Re: NFL Off Topic

The format now is pretty good. 1st round by itself, 2nd & 3rd together. 4th-7th together.

They'll probably give 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and possibly 4th it's own day. Then 5th-7th together. Maybe 4/5 and 6/7.

Re: NFL Off Topic

Moving the entire draft around is a great idea. Moving each day and selling the rights to one network is awful.

Re: NFL Off Topic

3 days barely holds my attention, not sure how 4 changes that unless they did a round here in Vegas.

Re: NFL Off Topic

Well, other than the fact that the Rams D-line is already STACKED and it will be tough for him to get any kind of playing time, or even make the team at all for that matter.

He was a 7th round pick. I think it's safe to say he could've gone to any team and been lucky to make a starting rotation in 2014. His accomplishments in college show that he's got some potential. Better for him to learn on a team with this much talent at his position AND in an area full of fans that already love him for the football player he is.

As long as the network is the NFL Network, I have no problem with it.

Who cares if they move each day? Granted, I don't know why anyone would attend a day 3, but whatever.

Re: NFL Off Topic

Yea please get ESPN away from it and especially Gruden...he was painful to hear with his over zealous praise of Manziel.

I like the idea of changing the venue but the 3-day format should not be extended. It's not a bad setup as is. 4-days is just overkill

But what if it ends up on Fox?! Terry Bradshaw breaking down the draft?

And that's pretty much the reason switching the location by day is stupid, especially if they stay in New York for the first round all the time.

And what happens to the people who get invited? "Well you didn't get drafted on day 1, so we're gonna fly you out to Seattle for day 2. Sorry about that." *Not drafted day 2* "Hey, you're going to Dallas tomorrow!"

Re: NFL Off Topic

People don't like this?

I see no reason why the NFL shouldn't rotate where the draft is. There is interest, and to be honest, Radio City Music Hall is just...kind of boring, IMO.

It's the DRAFT. Why do we need to make the DRAFT more exciting? The only other draft that is even on non-sport specific TV is the NBA Draft and that's because it takes as long as half of the first round of the NFL Draft does.

Gotta make money on every stage of the production cycle.

The NBA draft is exactly why the NFL started turning this into a big event. It's just not built the same way and it's silly trying to get the same kind of excitement out of it.

It's also silly to complain bc they get ratings, and I'm watching with everybody else (at least the first couple of rounds). But I couldn't agree with you more. I really wish the draft and the presesaon were all about the players and treated like broadway shows treat dress rehearsals. I want the best possible teams playing at the highest possible levels when the games start, and all these changes for the fans BEFORE the season has a negative effect on the end product.

Re: NFL Off Topic

The format now is ****ing ****ty. Give me Round 1-3 and 4-7 as two days at the most. The draft would be half as long if they announced the *** **** picks as soon as they're turned in.

Re: NFL Off Topic

Moving the draft city to city doesnt excite me. Frankly it doesnt matter where the draft. I dont see the big deal there.

It's just something else the people that should be worrying about putting our favorite team together have to deal with. Do you really want your management team hopping on a plane 4 days in a row and setting up new war rooms all over the country... just so a different group of faces can boo the commissioner?
