DRAFT WILL STAY ON SATURDAY


ESPN's Chris Mortensen reports that the NFL will reduce round one of the draft from 15 minutes per team to ten minutes, but that the move will not result in a shift (unfortunate typoe narrowly averted) of round one to Friday night.


Per Mort, the draft will start a bit later on Saturday than noon in the East.
Mort also says that round two will drop from ten minutes to seven, and that all other rounds will entail only five minutes, as the practice has been.

sweet.......i like it a lot

BTW......I am hoping that we get either DE Chris Long or CB Malcolm Jenkins with Cleveland's pick if we decide to go defense. If we decide to go offense, I am hoping for Adarius Bowman.
