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.

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 know you meant Broncos or Raiders.)
I don't think there's any chance that pick is just going for their 2 1sts. That would be lambasted until the end of time and would be a fraction of what that sort of pick has warranted before. And these are 4 QBs that people seem very, very excited for.
I think they'd absolutely take the better trade to a team within their division OR just draft their BPA (Alt, Nabers, etc) than give up the pick for less than anyone would normally value it at. There might be teams willing to trade 2 1's just to get an Alt or Nabers, let alone a franchise QB. [Reply]

Yea that was a brain fart, obviously meant the Raiders.
I only looked at a few trade value charts, but it was actually plus value for the Chargers :-) . I don't think it would take much more if it would.
All indications are the Chargers will take a RT @ 5 if they stay put. If you're not taking Nabers, getting 2 1st rounders sounds a lot better than taking a RT @ 5. [Reply]
The New York Giants aren’t leaving the draft without a QB and everything points to them taking one tomorrow. Sure sounds like Joe Schoen is getting in position to pick a QB tomorrow night #NYGiants
Didn’t realize that Jayden Daniels old ass has been playing in college so long that he beat Justin Herbert by throwing a TD to Brandon Aiyuk :-) [Reply]
