I can't even come up with a good Tompa Bay joke

Roger pls it's 1am.

Start picking

is this real life

By Dark PhaZe Go To Postis this real life

Is this just fantasy?

Who wrote this script

Gee I wonder who the Bengals will pick...

FINALLY 17 minutes later Cincy on the clock. I've had 16 man fantasy football drafts that would be in the 3rd round by then.

They really had to spend 20 mins to set this up then still give them 10 mins on the clock cmon

So the TV networks ask the teams not to put the pick in right away so all these dicks can talk about the same shit they've talked about for the last 3 months right?

By KP Go To PostSo the TV networks ask the teams not to put the pick in right away so all these dicks can talk about the same shit they've talked about for the last 3 months right?

Yep, ESPN and NFL Network collaborating on this. However, they also said any glitch that happens they'll stop and halt the draft.

By inky Go To PostGee I wonder who the Bengals will pick…

"Cincy picks ... Harrison Burrows, Midfielder from England" ... wait, GODDAMN COMPUTERS!!!"

Browns might legit pick Harrison Burrows

gotta hand it to video production, sheesh

Wow. totally unexpected pick with Burrow at #1.

Now time for Washington to break the draft and take Tua LOL

By The Frankman Go To PostWow. totally unexpected pick with Burrow at #1.

Now time for Washington to break the draft and take Tua LOL

please let it happen, QB is everything

We'll take Chase Young though, which is fine

Would be such a "EFF YOU" to Dwyane Haskins, who played behind zero line, a coach who hated him (Gruden) and an organizational philosophy that was so dysfunctional it wasn't funny. You're almost ending Haskins' career at that point; Rosen has yet to recover and probably will be with his 3rd organization soon.

is haskins even that good

I’d take Tua even having Haskins. Haskins ain’t worth missing generational talent like Tua

Young selected. Now if no one trades with Detroit something may happen with the Giants at #4.

By DY_nasty Go To Postis haskins even that good

Yes. It was widely known he'd need to sit the first year, stunned he actually played. He did get better as the year went along.

"sometimes life isn't fair"

lol espn football coverage still hasn't changed

I don't think I can take a CB that high tbh, particularly with some of the other talent available.

not in 2020

but detroit gonna detroit

Giants might take until the final minute because they are trying to trade down... Can't even follow Twitter because no one leaking picks and I've already seen on a few forums open bounties to 'hack' the NFL Draft process.

"Career special teams coach"

aite

Jeff Okudah is supposed to be pretty special tho...

I'm a little surprised they picked Thomas over Jedrick Willis and Trsitan Wirfs. He has the highest floor of the tackles but he had red flags about his desire and ability in the run game. But he's a great pass blocker and they needed someone to protect Daniel Jones from himself.

Giants selected Georgia OT Andrew Thomas with the No. 4 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft.

Thomas (6’5/315) started all three seasons in his time at Georgia, garnering All-American honors as a true freshmen at right tackle before taking home back-to-back first-team All-SEC privileges in his final two years after moving to left tackle as a sophomore. Pro Football Focus' No. 3 offensive tackle among 249 qualifiers last year, Thomas remains very technical in pass protection, allowing five sacks on 1,021 pass-blocking snaps across 41 career games, all the while showcasing the nastiness to excel in run-blocking as early as Week 1. The 21-year-old profiles as an opening day starter and potential jack-of-all-trades Pro Bowler for years to come.

lol

I don't know anything about college football, so someone just please throw a wrench into this thing already...

gettleman never changes

lol Thomas over Brown? hmm..

If Miami passes on Tua they deserve no success for the next 10 years. Herbert is nowhere as talented as Tua, the only issue is his durability and in an era where you can't hit NFL QBs, that's not a issue. Take Tua and the wins, Miami.

QBs die every day b

They got him

RIP young warrior

lol

Chargers now... the coach really loves Tyrod Taylor (?) so they may pass on QB here and take an O lineman.... Hell, they might take a WR here lol.

This is lame I miss the NBA madness

Brady Quinn shoulda been aite lol

this dude kind of a bum

Went with Herbert. It's a solid pick but he needs to get better with his accuracy and ability under pressure. There was some Jared Goff to him that he needs to learn how to get rid of, but at least he should be able to read defenses.

Herbert sux

He's not as good as Mariota and we saw how that worked out

Yeah he trash

cmc already the face huh

Why would you draft a Duck QB like ever?

Panthers lucked out

I don't trust anyone called Herbert, but if the Chargers are patient and let him sit for 1-2 seasons I can see him being alright.

By domino Go To PostPanthers lucked out

san diego and miami saved us tbh

By blackace Go To PostWhy would you draft a Duck QB like ever?

There used to be that kind of thinking about QBs that played in gimmicky college offenses and people automatically skipped over Pat Mahomes because of it... again, if you have a system you can tailor around your QB and the guy has the talent, things can work out.

Damn he’s as fast as Etienne
