[quote=killromo;442781]The Skins should hire mel kiper to help out with the draft and then give him some other bs publicist position for the rest of the year. How much do you think it would take for him to be exclusive?[/quote]

3 times what he is making now, private use of Redskin 1, Snyders 1st born son, and a Chris Cooley autographed Jersey.

Re: ESPN vs NFL Network Draft Coverage
 

Name the person that said the (paraphrased) quote below and bonus if you remember who the player drafted was.

"Who the hell is Mel Kiper? Has he ever put on a jockstrap before?"

Re: ESPN vs NFL Network Draft Coverage
 

Bill Tobin refering to passing up Trent Dilfer for Jim Harbaugh.

Re: ESPN vs NFL Network Draft Coverage
 

Ive had enough draft coverage from espn already and the draft hasn't even started yet... an hr and a half special mock draft, give me a break. Id rather see some coverage on the nba playoffs, nascar, baseball, ect. Sorry if that offends you die hard football fans, but I'm a sports fan, not just a football fan.

Re: ESPN vs NFL Network Draft Coverage
 

I like watching NFLN for the draft, just because I don't like ESPN's analysts, although I don't like Mike Mayock either, he always sounds like he thinks his opinion is always the best lol. The good thing about having two versions of the draft though is that when one hits commercial I can just switch back to the other.

Re: ESPN vs NFL Network Draft Coverage
 

Whoa, when did this thread come back?

Anyway I'm going to have NFL Network streaming this time around since I'll be home for the weekend and our Comcast package doesn't include NFL Network. Honestly though, ESPN's Todd McShay vs Mel Kiper dynamic is getting pretty annoying, they always seem to be ragging on each other in the same manner that Clayton and Salsbury use to.

Plus NFL Network is probably going to have Casserly and Mayock covering the draft this week which is great because Charlie does a good job in my opinion of providing information, weather it be on the mindset of a GM/Scout or analysis of a particular player, even though he seems to constantly butcher names. I mean hell, the other day Casserly listed the Cowboys Wide Outs as TO, Crayton, and Joey Galloway. However other then slip ups like that, he's been pretty good.

I also like Mayock better then Kiper, and how can you not like Rich Eisen?

Re: ESPN vs NFL Network Draft Coverage
 

I prefer NFL Netowrk but I'll be switching back and forth. I'm probably one of the few that really really misses Irvin.

Yeah I'll agree there, but they're definately moving in that direction. Just you wait, one day McShay is going to go after Kipers hair and Kiper will ask McShay "how long till you graduate from high school" (age joke)

Technically that wouldn't really matter, but these are the two guys you'll be seeing the most on draft day.
