It’s never! They pick a DT. ---

Jesus, Harmon looks like someone just died. Probably happy tears but that’s quite the look. ---

This Hampton pick to the Chargers makes so much sense. Seems like every pick so far has been almost too logical. The biggest downside to this pick is that it makes it less likely that the Bears get Henderson at 39. ---

Two very uninspiring picks from the division rivals. Feeling good about that. ---

Giants trade up to the 1st round. Has to be a QB. Hoping not Sanders for all the reasons that have been coming out this week. ---

I’m hoping the Texans got decent compensation for the pick. ---

Maybe the most surprising thing to happen in the draft and they go to commercial. Bad timing ---

While the Giants taking Dart at 3 might be a stretch, this dramatically increases my belief that he’ll end up a Giant somehow. Schoen feels like a guy that will get attached to the QB he probably watched a lot of casually. I don’t know if it’s a trade back into the first thing or a top of the 2nd round pick. This also reduces the odds that Sanders is the pick at 3 in my mind. Called it, ha! ---

I’m curious how well Green Bay/Fox valley is doing in hosting the draft – anything noticeably good/bad? Brian ---

Just looking at the TV, seems like the crowd all went home after the Green Bay pick. Giving middle-aged Midwesterner energy there. They don’t stay out past 10 in cow country. ---

Falcons just went hog wild with Edges. Seems like they gave up a shit load for this pick. Waiting on the final details. ---
