Well it's us. Also the draft is unwatchable.

our boys will forget about it and show up on Friday

Draft is a decent watch in the first round until your team picks.

Only if you’re reasonably knowledgeable about who’s likely to be picked, of course. Otherwise it’s just random names being read out once every ten minutes.

[Mike]

It's just a wall of insufferable unaccountable noise. It's Mel Kiper jerking off on TV. It's garbage television and watching it should get you put on a f***ing list.

[Shak]

So should emptying your balls thinking about your cousin but I don’t give you s*** for your hobbies, do I?

[mozy]

Bucs pick at 5. Seems to be at least 5/6 top tier defenders in this draft so watch us trade down and pick someone else.

[B-more Mag]

God, I hate it when the 'Skins pick QBs in the draft.

Nate Sudfeld -- 2016, Round 6
Kirk Cousins -- 2012, Round 4 
Robert Griffin III -- 2012, Round 1
Colt Brennan -- 2008, Round 6, current backup (I guess)

To be fair, I also hate it when we trade for quarterbacks. Or pick up free agent quarterbacks.

Do we have to have a quarterback?

[B-more Mag]

It'd free up more space for another fullback. There aren't enough fullbacks.

Interesting place for a haymaker.

Most mocks I’ve seen have you taking Devin White.

What is your biggest need?

RGIII would have worked if you didn't play his leg smooth off.

[Pata]

Any good mocks to read? Shak?

Walterfootball has always been my go to but I'm always p*ssed off after spending time on that c***'s site (that also looks like it's from 1995).

I'd be happy with White I think. The knock on him is that inside linebackers don't have positional value for the top 5, but then you get to the playoffs and realise you can't play back 7 on D unless you can cover.

So assuming he's an elite level backer in all areas then fine by me

Tbf you said anyone who watches the draft should be on a list immediately after I said the draft was a decent watch.

The shot was justified

[Shak]

Nah nothing I’d particularly recommend, just random ones I’ve seen here and there.

WF is a s**** site and the dude seems like an idiot but he at least goes into some detail about his selections. His problem is that like most draftniks he fails to recognize that so much of the scouting process is a crapshoot.

[Beren]

The Action Network NFL podcast had a good episode with a mock draft recently, and also combined it with betting, an affliction I know you share with me

There was a great one on team win totals too, and how those lines will move once people start hyping up first round rookies (many of whom will invariably flop).

I think the emergence of players like David Johnnson, Kamara, Bell, Barkley etc is going to ultimately increase the importance of MLBs again. Teams are using their backs as part of the passing game for a lot more than checkdowns, teams are gonna need players who can cover them while also being able to hold their own taking on OL in the running game.

Players like Roquan Smith are the future if the position IMO, they’d have been safeties twenty years ago but that’s the way it’s going.

Given that you’ve got a quarter of your schedule against Kamara and McCaffrey for the next half decade (Falcons like throwing to the RB a decent bit too) an MLB who can cover would make a lot of sense.

I felt like you put too much shoulder in it because it never occurred to me that I was talking about you. But aiight, I can see your perspective. I indirectly called you a nonce and you overreacted suspiciously, but ultimately appropriately. Call it a draw.

[Chrisjraby]

I don't think we have enough picks in this draft to bother turning up for, so I'll count down to 2020
