Rules:
1. No spoiled picks in this thread, all weekend. This means that as tweets are leaking picks a few minutes before the selection is announced live, you don't post it in this thread (ex: embedded tweets), reference it in this thread (ex: Joe Slapdick says it's McCaffrey to Tampa) or hint at it (ex: "it's a RB!").
Don't be a dick.
Otherwise, have fun, talk shit, freak out and lose your goddamned minds. It's Draft Weekend. The hot takes in these threads are so funny.
I'll also be starting threads for each of our picks as they are made, with videos and notable stats/takes in the OP. Pure knee jerk gold to reference in the future. [Reply]

Which is a big problem. Linebackers make up a large portion of the defense and most of the ones on the roster sucked last year and couldn't stop the run or rush the passer worth a damn. Dorsey continually ignoring linebacker is hurting the defense. We've been put into a situation where we really have no choice but to pick up Ford's option year because Hali needs to be off the team as soon as is possible and Houston isn't even a sure thing. Inside linebacker is a mess and full of nobodies. I hope we don't have too many needs next year because we're not going to be able to address a whole lot of needs in the draft without a 1st round pick. [Reply]

We weren't close to the Super Bowl at all. Even if we had managed to get past Pittsburgh, new England would have donkey punched us [Reply]

These are the same ****ing people that look at KC vs PIT or KC vs NE and immediately go with the much better QB 99% of the time and give Smith as the reasoning. [Reply]
If Florida coaches (fucking Florida) are saying stay the fuck away, no matter what....that's bad.
Can someone please translate this sports writer's (a.k.a bottom feeders of the journalism pyramid) message that she is trying to contextualize, and convey to the public on Twitter?
