I'm almost as excited about the 2nd round as I am about the first, TT might have a shot at OLB's English, Barwin, or Sintim.

I like this quote.......

Tony Augusty of the Detroit News has this advice for Stafford: "If you get cocky, remember: You play for the Lions."

Please, no Orakpo.

Orakpo is all straight ahead. He's a workout warrior. He's not a football player that can move. He can only go one direction, straight ahead, and NFL OT's are going to stone him cold.

lol

ohhhhhh

the nfl network has permission to show the inside of the packers war room

couldn't they find a more exciting team?

TT shows no emotion, and barely moves during the 12 hours

[Fritz]

3:00 is the first pick. 10 mins per pick, so we should pick short before 4:30. It's going to be exciting to see picks fall off the board. I know we'll all celebrate when Sanchez is picked (if it comes before us).

Not really, JH. You'll have t.v. timeouts and time for Mel Kiper to re-mold his helmet-head hairdo. It'll be, I'm guessing, closer to five p.m.

the 10 minute clock doesn't stop for TV. 10 minutes is 10 minutes.

You are correct, cp, but remember too that there is time between picks. Goodell doesn't just get to the Seahawks pick, and have the Seahawks rep walking up in the last twelve seconds left on their clock. Seems like the league gives teams time to walk up. Then there's the hemming and hawing and the dramatic pause while Jets fans cry out in anticipated anguish. Then there's the new #1 jersey of said team, and so on and so on.

I still think it'll be longer than an hour and a half before the Pack is on the clock.

I could see drafting a punter in the 6th or 7th round, last year was a joke. I like Tom Morstead, SMU.

we better not have to wait the whole 10 minutes for the lions to pick

the more I see almost all of the college DE's that NFL thinks could be OLB, I see the same thing. I love Orakpo, but I think we're going through a trial seperation period.

Maybe the first big trade of the day will be this...

Mc Shay trades Kiper for his hair. I don't know, Mel's molded hair (which he says his wife cuts for him) reminds me of a bad Play-Doh mold.

They spent some dough for those hair jobs.

Now that the Kitties are stupid enough to throw that much funny money at Joey Harrington the 2nd, it'll be interesting to see what else will happen.

See that New England now wants to trade out of the first round?! Man, there's more disinformation going on here than a Tom Clancy novel!

Ted is still a BPA guy, but I'd be happy with Tyson Jackson or Raji.

Kept hearing about the scenarios of Crabtree falling to us. Though it'd be a heck of a problem to have, I don't see it happening. Cleveland or Jax will pick him up first.

I'm all for soclal media and Twitter.. (twitter.com/digitaldean)

But some teams are actually going to post their pick on Twitter before announcing it at New York. May only be a matter of seconds, just find it kind of weird.
