    Watching NFL Network and reading some things, I keep seeing some interesting stuff, especially about the QB's.

    1. Raiders like Kaepernick as their guy. SF Chronicle reporting that the Raiders might trade up in late round 1 to get him.

    2. Bengals want to trade down and get Andy Dalton.

    3. LaCanfora said Dalton could be the 2nd QB off the board, and some teams prefer him over Gabbert.

    Just some stuff floating around:

    Von Miller will likely be Denver's pick at #2.

    Buffalo is definitely considering Blaine Gabbert with #3.

    Deadskins want to trade up, but most likely won't.

    I have an essay due tomorrow morning, so my goal is to finish by 7, and be drunk by 8.

    Im not sure if I just studied this draft more than last season but this seems like one of the more exciting drafts in awhile and the Jets pick at 30 not something earlier..

    Holy shit, I'd love it if the Jets could take advantage of crazy Al's senility, trade out of 30 and pick up eleventy billion picks.

    Trading back into the first and getting a player like Colin Kaepernick at 30 shouldn't be considered senile.

    I think taking Kaepernick would be a hell of a move for Oakland.

    i think he means that we could take advantage of mr senile getting an insane deal out of it, not the trade per se.

    No, Kaepernick is fine at 30, but maybe Al could give us too much for it.

    Did it start at 8PM last year too or was it 7PM?

    I'm almost positive it was 8PM last year because I seem to remember ESPN running commercials about how the draft was going to be in prime time.

    How much will Carolina have to pay Cam Newton's dad when they draft him tonight?

    Can't wait, the hours are just crawling by!

    My prediction:7 first round trades with two including top 10 picks.

    Forgive me, but I don't understand the though process behind the pick.

    Where are they gonna play him?

    I think he'll be an outside linebacker. Supposedly, John Fox sees him as an every-down LB.

    I guess so, I had a similar thought a few months ago, but was shot down pretty fast.

    It just pains me to see players perfect for a 3-4, Miller and Dumervil wasting away in a 4-3...
