Anyone watching tonight? I'll be at a Stone Temple Pilots concert but will be watching my phone - eager to see if the Eagles pull off this Mariotta rabbit out of a hat.
I'll be glad when it's over as I'm tired of hearing about...but in the same breath I am curious to see if Big Balls Chip can pull it off without selling the farm!

I will be trying to watch tonight. My Raiders hopefully will take Cooper or White to add some offense for Carr.
It will be interesting to see if Peterson goes anywhere tonight.

Looking for the Raiders to take Cooper, a polished ready to compete in the NFL product that has outstanding route skills. We've taken enough guys that can't run a route to save their lives, Heynoob Bey anyone? The knock on White is he doesn't really pick up routes easy and he's not great at running them. I'll take Cooper, the only real question to me is if Williams is available at #4 do they take him hoping to build on with Mack and have a stud defense, the general conscious is that Williams is the best player in the draft based on physical stature and athletic ability, I would not cry if they took him.

I'll be watching the Rangers-Capitals game. After the first couple picks, the draft is about as exciting as watching paint dry.

'Bout sums up my thoughts as well....

You can have the Wizards, but I will be blipping between the Caps and the Nats tonight.

Agree, Williams wouldn't be a bad pickup. Given the trade talk they may even be able to move down a couple to get him. Heaven knows defense needs a lot out of this draft too.
Raiders pick so high each year Adam and I only have to watch the first few minutes of the draft and then catch the recap

I'm at the local cigar lounge (The Mark) and waiting for the draft to start -- cigar in hand

Wearing a #43 black Polamalu jersey.
Primed with Hebrew National polish sausage on sesame seed rolls with kosher pickles, followed by a Liga Undercrown Gran Toro, then a Jaime Garcia Reserva Especial Belicoso.
Hoping we pick CB Marcus Peters from up the road at U of Washington. Seen almost every game he played. He is a bad character but a good corner. We need playmakers!

We need a safety, Bart. We could probably get Landon Collins. But I think he'll go higher than the projected 29.
If we miss out on him, I'd be ecstatic if we picked up Malcom Brown. I think he'd flourish in the Steeler's system and flounder, or be average at best, most anywhere else.

Adam, idiot is being kind. Winston is a cross between JaMarcus Russell and PeeWee Herman.
NO way he makes it. A wasted #1 pick by the Yucs.
I enjoyed the draft Thursday night. Will be better tonight without Chris Berman.

Berman really started to ramble at one point, seemed to lose his train of thought (if he had one), you could see Gruden laughing at times.

Pittsburgh had a good draft. That Linebacker from Miami is a beast.
