The NFL Thread - Root for your favorite team (or laugh at the Browns, whichever's easier)

Mel Kiper has been coping and sneeding over Sanders falling below Dart for like a half hour now

 

[Squanto Airi]

Bills pick Maxwell Hairston

Eagles pick Jihaad Campbell
Chiefs pick Josh Simmons

I heard Sanders failed every interview with all the teams before the draft.

Huh, thought for sure the Steelers were gonna bite on Sanders, go for full Days of Our Steelers. Guess they're still waiting on Rodgers?

My belief is that Steelers and Rodgers already have a handshake deal in place. The Steelers are letting Rodgers do his spiritual bullshit during the offseason so it doesn't look bad when he's signed to the team but not participating in the OTAs and stuff like that. He'll be there for training camp.

That seems too clever for Art II, I think he may be fully deluded enough to let Tomlin ride with Mason Rudolph acting as a bridge for a day 2 QB. I think after the Killer Bs the Steelers as an org are eager to avoid media controversy or drama, which Rodgers will attract no matter what, because his hatedom is obsessive and honestly more annoying than he is at this point.

EDIT: Shadeur falling out of the first round is made all the funnier when you remember that CU retired his number last week

You know Deion forced that one on them. At least Travis Hunter won the Heisman, it made sense to retire his number.

The amount of relief from Tree And Five when neither of their teams drafted Sanders was exhilarating. How do you fuck up interviews that badly?

Did you see his draft setup? With a couch emblazoned with a "LEGACY" hashtag? Take the mind behind that, and imagine him in an interview. Dude's had every accolade besides stuff that solely measures on the field performance thrown at him and probably has the ego to match.
Take that, put it in the package of a player who probably has his most favorable professional comp as Alex Smith, as his ceiling, and attach a boatload of guaranteed media attention and a father who is a) a HOF player himself, b) a legendary diva in his own right, and c) his college coach, and it's really no surprise the entire league passed on him, at least in the first round.
But I bet you the Browns GM is currently trying to sell Stefanski on the idea that falling out of the first is totally enough to check that ego, so they should draft him first thing tomorrow, and Haslam's probably already on board because it'll get butts in seats and distract from Watson finally being taken out behind the shed.

Holy shit Sanders fell out the first round my coworker owes me lunch.

 

[Americunt]

The fact the Giants traded up for a QB that they could have waited for day 2 to trade up
for when they signed Russ and Jameis is comedic enough, the fact they did it and DIDN'T pick Sheduer is pure comedy. paging @StarkRavingMad

You know it'd bad when CLEVELAND is confident they can get you in the 2nd round.

My friend who's a big Giants fan is in total cope mode over the Jaxson Dart pick lol.

 

[Nogg]

I hope if the Browns draft Sheduer, Deion comes out and says he won't let him play in Cleveland so they better trade him or he'll sit out and enter the draft next year.

Well at least it's still not as bad as the Daniel Jones trade up.

I will LMFAO if he isn't picked today.

 

[David Floyd George]

Same here. In fact, I hope he doesn't get drafted at all - the seething and cope would be magnificent.

 

[Mister Ferro]

Mr. Pull Yo Fire Alarm rants how Deion's kid hasn't been drafted!!!

 

[Wallace]

Better for Sanders to get his reality check now, instead of on the field getting his shit pushed in from behind a shitty offensive line. Although that would be really funny.
