Laughed when that Jets fan kid said "I barely know who that guy is".

That's what is amazing to me. The NFL makes money, big money, out of casual fans.

Witness the Texans' announcement with their robotic entourage cheering on cue when they announce picking a player most of them have never heard of.

Still crazy Billings hasn't been picked. I'm sure Dallas won't go 3 D-lineman in a row but Billings is this years Ajayi basically.

Any feelings on Brandon Allen at this point? I know some on here like him.

He's smart. Really put it together late in his Senior season. Not the strongest arm, but he's pretty accurate. I wouldn't hate it if we picked him up at the end of the fourth. I'd love it if we got him in the sixth. I am biased but after watching then both in the SEC, Allen is going to have a better career than Prescott. I think his floor is decent backup

If the #Cowboys didn't take #NotreDame LB Jaylon Smith in the 2nd round, the #Patriots would have. Explains why they dealt 1 2nd rounder

Fuck. I know we weren't going to take him, but it still sucks to see him go.

Isn't that sort of what we have at backup QB now?

This is the point where the draft telecasts come off the rails.

The picks are too fast and these announcers struggle.

And these gay guest announcers don't help things.

He isn't weak armed. Just don't expect him to hit a guy in stride 60 yards downfield very often. He's strong on his short and intermediate throws. I think his best trait is that he got better every season, and was still improving at the end of the year. Unlike Moore I don't think he's realized all his potential yet.
