Gonna get a breakfast burrito and wash it down with a six pack of Dos Equis, manly breakfast.

Like a boss, eh?

 

[RellyRell28]

Also Kas what are your thoughts on the early game in London? You're on the west coast right so you have to get up really early to watch that game

 

[Futurevoid]

@JeffDarlington: thought @NFL Draft was already a big event? Roger Goodell told me league will consider stretching it to 4 days

UGH.

Playoff expansion is on the docket for the next meeting, too.

 

[Talon]

UGH.

Playoff expansion is on the docket for the next meeting, too.

Somehow I miss Tags.

 

[MechDX]

UGH.

Playoff expansion is on the docket for the next meeting, too.

Yes yes yes!!! Spread it out more!! More time to over analyze!!

 

[ActStriker]

UGH.

Playoff expansion is on the docket for the next meeting, too.

Why am I not surprised

 

[Himynameischris]

UGH.

Playoff expansion is on the docket for the next meeting, too.

Just make it a pick per day until kickoff,

 

[Drakeon]

I want to know Kas's secret. Where's he get all that optimism? He has no right to be as up on the Lions as he is year in and year out, but somehow he manages it. How do you do it Kas?

 

[Grover Cleveland]

UGH.

Playoff expansion is on the docket for the next meeting, too.

Goodell's America

Soon we're going to have games that last a week. Play a quarter a day.

(And I bet each quarter will still have the best ratings on TV)

 

[Greg]

Just make it a pick per day until kickoff,

and put a combine in between each pick

 

[BigAT]

Can't wait until they release the schedule one week at a time over 17 days.

Maybe NFLN can do a two-hour daily morning show on the consistency of Goodell's shit.

 

[JABEE]

I agree with the NFL executive someone quoted on Twitter. Why the Hell isn't the draft this weekend? Gooddell trying to make the draft into a four day event would suck. I want my Saturday morning draft back!

 

[Greg]

Can't wait until they release the schedule one week at a time over 17 days.

that gives ESPN time for mock schedules

 

[squicken]

You know it kind of would be awesome if like just the top 10 was the first night. Who wouldn't watch? I'd say most fans just watch the first round, but when it is 4 hours long, it's hard to get all the bandwagon Seahawks/Pats fans to stay up that late and watch

It's adorable that you think the top 10 wouldn't be a four hour show anyway.

They'd just have shitty band performances in between picks and endless analysis of the picks to fill in the remaining time.

I think it'd be two hours or so. And wouldn't it be awesome having Drake perform Draft Day when the Texans made their pick?

David Carr on time with #Texans: "If you're going to spend the money on a franchise quarterback, you've got to keep him on his feet."

Carr added: "You have to have a coordinator that knows what he's doing," referring to what it takes for first-round QBs to succeed in #NFL.

Average fans watch when they are good, ignore when they stink. Casuals, you might call them. True fans watch through the good, and the bad. Real fans. Die hard fans watch through thick amd thin, and listen in through the entire off season. But the real cream of the crop, are the Delusional fans. It takes a special breed to reach this level. Watch all the games, critique each quarter down to the play. And every mistake, every loss, every failed season, has its own special excuse. Every year is a SB contendership year. Every year it doesnt happen, its next year. No matter how good or how bad a team is, they are always destined for greatness year round in the mind of a delusional fan.

I honeslty admire Kas for his commitment. Watching his team implode like that last year when they had the division on lockdown must have hurt. But he held his head high, and like a true delusional fan, told us all 'Next year, Just you see! We'll get it done this time! Trust me!'. That level of commitment is rare in NFLGaf, and we should all think him for being the resident lunatic.

He is right but he was also a skittish fuck and turtles when he even remotely felt pressured

 

[squicken]

He is right but he was also a skittish fuck and turtles when he even remotely felt pressured

Agree, but early on I though he was fine as far as hanging in the pocket. His biggest flaw was he could not throw a seam route. Just lacked the fundamental accuracy to make those arc throws over LBs but in front of safeties

We all must never forget that Peyton Manning essentially called Chris Palmer an idiot, and that was the guy who "shepherded" Carr and Couch's careers

 

[The Artful Dodger]

I think it'd be two hours or so. And wouldn't it be awesome having Drake perform Draft Day when the Texans made their pick?

I wonder how many times Drake would change his favorite team if he performed during the NFL draft.

Talked to one of David Carr’s teammates on the #Texans and the comment was "Last one in, first one out.”..twitter


I swear you just like to argue. Carr was shit, plain and simple. I can't believe you are even remotely defending him

 

[effzee]

I wonder how many times Drake would change his favorite team if he performed during the NFL draft.

Why can't we have Drake perform a custom song for each team based on each pick?

He would def sing some soft sad r&b song for the Browns.

 

[AngmarsKing701]

UGH.

Playoff expansion is on the docket for the next meeting, too.

Let's play 20 games per season that essentially matter only in seeding, then have every team setup in a 32 team bracket.

Goodell Future.

 

[squicken]

I swear you just like to argue. Carr was shit, plain and simple. I can't believe you are even remotely defending him

Can we not have different opinions? The way I heard it was that early on he was committed. In early, trying to be a leader. But that the hits wore on him and he gave up and just cashed his check. That was from Richard Justice years ago when he still worked for the Chronicle and had a radio show

I've got to the Dolphins in my mock draft on the NFL site and now it's getting much harder to place players.

Still got JFF and Bridgeovertroubledwater to place too.

I say red, you say blue

If Urbz could keep Hernandez out of jail I am sure he can easily clean up Roby's DUI

Seen Winter Soldier yet?

No. Generally just catch them on Blu Ray or On Demand

Got the pick ready bro! We shy should probably talk about what to do w/ 13. I'll definitely be working then

I refuse to take a safety that early. Clinton-Dix is not as good as all these draftniks have him. Just doesn't have great instincts

Welcome to the 2014 NFL-GAF MOCK DRAFT!

RULES:

Proposed Rules/Guidelines:

- The purpose of the mock draft is to try and best simulate what will happen on draft day. Those choosing for their respective teams should be looking to choose a player that they think their team will choose. This is not about who YOU want, its about what you think your team will do on draft day.

- No trades. Up or down. Too complicated and it will slow things down.

- Your group has four hours to make their selection from the time your team is announced to be on the clock. The only exception is if your teams clock starts overnight of course. At which point the clock starts running at 10AM EST the next day.

- If there is no selection made in that four hour time period 1 of two things could happen:
1. I make the selection for you.
2. The selection can be opened up to NFL-GAF in general and the consensus pick wins. The person with the best write-up for the consensus pick gets it added to the mock draft.

- Along with the regular team/group selections, I was thinking maybe the general NFL-GAF population can do the consensus pick anyways. Maybe have a secondary mock draft happening during that 4 hour time period between actual team/group selections

List of those drafting:

Texans - MechDX
Raiders - Mackenzie 92
Cardinals - Squall ASF
Rams - Squicken, B For Bendetta
Ravens - BaltimoreLarry, Nakazato, Bolt Vanderhuge
Dolphins - chris.trejo, The_Darkest_Red
Bucs - Syrinx, Hammer24
Jaguars - Tamanon
Giants - BigAT, Futurevoid, Draxal, Striker
Browns - BlackGhost, Wes, TheBatman
Patriots - Colasante, ActStriker, Sanjuro, Dutch Patriot
Eagles - gutshot, yankeehater, jabee
Cowboys - Farooq, cashman
Vikings - Slo, BannedEpisode
Steelers - DeaconKnowledge, AngmarsKing701
Jets - Fox318
Seahawks - cdyhybrid
Bills - LJ11
Packers - Buckethead, Greg
Panthers - Grover Cleveland
Bears - minx88
Saints - cajunator
Falcons - Talon
Lions - Plinko
Niners - Doomsayer, bigosc2k
Chiefs - Tragicomedy

Drafting in spirit only:
Redskins - Ninja Scooter
Colts - Narag

Have to put my ramblings into proper words.

Take JFF mech!

 

[rando14]

Take Bortles mech!!

 

[squicken]

I defer to Brother Mech, who is wise in all things

 

[Grover Cleveland]

Time for Mech's first test as the self-proclaimed leader of Pats-South

Does he do the convenient thing or the right thing?
