The draft Is boring oand for sure something not to be watched. But I get what you mean it's important but never understood the time wasted on mocks and such.

Anybody else bored and tired of all the endless mock drafts and pointless speculation? This is definitely the most boring 6+ weeks of the NFL calendar.

I’m just ready for the draft the be here so that this board will have something tangible to argue about again haha.

Go Cowboys.

More tired of the same repetitive negative crap on here. :muttley:

I am with ya, ready for the draft.
Usually this time we are getting the schedule release and leaks. As it takes up some time for that, and the actual schedule discussions. However, seeing how they released it in May last year. And with the 17th game added. I bet it will be mid May before it will be released.

Which sucks, because they will probably make it the regular time frame.
All I seen so far is the season will begin September 9th, end January 9th, and the SB will be February 13th.

Man you hit the nail on the head. :hammer: I don’t pay attention to all the mock drafts here. I don’t get the infatuation with them. Like we know who the good players are or not. The best thing about the draft is that soon after rookie mini-camps, then OTA’s then mini-camps all begin one after the other. Next thing you know, training camp will open.

This isn't the most boring part of the NFL calendar. The most boring part is the stretch between the last mini camp and the start of training camp. There's nothing going on then.

Week before maybe, but right now I am all about it. Between the trades that already happened and Dane Brugler dropping his annual draft guide and I am pretty occupied.

What's even more boring is stopping to complain about how bored we are!

I think it's better to do whatever we like and stay busy while we wait , , , o_O

I always thought the NFL should make the two worst teams play a game to win the 1st round pick. Sort of like a toilet bowl game after the super bowl.

The 2021 schedule will be released mid-May.
Followed by fans predicting wins and losses based on what little we know about the team in May. Predicting W’s and L’s on a schedule before a single practice....it’s what fans do!

i think the NFL has needed to move the draft to a much earlier date i mean does FA and the draft need to be so far apart.in some ways i wished the draft was first and easier to fill FA holes post draft..the insane mocks ad speculations and debates just spin far out of control IMO..the real people responsible for picking draft pick etc also go thought the constant overthinking and change their minds all the way to the draft..they dont need this much time to evaluate..

I still think we need some veterans if we want to take a step forward from last years team.

Constantly relying on rookies as your upgrade from the previous season will never get you anywhere.

That was so cool, thanks for reposting that. Totally forgot about it, but love how he slowed down and dragged his feet :laugh: Pure Dallas Cowboy move tbh, and kind of reminded me why I like to root for this team..."oh you want to hurry me off, okay I understand, I'll slow it down and add emphasis" :starspin:

Always wondered about that, is that a move by the NFLPA to ensure better salaries for the players? The timeline does seem like it should be flipped to benefit the teams.

I can’t wait for the “name brand” guys such as McNeil, Moehrig, Grant, and Nixon to go to other teams while we draft the names that aren’t household as much. We tend to do that a lot and take positions that make you scratch your head.
