There's one pretty big difference between Clayton/Salisbury and Kiper/McShay

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?

Mayock is very good. I don't really remember his playing days though (Packers)

So lets look at the match ups:

Color Commentator:
Berman vs Eisen
Advantage: Eisen

Give me neither

Main Draft Scout:
Kiper vs Mayock
Advantage: Mayock

Push

Second Opinion Draft Analyst:
McShay vs Some guy from Boston College
Advantage: McShay

What about 3rd, 4th, and 5th opinion?

In House GM's:
Floyd Reese vs Charlie Casserly
Advantage: Reese

That's cool

NFL Players:
K. Johnson/E. Smith vs Faulk/Woodson
Advantage: Faulk/Woodson

Love Keyshawn, but Emmitt...sigh

In Studio NFL Players
Schlereth/Jackson vs Sanders/Dukes/Dilfer
Advantage: Schclereth/Jackson

Agreed

Former Coach:
Ditka vs Mooch/Billick
Advantage: Ditka

Word

Insiders
Palantonio/Mort vs Schefter
Advantage: Schefter

Did you forget Clayton?

Unintentional Comedy:
Advantage: Emmitt[?QUOTE]

Intentional Comedy: SmootSmack!

Graphics (Best Available/Past Picks/ Upcoming Picks)
Advantage: ESPN

Can be a bit busy at times

In Studio Analyst:
Hodge/Wingo/Jaws vs Charles/Burmeister/Baldinger
Advantage: NFL Network (Jaws isn't enough to pick up the slack created by Hodge and Wingo)

Trey is really cool though

Sexy Anchors:
Kobler/Nichols vs Random Blonde Chicks
Advantage: ESPN

Kolber is really funny. I went to junior high with Nichols, had a bit of a crush on her. But Alex Flanagan is not bad. Not bad at all

Draft Weekend Coverage
Advantage: NFL Network

Negative rep points coming your way

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.

Theres no push in Network vs ESPN, this is a fight to the death.

I might be bored but I'm not that bored.

Yes I did, but Clayton still isn't enough to swing the vote towards ESPN.

I didn't write that part in the middle. Don't make me use my 6 reputation point power.
