Blank Stare Posted April 23, 2020 Posted April 23, 2020 Thanks! Was wondering why he wasn’t out making the rounds like Kiper.
dubs Posted April 23, 2020 Posted April 23, 2020 Team Kiper for life! Just kidding though, hopefully Todd and anyone else with Covid has a speedy recovery. 6
aristocrat Posted April 23, 2020 Posted April 23, 2020 damn it's like the one thing he does. terrible timing and hope he beats it 4

They could probably cut to him once every 5 picks for 2 minutes on his thoughts. They don’t need to abuse him but... 1
Buddo Posted April 23, 2020 Posted April 23, 2020 Hope he recovers well. Can't say I'll miss him, as I think he's rubbish. Neither particularly well informed, or an especially astute evaluator. I think Kiper is a better evaluator, by far, but Mayock was even more so. Mayock also was able to give you who the next team might pick, and was regularly correct. 2
Mountain Man Posted April 23, 2020 Posted April 23, 2020 I wondered if something was up, he hasn't done the last 2 episodes of the First Draft podcast with Kiper and they basically avoided the topic of why he wasn't on

GunnerBill Posted April 23, 2020 Posted April 23, 2020 1 minute ago, Mr. WEO said: nah Well, yea.... but because he was getting tipped the picks. The number of times it would be like Mayock: "Seattle they have a need at tackle there are two tackles near the top of my board I think one of them would make sense. They need a tackle" Eisen: "Well here comes the commissioner..." Mayock: "I think the corner Joe Bloggs makes sense here too" Goodell: "And with the 22nd pick, Seattle selects, Joe Bloggs, Corner"
1st Ammendment NoMas Posted April 23, 2020 Posted April 23, 2020 Let's just go back to saying Wuhan Virus. It's more accurate. 2 2 1

Timing sucks for him, though--even though it's a first world problem in the grand scheme of things... 1

JoeF Posted April 23, 2020 Posted April 23, 2020 (edited) Still one of my favorite Caliendo bits ---- TODD, TODD, TODD, TODD......Get well soon, Todd! Edited April 23, 2020 by JoeF 1 1

That's No Moon Posted April 23, 2020 Posted April 23, 2020 4 minutes ago, Mr. WEO said: by agents? by the league. They hand in the card, they tip the pick to the NFLN broadcast, they talk into Mayock's ear. It's not that hard. How many times do they obviously wait to announce the pick until the broadcast is done talking and ready for them to? Answer, all the time. The other thing is they obviously pick out teams they are going to hammer every year no matter what they do. They can talk both ways about any player depending on who takes them. It's not a factual broadcast. It's a made for TV event and they interject intrigue and drama to increase viewer interest.
buffaloboyinATL Posted April 23, 2020 Posted April 23, 2020 Damn, he spends all year prepare for these few days. That totally sucks for him.
Mr. WEO Posted April 23, 2020 Posted April 23, 2020 Just now, That's No Moon said: by the league. They hand in the card, they tip the pick to the NFLN broadcast, they talk into Mayock's ear.

It's not a factual broadcast. It's a made for TV event and they interject intrigue and drama to increase viewer interest. Oh so you mean his pick from his final mock changed in real time live during the draft immediately before the picks were announced because the NFL was shouting in his earpiece?
