I wish it was earlier! 1st pick isn't until 1am here. I have no trouble staying awake for the late games, but won't manage this

Just make sure you wake up early and you'll catch the Redskins pick. With all the commercial breaks, 8am your time ought to do it. :P

This draft is like watching water freeze. SF seems to have been "on the clock" since this afternoon.

So far (10 picks in), a lot of teams seem to be picking based on their needs. The commentators seem to think there's a lot of reaching going on. That can only be good news for us, with better-rated players falling toward 21.

Can't believe the Giants took Apple at 10 over Hargrave...
Not surprised, but Cowboys in desperate need of D help went offensive flash... Will that move us towards DT beef?

NY's pick was a bit baffling. I was afraid they'd take Tunsil, to be honest. It should be fun watching Garcon on Apple next season.

Surprised with Oakland's pick... there will be lots of talent on the board at 21...if we use it.

HEck, I was starting to hope Tunsil would still be on the board for us... oh, well...

Brown's pick pretty much guarantees a trading partner in Cincy... if we want it.

With the way things are shaping up, there will be plenty of prospects left if we're able to trade down a dozen spots.

Couldn't be going better for us right now. Lots of good options available and maybe a chance to trade back a bit too.

Looks like a trade! I wonder how much we'll get for moving down just one spot.

Sources say:

Redskins get: #22 pick

It is AMAZING how the network I watch manages to go to commercial whenever the Skins are on the clock. Every year, every round.
