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 player threads for each of our picks as they are made, with videos and notable stats/takes in the OP. These separate threads will be made as soon as the news breaks, outside of this thread. I will link the threads below. Pure knee-jerk gold to reference in the future.

I know. Heard the Giants, Vikings, and Broncos are all incredibly interested if Maye drops to 3 though. [Reply]

If you're the Vikings, you know they aren't giving a division rival a potential franchise QB, especially not the one that Harbaugh loves.
I think the Vikings might be able to get it for just their 2 1st rounders.
I think they could game the Giants into giving up some pretty valuable draft capital if they feel there's a significant dropoff between JJ McCarthey and Nix/Penix. That would still leave them in prime position to get whoever they desired. [Reply]
