rush LB time. should be a fun rd. talks are that oakland are trading up to #33 w/ pats presumably for kaepernick. good news for us if it happens as NE could very well take a OLB @ #33

Did anyone else think the draft was boring and uninspired this year. I hate the thursday night draft change. And whats up with finding out the pick before the commish gets to the podium to announce it? Zooming in on what college player is on the phone. Are we as a society getting so spoiled with instant information that we have to ruin everything.

No I love the 3 day draft. I do hate them showing the pick before its called out. Takes out all the suspense.

I bet the Patriots pick Akeem Ayers with #33. They need a solid OLB.

Don't know if I've ever said it before or not, but I sure am glad we beat Jacksonville in Week 16 and that we aren't picking 5 spots earlier in every round. /end sarcasm

I would never, ever tell my team to lose a game. Not even to improve draft position. That's how a coach loses the respect of his players.

But... that's just me.

I completely agree and don't support the idea, but if I wanted to lose I wouldn't tell my players to lose, I'd just sit Schaub, Foster, Leach, Cushing, etc.

Pats take Ras-I Dowling

Losing on purpose = Madden strategy...

If I want the Texans to lose, then I'm most likely a Dallas fan
