Ha ha, thanks. I was hoping I wasn't the only one that felt that way about the networks.

I mean for anyone else watching you'd see stuff like ESPN not knowing who was picked until maybe seconds before. Other times they got guys they were lucky enough to have cameras on at home. Look, when JLC breaks picks before Schefter you know somethings wrong. Other times they would just keep on talking while players were getting picked, and this was in the first round.

Another thing I liked about NFLN though was they always had some noise in the background. ESPN kept cutting to interviews and studios where it's dead silent and their mic's didn't really pick up much background noise. I doubt thats a factor for 99.9% of people watching the draft but I thought it added a sense of being there. It also helped NFLN because the few times they did talk over picks early you could hear it announced in the background.

I've had my TV on for the entire draft and I think that I've spent maybe 20 minutes on ESPN. The other infinity billion hours have been on NFLN. And keep in mind I felt like at the start of the draft that I was going to spend most of my time on ESPN.

Forget it. After that Rolle buzzkill I can't even talk to you anymore. You know what....You're an in the box safety. Yeah I showed you.

That's pretty funny considering I played SS in high school.

Why haven't these two threads been merged yet?

theres still some good 3-4 OLB's out there.

Bruce Campbell, OT Maryland is still available as of pick 95. Pretty good RT prospect for us? Does he make it to 103?

I'd love that one.

Colt McCoy talking about being excited to go to Cleveland reminds me of Ichiro's Cleveland quote:

"To tell the truth, I'm not excited to go to Cleveland, but we have to. If I ever saw myself saying I'm excited going to Cleveland, I'd punch myself in the face, because I'm lying."

I'm betting Campbell does and it'll be a steal for us. He'll be motivated to prove all those teams wrong that thay passed on him.

Is Campbell projected as a RT?

He played LT at MD, but from what I hear he'll be a better RT than LT in the pros.

At this point i think he falls to us. Unfortunately i think we don't take him for whatever reason. If we did, we become one G away from a formidable offensive line.

I thought about that to, until I realized MS took Maurice Clarett in the 3rd, so he's not afraid to pick suspect guys, and it might satisfy Synder need for a high profile pick.

Uh, does Campbell have character issues?
I haven't heard that yet...any info?

[tootergray34]

He can play guard, RT...Campbell may be a little too slow to be a starter after 1 preseason, but come on...it is a 4th round pick...when do you get a starter out of a 4th?

[Dirtbag59]

Look out for Myron Rolle. Redskins are looking for another Center Fielder. Personally I wouldn't be surprised if they passed on a tackle and drafted either a LB, RB, or FS. I mean I know Vinny isn't here any more but I don't think they feel the solution is to simply draft a bunch of lineman.
