They've spent their lives up to this point working towards that moment when their name is announced and they walk out onto that stage and Goodell hands them that jersey. Now they're getting Zoom or Skype time Expand Good to not be man handled by Goodell. They need to consult with laywers and find out if they sign contract and season is cancelled what happens? Do I get all that money for doing nothing as NFLPA likes or does it kick it down a year.

Expand Have you seen the history of the draft gurus? There are more busts by experts than there are in draft!

GreggTX Posted April 8, 2020 Posted April 8, 2020 I'll be waiting for that UH-OH moment when someone walks by wearing a bath towel or a cat decides to steal the show. Could be fun.

It'll be scripted as a dry run, and TE Hingle McCringleberry will get drafted 1st overall again. Like seriously, it blows my mind how you think an NFL GM would be so daft as to actually go "Durr well we would trade from this pick but if we had to choose someone here it would be QB Justin Herbert herpa derp..."

Call_Of_Ktulu Posted April 8, 2020 Posted April 8, 2020 They have testing kits, just have 20 people test for it and if you don’t have it your can enter the war room at the facility. I have a bad feeling the Patriots are going to hack into our draft server and pick us Alohi Gilman with our 2nd rd pick.

YoloinOhio Posted April 11, 2020 Author Posted April 11, 2020 (edited) Kyle Brandt is hysterical and this is so true. I wonder how many GMs are scrambling to set up a “stately looking” background in time for the draft. Edited April 11, 2020 by YoloinOhio 1 5
