Any one else think the draft was better when it was mid day. Lightning fast and mostly followed on line? The tsn/live streams have been gong shows, and painfully slow. 
 Making a big show of picking through the best of what’s left is like a tired old trope. 

An attempt to match the glitz and hype of the NFL draft with a production that is cable access level, what's not to love?

  • Its about getting more people in seats to come see the music act, and hoping a percentage of them will enjoy the football and game enough to come back for more. You complain about the CFL and TSN

we need to go defence heavy...front 7...and not plugs who only translate to a few yrs of decent ST play

A flyer on an Oline guy who may take 2 yrs to get here, and a guy who has no NFL interest whatsoever....I also dont look at certain players with no upside coming into the pro atmosphere, as thats something you can't assume...Much the same as guys who appear to be ready to roll and fizzle away a yr and half later...

After round 1...maybe 2...after seeing some of the dust settling I would like to see us swing a trade as well if in our case remaining picks are just picks for the sake of having picks and dont fill a need for us

That’s a damn good way to put it. 
 

In general while I enjoy drafts a bunch of sports I follow, the lay out and time seems like a dinosaur. I feel like a really good podcast style setting with portions that involve each team and their picks in a fast paced format would reach todays target demo for sports a lot better.

 If we take 2 guys on the front 6 in our first 3-4 picks along with 1 ol I think we will be in great shape.

I'm glad the draft is during prime time... Ya it's **** quality compared to other leagues, but it's still our league and our draft. I'm glad they're at least trying. I mean the Jets are ****** so whatever... May as well get excited about football.

My draft wish list for our top 4 picks  are De Luke brubacher, dt Daniel okpoko, a top 9 ol, and wr Kevens clercius. 
 

We’ve got 3 picks in the top 20, brubacher would have to be our top pick unless his nfl tc invite really cools his stock off, then some one would have to fall and we’d need to get real lucky to scoop one of those guys probably clercius at 28. An nfl bound ol like Hergel would be the dream. 

The global draft similarly has a bunch of higher end nfl bound prospects. A good punter, one of the dl and another lber would be great.

It is fun, this will be my 3rd and likely final year. I'm also coaching flag football for my son's team and I absolutely love doing that.

I don't believe any professional person would nuke their career prospects by making false allegations. After making allegations such as this her career prospects certainly took a hit as she will likely be labelled to much of a hot button to hire. If this was a simple case of contract not renewed she probably has a quality job in no time. However, make the allegation and employers will be hard to find. Therefore, I doubt she is lying completely about it.

Coaching is a ton of fun... I'm coaching U13 girls softball starting tonight... really looking forward to the season kicking off.  I did flag football a number of years back, but I was in a bit over my head with that one... still fun though.
