I thought Palmer might go earlier with the 40 time he posted

I also don't love that they put it in prime time on Thursday. I love the shorter clock. And granted with all of my kids activities, it's not like I can dedicate a random Saturday in April to watching the draft, but before they moved it, Saturday of the draft was a major day drinking day

Back in the day I was in a group of guys who all rooted for different teams, we would go to a local establishment and make a day of the opening day of the draft. It was great fun.  Couldn't do it on a Thursday because of work.  TV makes the rules, the local fans and fans that go to the games are completely secondary to the NFL.

I kinda get a kick out of how major this event has become over time.  I can see going to a bar to watch with some dudes for fun easily enough.  My low interest in the NFL though precludes my attention to any of this, I might gander at the first round in the news the next day.  Maybe.

[OrangeAfroMan]

Yeah, the draft is fun for me, as it's a virtual graduation for the players getting my attention.  I don't care who drafts them, I don't care how they fit in with their new team, I'm just interested in the tools vs production thing.

The nation's leader in sacks, from a helmet program, is mocking in the 150s, while all the pundits are jerking off over an edge guy from Texas Tech in the top 10.  
It's interesting and fun.  

[FearlessF]

it's better than watching the news or the NBA playoffs

[Mdot21]

Washington Redskins decline the 5th year option on former OSU star and top NFL draft pick DE Chase Young. That's two promising careers they've ruined in just the last 10 years or so. Thought RGIII would be a perennial All-Pro QB after his rookie year. Thought the same thing about Young at DE. Guess not.

Gotta recruit Florida.

[Mdot21]

Gotta recruit Florida.

yup. best talent pool for football players in the entire US and it's not close. don't really know why that is, Cali and Texas both have far more people.

[Cincydawg]

Florida 22.4 M
Texas  30.3 M
Cali     40.2 M
Ohio    11.9 M
Georgia 11.0 M
Loiuisiana 4.7 M
NC 10.7 M

Those are the states with more than 90 drafted.
