Do you like it starting on a Thursday night instead of on the weekend? And who do you think will be the first pick?

dumb!dumb!dumb! moving the draft to "primetime" was an idiotic move! the draft on saturday morning(round one) was a football holiday; you'd get up early, put on espn and spend all day watching the draft. people planned their weekends around the draft.nothing like eating a bowl of cereal at 9:00 in the morning while mel kiper broke down the top 10 prospects- while listening to the local coverage on sports talk radio. now its like the nba draft; my arizona cards picked the linebacker out of texas? and then WAIT TILL THE NEXT DAY FOR THE 2ND ROUND PICK? NONSENSE!the draft went from "can't wait"! to "its pretty good". PUT IT BACK ALL DAY SATURDAY!

YOU NEED SIRIUS RADIO. You would love the NFL channel, it is the best thing on radio. Every morning you have Randy Cross and Peter King, then you have Rich Gannon and Adam Shine, then Ross Tucker and "the people's GM" Pat Kerwin. If you listening to them for one day you would go out and buy a radio that same day. They interview EVERY coach EVERY week during the season, and they don't pull any punches. It is amazing to listen to if you are an NFL fan.
I wasn't very happy with it either, but I also haven't been happy with the 4PM start either, it was just to drawn out, and I really think that first round needs to be cut down in time. I remember last year watching ESPN when they had to scramble to find ANYTHING on Heyward-Bay.

It will be interesting to see what the Lions do if Suh isn't there. I have heard they have already talked about maybe moving down in the draft, and still taking McCoy. Either way I think that Detroit will be happy with either Suh or McCoy. Your defensive line is really shaping up with Vanden Bosh and either Suh or McCoy. I heard you guys are looking at RB in the second round, but who knows what will happen if there is a run on lineman in the first they may have to take a RB no matter what.
