So here we are. Meh.
Tomorrow will bring a much-needed breath of fresh air for us all. Finally, this inevitable night is nigh upon us.
Yes, the Amari Cooper was clearly worth this. True, he's far better than any receiver projects to be in this draft. No, it's unlikely any player could have been had late in the first round that could have impacted the team like Amari. Said it then, and saying it now. I get it.
But, dang it. Crap. Son of a biscuit eater. I wanted to draft somebody tonight!
Once the adrenaline and endorphins subside, tonight washes away quickly whether you have a pick or not. Tomorrow, there'll be new energy for two picks that will be there to be had. Glory be.
Most of what gets drafted tonight will be Marcus Spears or Sammy Watkins. A bunch of big names with high hopes that turn out to be worse than Patrick Crayton or Miles Austin, neither of which were even mentioned for 5+ rounds in their day. Draft picks bust like grapes or woefully disappoint based on hype.
So I'll be there, front and center, taking in the drama. But it'll be tough to sit still.
Pass the whiskey.
