QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ May 9, 2014 -> 08:55 AM) Any chance Nix will be there for the Bears in Round 2? I think so. There is still some really good DL left. With the run on defensive back last night, a lot of other positions kind of went untouched. Lot of good TE left.

I love that the Packers got HaHa Clinton-Dix. I didn't think there was any way he would fall to the Packers.

I like Fuller. Some talk that he could play safety, but I don't see it. I don't think he has the size for it.

I really doesn't bother me that he is a homer. He calls games for the White Sox. It's not like he is calling games at the national level. He's goes a bit over sometimes, but that stuff can be funny too.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ May 8, 2014 -> 01:32 PM) OK, I decided to answer my own question. I used the point chart from NBC Sports. Bears 14th pick = 1100 points Jets 18th pick = 900 points Jets 80th pick (Rd 3) = 190 points Jets 209th pick (Rd 6 compensatory) = 7.8 points, total of 1097.8 points I guess if you go "by the book" that would be the deal. That seems about right.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ May 8, 2014 -> 11:13 AM) Jeez. All this hype and wait time and only 32 picks tonight. The NFL is a monster. Just wait. "Tonight, picks 17-24. Join us tomorrow for picks 25-32." "Day 14 of draft month!"

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ May 8, 2014 -> 09:20 AM) Good call here. I'd love to drop back a few spots and pick up an extra 3rd rounder. Fuller is a good name though. I have a feeling the Bears might move back. I know they need a safety and that is mocked to them alot, but I'm not sure teams are that high on Clinton-Dix and Pryor. Honestly, I like Bucannon better than both of those guys.

I'd say the Bears take Aaron Donald, but I think he is long gone by the time the Bears draft. So I will go with Kyle Fuller out of Virgina Tech. It also wouldn't shock me if the Bears traded back.

Was there any reason for the drop off in velocity on his fastball?

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ May 7, 2014 -> 10:40 PM) Alright, by around this time tomorrow we should know the Bears first pick. Who do you have? I have my money on Clinton-Dix Kirby van der Kemp - Iowa State - Punter.

I don't mind that they don't talk about it because I think it would be boring to listen to during a game, but Hawk is just against it and yells about it all the time.

QUOTE (bmags @ May 7, 2014 -> 11:51 AM) Seems like sentiment is that the extra time before draft has led to a lot of guys being further ripped apart. I forget where I read it, but a former GM said they should move the draft up to March. That there is too much time and people are over thinking things and starting to base too much on pro days. I read yesterday that an NFL scout said Teddy Bridgewater has 4th round talent. That is the point where I stopped reading anything else.

Bernstein was talking about this during his show yesterday.

I'm glad the draft is tomorrow. I can't take anymore. This is the time before the draft where every player is the worst ever and going to be the best ever.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ May 6, 2014 -> 11:57 AM) Just because I'm in love with this picture, this is some of the alternative outfield excellence That slide was just really awful. His face must hurt.

There was like 5 players who failed a drug test at the combine. How could you be that dumb. Some big names. Timmy Jernigan Zach Mettenberger Christian Jones Telvin Smith Anthony Johnson

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 5, 2014 -> 03:16 PM) Hawks up 2-0 in series. Do you think the competition is weak this year and Hawks are guaranteed a spot in the Stanley Cup Finals? What you think? I was quite glad we got Minnesota in Round Two. Figured we'd beat them. Up 2-0 things looking pretty nice. Nothing is guaranteed. If they get past the Wild things will get much tougher.

QUOTE (farmteam @ May 5, 2014 -> 02:00 PM) ?!?!?! How were you able to accomplish this? It's an impossible ticket. I was just went on at 10am and grabbed them. I didn't think I would get any.

The first round of this draft is going to be awesome. I have no idea who is taking who. Almost every pick will be a surprise.

I would like to see the draft move around. I don't like making it 4 days. I like that most of the draft is over by Saturday, I don't want to spend the whole weekend watching the draft. I wouldn't mind if they did it like Monday - Thursday.

No one will take a RB in the first round this year. I wouldn't be surprised if only one goes in the second round.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ May 5, 2014 -> 12:06 PM) Hub Arkush was just on the score, and said he wants no part of Aaron Donald because he is too small. Then he said he hopes the Bears take Carlos Hyde. I just dont even.... Donald is small for a DT. I'm sure that is a legit concern for some teams. Did he mean they should take Hyde in the first round? If he was talking like 2nd or 3rd, I could see that, but 1st round would be beyond crazy.

I was some how able to get tickets for The Replacements, Lucero and Hold Steady for the show up in St. Paul. Should be a great show.

Yeah, if you want to trade up into the first round, you better really like the player you are getting. Probably a QB.

Sharks scored 17 goals in the first three games. 5 goals in the last four. Glad I'm not a Sharks fan. That must be depressing.
