day. It didn't even look like it was the same dude. His throws were so off and shaky during the pro day. In all honesty, it just puts into question which side of Bridgewater you'll get :manny:

I thought even in high school he was going to get picked apart going into the NFL. He was a highly rated prospect but that throwing motion :scusthov:

I hate to say it but brehs will have to accept this as more and more black QB's are in that typical pocket QB realm.

Base your draft on a glorified backyard passing practice rather than actual game tape and results brehs

The NFL pushing the draft three weeks later is the worst thing that could have happened to NFL coverage.

I'm literally ignoring all NFL related reports at this point. It's just "misdirection" which is idiotic OR a journalist trying to get some hits on their website. I don't even want to watch the draft now.

Never thought I'd be sick of draft coverage....but I cant even watch anymore. It's awful. I will watch the draft but I hope the ratings tank. Pigs get fat.

It's a shame really. I used to love watching the draft but having it in May plus starting it on a Thursday and stretching it through the whole weekend is :camby:

Everything NFL related doesn't need to be a big production

NFL sent me my advance wristband email. Thankfully basketball and baseball blocked out much of the football coverage for me so I won't be overwhelmed when I attend.

Yeah for sure. The NBA playoffs, the Rangers and the Yankees have distracted me.

I miss the Saturday draft...when it was just about football.
