What do you mean?

This is ESPN's biggest event of the year by far.

Great pick for the Pack. Especially with the types offences they have to deal with in that division.

I dont like that he had 30 people in the room with him. Hopefully he can handle all the "hand-out" requests.

About 3 or 4 picks the Niners would be happy with.

Big decision here. If they can do it, I could see them trading down 4 or 5 spots. One of the guys they would want will still be there.

It is. ESPN bought it. NFL still owns the rights and can broadcast it as well.

Remember, something like 70% of the US doesn't get the NFL network. Poor bass-turds!

Crabtree's numbers are astounding. 2 years as an 18 and 19 year old, crazy good numbers.

Orakpo or Cushing to the Bills.

Unreal the players that the Broncos have to choose from at 12. So pleased they didn't trade up.

Crabtree played at Dallas Carter for Highschool.

That was that cheap mother school in Friday Night Lights

I wouldnt feel that sorry for them, ESPN (TSN) is way better for coverage today than NFL Network.

I can't believe the Chiefs took Jackson with the #3 pick. I thought they'd go with Curry for sure.

That seems like a perfect Patriots player - not that he will drop that far though.
