It's NFL draft day! cheers What kind of crazy stuff will go down, will we love or hate the picks from our teams? Who knows! lol

I take my prediction of the Bears taking a QB back if the Browns are taking a QB #1 as it's looking. That's the QB I had the bears taking. I just hope my Lions pick a good player at 21. Don't let me down!

Oh, I thought you were talking about the "Kevin Costner Talks on Phones" movie...

God, that movie is pretty terrible.

Anyway, the Browns would take a QB #1 in a weak QB draft. (Which is why i want the Bears to do anything but take a QB)

The Colts have the 15th pick in the draft, which is the highest they've picked in the 1st round since 2002. I've heard rumors that they're going to trade back for additional picks and yesterday I saw a rumor that they're enamored with Christian McCaffrey and are trying to trade into the top 10 to get him. I would be VERY surprised to see them trade up.

They should be drafting ryan ramczyk. Draft O-linemen all day until Andrew Luck can survive a season.

I've got a feeling they're going with an edge rusher in the first round, then a CB in the 2nd. From there it will probably be mostly defense with maybe 1 or 2 OL picks.  The OL was actually pretty solid the 2nd half of the season last year.  The big problem early on was keeping everyone healthy.

There have been some rumblings of the Lions taking a TE at 21 and I work with this older, kind of over react kind of guy at work who also happens to be a Lions fan and if they take a TE he'll flip his lid lol I don't think they will, but you never know if he's BPA on their board. I think it'll be a WR/RB/ Defensive player (really could be any position almost).

Connection to watch very closely: #Miami TE David Njoku has a potential landing spot with his old coach — #Lions TE coach Al Golden. No. 21

I wonder if the Bears could trade down from #3, and if they would. But I wonder who at #3 teams would be dying to get

From everything I've read this draft is completely up in the air in terms of where players will be picked. Ian Rappaport called it the most unpredictable draft he can ever remember. Should make for a pretty exciting first night.

Sad thing is, I still probably won't watch. Typically I just watch until the Bears first pick. But since they're picking #3 and I'm going to a work function after work today, they'll have picked before I get home

^^^ Seems like a pretty solid pull. From a design standpoint, did they really need to put "HIGH GLOSS" on the damn card? Shouldn't the visual of the gloss finish and the /10 be enough to distinguish it without muddying up the card with that stupid flag?

this design is definitely lacking, but they've put "high gloss" as far back as I can remember

I'm having all sorts of luck... well at least slightly better than break even luck.
I got 3 Matthews and a Nylander out of series 1. Ended up with two BGS 9.5s, and gonna use the 3rd to Matthews to get a Laine and more. had enough other YGs+inserts to get all 3 series 1 Hawks YGs to gold foil level (25 of each)
And series 2 is off to a decent start with the Carlo, and a different Exclusives YG and Canvas YG
