I'm about over the "in these unprecedented times" speeches and preambles. Just go to the draft. The entire thing was set up and would have worked VERY quickly, but ESPN had to cram in their social bullshit, then their pretaped pieces about how players compare to others in the NFL. You'd see "The pick is in" graphic and have to wait another ten minutes for it to be announced because they had to exhaust all the crap they had produced beforehand.

That being said, the Giants took a guy who isn't a number 5 in the draft, and they look like their GM and Coach live in an unfinished basement.


I liked the set up, I liked the fact that we didn't have to see a crowd boo all the picks or cheer them all. Could have gone much quicker.

Look, we may be in a pandemic, but surely we haven't forgotten how television works.

I slept through it so I didn't care how long it was, although I managed to be between naps for the Packers' pick, which is all anybody* wants to talk about anyway.

*not me, though, I'm going back to sleep

Apparently the Carolina Panthers are the first team to use all their picks on defensive players (espn.com). That's not so shocking against a conference of gunslingers, and if Tampa Bay can't keep a pocket around Brady, the Panthers will clobber him a dozen times each game.

I like getting Bridgewater. I liked him in Minnesota. I liked him in New Orleans. The Panthers have a way of grabbing players I like from other teams.

Now let's see if the season starts before November.

I really like the Andrew Thomas pick.

And to be fair, Judge was drafting from his apartment near the facility and not at his house. Lighten up, Francis.

Yeah, everyone was improvising to some extent. Zac Taylor was supposed to have much better furniture and such for the Bengals draft, but the desk was delayed, so that's how you get shots like this:

Ravens vs. Steelers: Here we go again. I was hoping KC would put up a fight, but I guess Charlie was too busy packing his bags to lift a figure to come up with a coherent plan.
