There was just a #boothecommisioner commercial, wow.

tarcone · 04-23-2020, 07:12 PM

I feel like Im the only one here. What of I set up a zoom meeting and anyone who wants to join can? Then we can have a live discussion. Anyone in?

tarcone · 04-23-2020, 07:15 PM

Meeting is set up

ID is 599-067-9479

There is a waiting room. I will let you in if you post here

Man I thought I wanted to watch the draft and then the 15 minute blitz of treacle killed my enthusiasm.

Edward64 · 04-23-2020, 07:16 PM

Virtual boos was a good effort.

I thought I was just an insensitive bastard for wanting to turn on the draft and ignore all the bull shit. Then I get hit with 15 minutes of Covid reminders and Dr. Fauci speaking at the draft for whatever reason.

tarcone · 04-23-2020, 07:18 PM

Taking Tua is a huuugggeeee risk

tarcone · 04-23-2020, 07:21 PM

My favorite QB is Jalen Hurtz

Yeah, then followed by a possibly animatronic Goodell assuring me that "we'll find other ways to have fun virtually" in the least convincing manner possible.

This has all been cringey as hell so far.

tarcone · 04-23-2020, 07:21 PM

No takers on a Zoom meeting? Just putting it out there.

Edward64 · 04-23-2020, 07:27 PM

Congrats Bengals. I hope he becomes your franchise QB

tarcone · 04-23-2020, 07:27 PM

Sam Bradford was an incredible athlete

tarcone · 04-23-2020, 07:30 PM

As the fans boo the commish, I boo you guys on not taking me up on a zoom meeting. BOOOOOO

Meeting ended.

Haha.

I am hoping the Lions don't trade the third pick so I can stop watching in ten minutes.

Iowa beats Ohio St. this season. You heard it here first

sterlingice · 04-23-2020, 07:40 PM

I haven't watched the NFL Draft in years. Have they used the NFL Primetime music all that time or is it just because they brought back NFL Primetime?

SI

HAHA. If the NFL wants it, it will be done

Honolulu_Blue · 04-23-2020, 07:41 PM

Predictable, boring move by the Lions. Stay at 3, take Okudah, another lateral move following the loss of Slay. The Lions will remain terrible for yet another year. I can’t stand Quinntricia.

tarcone · 04-23-2020, 07:42 PM

Lions could have traded the 3 and gotten a quality DB later plus more

tarcone · 04-23-2020, 07:43 PM

New York Giants select Tristan Wirfs, OT University of Iowa.

Thomkal · 04-23-2020, 07:45 PM

Where are the trades already?

JPhillips · 04-23-2020, 07:48 PM

Have three recruits from the same school ever gone 1-2-3?

tarcone · 04-23-2020, 07:49 PM

Dumb, dumb, dumb. Wirfs is a monster than can play both tackles

tarcone · 04-23-2020, 07:50 PM

Really? Battled tested? Didnt Wirfs play in the B1G?

tarcone · 04-23-2020, 07:54 PM

5 years from now I bet Wirfs has more pro bowls than the Georgia guy

tarcone · 04-23-2020, 07:54 PM

sabotai · 04-23-2020, 07:57 PM

Thomas, Wirfs or Wills. I would have been happy with any of them. Mostly I'm happy they didn't draft Becton. (save this post and check back in 5 years)

I'm getting the impression we're seeing odd timing where like some families know what is going on while others are being shown just as they are finding out.

It's not like he was taken by perennial winners like the Patriots.

BishopMVP · 04-23-2020, 08:02 PM

Shades of last year with Gettelman going outside the box at 5. Damned if I know if Thomas, Wirfs, Wills, or Becton will be better, but it sure seems he could've traded down a few spots & gotten his guy + another asset. (Also what was with Gettelman putting a mask on after the pick? Is he trying to show solidarity during NY media interviews?)

Its almost like this is a geographic draft

sabotai · 04-23-2020, 08:04 PM

ESPN had their montage of QBs falling in the draft. Tua didn't fall, but they played it anyway.
