I had ESPN on the TV muted and the McShay show on the phone with audio. So much of a better experience. I like seeing the graphics and the guys walk up on stage, but I simply cannot stomach the talking and bullshit narratives on that show any more. It’s a shame, used to be awesome. They fully ruined it and now the NFL Network is dying so that’s not even a great alternative.
Highly recommend second screening the show for tonight.
With the arrogance of the Sanders family, you can be sure they’re playing the “Tom Brady was taken in the 6th round” angle as much as they can.
Going into Day 2 here’s the next 20 best available (according to USAToday). We’re around 30 minutes away from the start.
The Bears are drafting 7th and 9th in the second round, so I’ll be watching the top of this round very closely.
I think it’ll be a surprise if Will Johnson, Mike Green, and Nick Emmanwori aren’t taken in the next 5 picks. I’m really hoping that the Bears can land Treveyon Henderson and Donovan Ezeiruaku with those two picks. I wouldn’t be opposed to trading back if Henderson comes off the board before us, but he’s the must-have guy here.
The Sanders slide will probably continue. Everyone things that either the Browns or Raiders will pull the trigger early tonight. The Saints can grab him if he slips and the Steelers don’t have a 2nd. If either Milroe or Shough get picked before him, he might be looking at a late night. Let’s hope the broadcast finds literally anything else to talk about.
Seahawks trading up, wonder who they are targeting. Probably not a QB, but maybe another OL or WR. Maybe Johnson/Green?
Almost guarantee it. They traded up to get Tyler Lockett and DK Metcalf in different drafts years ago, so I wouldn’t be surprised to see a WR here. But they also need another guard.
Whoever they are getting, it has to be someone they really want. They don’t do this very often.
Emmanwori. The one supposed 1st rounder I didn’t mention, lol.
Wow, a safety. Didn’t expect that. They must love this guy. It’s not a massive need for them, so I’m guessing they just see it as a big defensive upgrade, and figure there are enough guards and receivers they can still get someone decent later.
There goes Judkins…we dodged a bullet.
Browns passed twice on Sanders, wonder how far he falls now.
Dolphins swapping spots with the Raiders…another QB possibility.
Nope, the desperation for OLs rears its head. Starting to think the Bears should take Ersery just due to the scarcity.
God damn it, fuck!
I saw that and thought, “Omni is going to be pissed.”
Wild pick. All in on pass catchers I guess. Love the value here. But damn, Henderson hurts.
Damn, he’s a good one. That’s somebody I’d have loved to see in Seattle. That’s a good addition for Chicago
Shough to NO!
Not surprised, wondering who Pittsburgh is taking. Especially as QBs start to go.
Oooohhhh!. Shough is the 3rd QB off the board. Kellen Moore might see a little bit of himself in Shough.
Also…his girlfriend in going to win social media today.
He will get a chance to prove himself right away.
Called that. Let’s see how much we got back to drop back that far. They must have been going Henderson/Burden with these two.
There it is:
Bills get: Nos. 41, 72, 240
Bears get: Nos. 56, 62, 109
Moving up in the 3rd and getting back into the 4th round for a 7th.
Wonder if Kaleb Johnson will survive to pick 56.
Wife I think. He’s been in college a long time.
I guess I should be glad you like him since the Pats got him, but I know nothing about him. Why did you want him so much?
