At least this year there will be no Jason and Charlotte under the mistletoe :lmao:
Thank goodness, that was getting weird, lol..

I love that hes in NY, if they take Wills at 4, who I dont think is the best tackle, maybe the best RT) what are the odds Jason put in a call to his good buddy Saban?

When I was much younger and the entire draft was on Saturday starting at 8:00am and going to anywhere from 8:00pm - 9:00pm and a couple years until 10:00pm I watched it all. As I got older I would watch the beginning and watched until the Cowboys made their 1st round pick and then either watched other stuff or did other things and checked back every little while to see when the Cowboys next pick would be. If when I checked back and they were only 1 or 2 picks away I would stay and watch and then repeat what I had just done.

Now with the 1st round on Thursday nights I watch until the Cowboys make their pick and then switch to something else. I do the same on Fridays and Saturdays that I used to do when it was all on one day. I just don't all excited about watching who other teams draft. After the draft I can scan and read the entire draft in less time than it takes teams to make their 1st round picks. As far as listening to what the draft gurus say about the players the Cowboys draft, it means nothing because the only ones that matter are the coaches and what they say and see in camp, preseason and regular season games. Anything they say about the players on draft day can be seen on videos later although what are they going to say other than how happy they are that they got that player.
.
I don't remember it being televised back then.

The draft is my Christmas and with all that's going on, we need it! With that said, I was really getting onboard the Jamal Adams train so Jerry took a little steam out of that train when he said that was unlikely. But I'm still ready to go!

In a way, it really is like Christmas Eve!

Think of all the great presents that each scenario usually brings to us.
I'm just hoping this year brings us better presents than what last year's "Christmas Eve" brought us!:thumbup:

I love it! My favorite time of year! I agree about having a first round pick. When we don't it's like being divorced and the other parent has the kids for Xmas. Brutal.

I love the draft! It is something I look forward to every year.. I do miss the all-day Saturday draft but I can live with how they are doing it now..

Hopefully it's not like the year I wanted an Optimus Prime toy and got some socks and corduroy pants.

How many of you feel this way?
And because we have a first-round pick, we don't feel like the kid with coal in his stocking like we did last year. :laugh:
Then again, Scrooge is a high-stakes deal away. ;)

I do. I was just telling my son yesterday that “tomorrow is Christmas” and he gave me that funny look like I was insane. I said three letters son: N F L draft. lol.

Santa has been practicing social distancing forever, so no problem on his end if he wants to deliver this team the goods . :D

The Cowboys did have a 1st round pick last year and they used it on Cooper who was someone who already proved he could play in the NFL and not a college player who hasn't.
.
You know what I mean. That's like getting a Christmas present on your birthday with no more present forthcoming.

My wife just found out and said to me, "Did you know the NFL draft is tonight?" :laugh:
