Gata is confused.
He thinks he's an alligator.
His tag says he's a pony.
And his picture says he's a capybara.

Typical. Wait until I'm done with Madden before you get EA Access. JJ wouldn't approve of that cowardly approach.
Get NHL. I suck at hockey

I'll probably pick up EA Access in six months or so, we can play NHL then.

Shit, you can see the damn tornado on the radar. Hope it breaks up soon, the only thing more dangerous than tornadoes at day are tornadoes at night... and it's going to end up crossing I94 at the IL/WI border...
It doesn't matter who the Vikings take they'll still finish 6-10.
With that said they'll probably go DeVante Parker (WR, Louisville) because like said Teddy needs WRs to throw to.
DeVante Parker visited the Lions today:

Aside from JJ Watt's sparring session last season the teams the HK team faces are inconsequential at best.

Vikings will select T. Williams.
Also fuck the lions. Your ramblings have the feel of man who feels the walls closing in.

Since Future died, I'm moving this along because I think most of us said Devante Parker.
The 2015 NFL-GAF Mock Draft is now open for business.
1. Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Jameis Winston, QB, Florida State.
Yes, there are some maturity questions with Jameis Winston and he is (probably) a rapist shit. But the simple fact of the matter is that the Bucs are absolutely desperate for a franchise QB and Winston seems to be the guy Licht and Lovie like most. Winston has a solid arm and reportedly has a football IQ that is off the charts, and was very impressive at both the combine and FSU's pro day.
He has every chance to become a great QB in this league. But the Bucs are taking a risk here by going with a guy with his baggage. However, when you need a QB as badly as the Bucs do, that baggage seems a lot more manageable.
2. Tennessee Titans - Leonard Williams, DT, USC
The Titans are confident that their young offense with Mettenberger at the helm will continue to grow with another year in the system and so will pass on the consensus second-best QB in the draft and select the best defensive player in the draft in Williams. The Titans' defense desperately needs a shake up and Williams will be a disruptive force along the defensive line which should help to improve the rest of the unit.
3. Jacksonville Jaguars - Dante Fowler Jr, OLB/DE, Florida
I'm saying Dante Fowler for the Jags. A lot of hub-bub about that pick for them and they continue to need to address pass rush on their line. They've got their QB in Bortles. You could argue he needs weapons so a Cooper or White could go here but a premium pass rusher at #3 makes more sense for me.
4. Oakland Raiders - Amari Cooper, WR, Alabama
Outstanding work ethic with extremely polished route running skills for a college WR. Has the ability to make people miss after the catch. Has the ability to line up all over the field (Also been a knock on him because of Lame Kiffin's ability to get productively out of WRs). He had three years of productively in Alabama and should be able to step in and produce at a high level as a rookie.
5. Washington Redskins - Vic Beasley, OLB, Clemson
Mariotta to DC for the lulz (and so Gruden can help ruin another young QB) but the real pick should probably be Vic Beasley to give the Skins a potentially elite edge rusher to pair with Ryan Kerrigan and replace the departed Brian Orakpo. It's not a need pick but taking someone at a position of need (CB, WR) at this point would probably be a reach with the 5th pick.
6. New York Jets - Marcus Mariota, QB, Oregon
The Jets select Marcus Mariota. The Jets have had a productive off-season thus far, making moves to shore up weaknesses in the secondary by bringing back Revis and Cromartie and their receiver core with their pick-up of Brandon Marshall. Their one glaring weakness remains the QB position. Geno Smith has proven that he cannot reach a level of maintainable consistency, an issue Chan Gailey is unlikely to be able to rectify. Ryan Fitzpatrick, another off-season signing for the Jets, is not a long term solution but will hopefully be able to take reps while Mariota adjusts to life at the professional level. (Shadyspace)
7. Chicago Bears - Kevin White, WR, West Virginia
With the 7th pick in the 2015 NFL Draft the Bears select WR Kevin White. Bears make the right choice by drafting BPA and not for need by reaching for Shane Ray, Dupree or Shelton. However, once again the Bears miss out by one pick yet again after Aaron Donald was picked right before them last year. Bears would have loved Mariota to sit behind Jay Cutler until Bears fans call for his head (so only a few games). White has the ability and talent to be a true #1 WR with elite speed to compliment Jeffrey after the Bears created a need trading Marshall. Bears have met with most of the first round WRs as well so I see this as a realistic choice.(minx88)
8. Atlanta Falcons - Alvin "Bud" Dupree, DE Kentucky
As a Falcons fan our immediate need is a pass rusher. I don't know much about college players but from what I've been hearing and based on who's left, I would guess we would pick either Ray or Dupree whichever one is the better rusher.
9. New York Giants - 9. New York Giants - Danny Shelton, DT/NT Washington
Offensive line is a need and Brandon Sherff is who *I* want and the possibility of a tackle like La'El Collins or Andrus Peat were discussed but if Shelton is there at 9, I think Jerry Reese pounces. The Giants haven't had the ability to defend the run consistently since perhaps 2010. They hit big with Big Hank from Ohio who came on big time last year but next to him is an aging Cullen Jenkins, a second year player in Bromley who could develop and little else. They signed Kenrick Ellis to be a run stuffer but if you have the opportunity to bring in Shelton who has that high ceiling as both a run stuffer and possibly a pass rusher with development, you take it. Especially considering that Spags will constantly be rotating guys in and out of the line and showing different looks/stunts.
10. St. Louis Rams - Brandon Scherff, OT, Iowa
I haven't followed the draft at all this year, but I can say for the Rams, they will take that top OL if he is still available. After that, all else being equal, they would take a corner since Cooper and White are gone
11. Minnesota Vikings - DeVante Parker, WR, Louisville
Bridgewater needs weapons and Parker is a familiar face that he can work with to add some much needed offense to Minnesota that may be in danger of losing AP at some point.
12. Cleveland Browns - BlackGhost, TheBatman, Confrontation - ON THE CLOCK
13. New Orleans Saints -
14. Miami Dolphins - Darkest Red, HiMyNameIsChris, Bread
15. San Francisco 49ers - bigosc2k, Doomsayer
16. Houston Texans - MechDX
17. San Diego Chargers -
18. Kansas City Chiefs -
19. Cleveland Browns (from Buffalo) - BlackGhost, TheBatman, Confrontation
20. Philadelphia Eagles - Gutshot, JABEE, Yankeehater
21. Cincinnati Bengals -
22. Pittsburgh Steelers - DeaconKnowledge
23. Detroit Lions - NihonTiger90, Kas
24. Arizona Cardinals - Squall ASF
25. Carolina Panthers - Grover Cleveland
26. Baltimore Ravens - Blarry
27. Dallas Cowboys - Farooq, cashman
28. Denver Broncos - Godslay, MetalFearSolid
29. Indianapolis Colts - Spinluck
30. Green Bay Packers - Elfforkusu
31. New Orleans Saints (from Seattle) -
32. New England Patriots - Dutch, Gata, Case
Rules:
1. You and your group should come to a consensus on who you genuinely think your team would take. Not who you want.
2. No trades.
3. Each person/group has a 4 hour limit to make their pick. If the pick is not in within that 4 hour time limit, then the remaining NFL-GAF members will make a consensus pick. If no consensus is made, I will make the pick as the person running the draft.
4. Each pick should be accompanied with a short synopsis of why the pick was made. Don't write a book. Just tell me why.
5. Your pick can be PM'd to me directly and I will add it. That can be done before your on the clock. If you don't think you'll be here. You can send me your top three choices as your time draws near. You don't have to post it in the thread if you're going to be away.

My theory is that Future is unconscious from playing too many consecutive hours of Bloodborne.
