buc em R1 you cool with going Swift?
Are you hearing that’s who we’re going with or something?
I’d love him but idk if 14 is a lil high for him.

Sounds like everything will be remote, 32 War Rooms (with not many people in them) and maybe a couple conference rooms with others. Roger will be in Draft headquarters and make the official announcements, not sure about the players......probably a lot of Facetime stuff thru the networks. I'm not 100% sure. Just my guess.

I know this is one of the dudes that we could take to solve our need at RT but I don’t see a top 15 pick here. His footwork looks rough. Looks like somebody who should actually maybe be moved to OG in the NFL.

What's the general consensus on CeeDee Lamb vs Jerry Jeudy?
Is Ruggs the same caliber or a notch below?

Dude doing wayyyyy too much... as long as they maintain the whole social distancing with everything, zero reason they can’t keep things going
between zoom, Skype, FaceTime, WhatsApp and other programs very easy to access guys
For him and what he does, I could see things being hard.. for him
Only guys I legit feel bad for are guys with medical concerns and guys who didn’t get invited to the combine especially smaller school guys
the guys who actually got invited to the combine and didn’t maximize that chance, that’s on them

Schefter has been being a little b*tch about all of this since before free agency. Hasn’t said a peep about it while he started reporting on all his free agency news but now he’s back to being a little b*tch about a corporation holding video conferences to select players. “Carnage in the streets”.....this ************ thinks there’s zombies eating people’s limbs off in broad daylight out here.

Yeah I think it'll be fine and this isnt like the UFC and Dana White doing whatever the **** he was trying to push
I remember Schefty was visibly frustrated even FA was going as scheduled weeks ago so I'm not surprised he feels this way
But I don't blame how any side feels in regards to this tbh

Honestly, I’d argue for the guys about to be drafted
it’s better to have the draft as soon as possible, since their money is pretty much tied to draft slot
the minor details of the contract can be negotiated remotely.. and once agreed the contract itself doesn’t need to be signed in the team’s building.. you can sign electronically but worst case just get it printed and need a witness
but sooner draft happens quicker those guys could get paid.. cause funds could just be wired

Bingo.
Ask the draftees, bet they want to get on their team and sign a contract ASAP.

Overwhelming majority of the guys ain’t signing big endorsement deals and can wait things out
sooner they get signed, sooner they can get paid.. and that has zero to do with when season starts
feel like something happened that made this register too close to home For dude

Remembering an old NFL countdown piece from a few years ago, Schefter ended up married to the widow of either a first responder or someone in the towers on 9/11, so I wouldn't be surprised if that plays a part towards his sensitivity on the matter.
I do disagree with him, but I understand and ain't mad about it. Rough times.

Schefter getting to be like Woj. You're paid to REPORT news, not try to predict or be the news.
This is why ESPN falls off. They hire grinders tapped into pure info then give them cameras and make them feel like they have a voice.
Shut the **** up Adam. No one needs you during the draft anyways ****head. You don't know anything about the prospects. Announce contracts and be thankful for that.

Honestly I’ve been disappointed as hell at the draft coverage on both espn and nfl network
would think they would be doing deep dives into each nfl team and the rosters and dictions rivals and opponents and potential fits within the schemes for guys who could be within that range.. trade up candidates and targets and even trade down potential
but back to Adam, dude was pushing 1 round per night/day just couple days ago.. also would think he would appreciate that giving something to watch on tv keeps folks home and also districts from the terrible stuff going on

Reminds me of Costas. I used to like him during the 90s for his work with the NBA, MLB and the Olympics, but his NBC days were cringeworthy...always on his soapbox at halftime.
I hope that's not the case here and it's just something he feels like expressing for whatever. One-offs never hurt nobody.

Yeah we're in a weird time rn. People process this all differently and we never how it personally affects someone else unless they come out and say it themselves.Reminds me of Costas.

Like I said me personally? I'm good with the draft going forward for multiple reasons but I cant be mad if someone feels a different way *shrugs*
Was "carnage in the streets" a bit much? Maybe..maybe not...but we all don't live the same path going through this...It's good ppl should be mindful of that.
Anyways, I said all that in hopes Eason really doesnt become a Patriot. Danny Shelton was enough

I really wish the Vikings would trade Anthony Harris for more picks. I want A.J. Evanescence and Winfield Jr. In the 1st.
