I know nothing about college football, but the Chiefs fans on Reddit seem to like our pick. Seems like he would have been a higher pick if not for injury concerns, but we can let him sit (maybe even the entire year) if needed.
He's projected as a really good LT. Probably won't play much this season, but that's a good thing. He's pretty good against speed rushers but has struggled at times against power rushers. Chiefs and Eagles keep being the rich getting richer. Having Mahomes protected to have more time is scary.

i was expecting and hoping for jalon walker once the jets passed on him, but i'm not mad about tet. it's honestly hard to get excited about anything panthers-related because our owner is a jackass and the ceiling for bryce young is somewhere around pro bowl alternate. but the panthers picking a big-bodied receiver in the first round always turns out great. just look at kelvin benjamin!

...oh no

Tet actually has a lot of the same concerns Benjamin did too. But his ceiling is much higher!

in retrospect the funniest thing about the trajectory of KB's career is that he had a 1,000-yard rookie season and then tore a ligament in training camp the very next year and missed the entire season. the very next year was, of course, the 15-1 season lmao

Jon absolutely feasting on the fact that double posting is no longer an issue in new game winners 😛

I am very happy with the Giants did, I like Dart I know he's got some work to do but he gets to sit for at least a year, and we really gave up next year's third round and this year's supplemental third round which is basically almost the fourth round, so very little

Only I don't care about my post count like I did back then.

I also waited for the picks, so I would have avoided the OG timers too! :link

The amount of time for teams to pick is too long. They should have 5 minutes, and another team can have the option of extending someone’s time if they want to discuss a trade at that time

MOST of the picks were in within 3-5 minutes. It’s the broadcast. They need to make it a 3 hour event too. Unnecessarily I might add.

Only a couple teams were over 5 minutes and took the timer all the way down.

There were a couple teams done in 2 minutes and rather than announce it they had the announcers talk for 5 minutes (mostly Kiper bitching how incredulous he was that Sanders was still on the board and how it was like Rodgers slipping to 22 all over again), then they cut to 5 minutes of commercials before coming back announcing the pick.

It’s stupid but NFL gotta money somehow. They are a poverty organization after all!
