Cam Newton released, doesn't seem too happy about it either

 

Steelers have a tight end at last, Eric Ebron from the Colts

 Looks like Brady has become their GM as well as their QB.

Possibly the least surprising “retirement” reversal of recent years.

Obviously the draft is going to be a little different this year, but I’m still going to stay up and watch it. As always, I’m really looking forward to it, anyone else going to be staying up late for it?

I think it’s 1am it all kicks off. You think the Lions will trade out their first pick? They’re sitting pretty there with a couple of teams desperate to get the QB they need. Could end up being a very good draft for the Lions if they don’t blow it.

:lol: come on man, it's the Lions!

 

The talk is Dolphins from 5 to 3. We'll see.

:rofl: was trying to keep your spirits up

 

 

All the talk recently is that the Dolphins will maybe take Herbert now, I still think they will take Tagovailoa. It’s definitely going to be an interesting start to this draft with a few needing QB’s. As a Colts fan though, not that much to get excited about in this draft.

I honestly wouldn't be shocked if it went QB QB QB tonight.

I could see the scenario where the Bengals take Burrows, Chargers/Patriots trade up for Tua and then the Dolpins panic and trade up for Herbert.

I really can’t see the Pats trading up for a QB. I’ve read plenty good stuff about the progress Stidham has made, think they will ride with him and possibly pick someone up (maybe Jordan Love) if he falls to them. Redskins,Lions and Giants with loads of options. It would be hard to pass up on taking Chase Young, but if a team could get picks and still end up landing him, you can’t get a much better start to a draft.

I think the Herbert to Dolphins rumours are a smokescreen...or I hope they are! I like watching Oregon in the college game and I just don't see it with Herbert.

Yup, as is the Giants saying they are looking at QB’s, aye right, but you’ve got to play the game.

As a steelers fan i don't have any need to tune in until tomorrow night as there's no danger we'll trade up and our 1st pick this year is @ 49

Not great, Colts don’t pick until 34 either😞 but still love watching it all unfold. Come on, give us your first 5 picks just for a bit of fun?

I don't think that'll be far off to be honest. Simmons could go to the Giants though, may be my only change to that.

I could see that pick too, they have a need, but for me  the Giants really need to protect their franchise QB and Wills looks like the man. Just wish the Colts after picking Luck had the thought process to protect their QB, look how that played out😞

2 / 3 / 5 picks could all be traded. I think the only 2 guaranteed not to are 1 and 4. Bengals are never passing up Burrows and Gettleman never trades back.

 

Of course, the opposite will now happen.

I’m not sure about that trade. The only reason for the Dolphins to trade with the Lions is if they’re 100% set on Tua and think the Chargers might bite. If the Chargers were that set on Tua, then I would have thought they would jump at 2 with the Redskins. If the Dolphins aren’t 100% then there is no need for a trade as the Giants won’t go QB and they would still be guaranteed Herbert if the Chargers jumped. All about opinions though🤷🏼‍♂️…I get all excited at this time of year:lol:

I just think the Chargers will be trying to trade with the  Lions, but the Dolphins have enough draft picks to beat them to the punch. Agreed that the Chargers could trade with the Redskins too, but again the Dolphins could trump them, and I think the cost of trading to #2 will be too much for both teams, especially if the Redskins really want Young.

 

Will be interesting to see what happens though, I'm sure this year even the media know less than usual as there won't have been the same social interactions that they would normally have with teams. I've seen people saying that we'll be shocked at the differences in the players that the media have ranked high compared to what the teams have.

 

I know what you mean about excited, even more so that this is the closest to live sports I've had in weeks/months/forever :lol:

Just got a feeling they won't risk Tua due to the hip injury and instead stick with Fitz this season, trade out Rosen for a 4th rd pick (probably to the Jags) and double down with 2 development QB's from Hurts, Eason or Fromm.
