Anthem Watch:
Little bit of a slow rendition but still a cracking set of pipes and at least she isn't fucking about with it bar the speed.

Curveball, Cards take Bosa here and Murray slips out of the top 5.
The Lions want to trade down to the Falcons pick.
It's started
The annual booing of the NFL commissioner never gets old
Mariota
I'm glad the Eagles dickhead didn't win.
That list of first round picks under Steve Keim is disgustingly bad.
Oh shit the Bengals want Murray
No they don't.
Smith was just saying that they might be willing to move up and take a QB. They wont have enough capital to go up to 1 or 2.
CBS just confirmed it's Murray.
Amazing.
I predict that he will miss at least 6 games due to injury this season.
He won't last a season.
Rosen is potentially getting traded to either Redskins or Giants apparently.
Fuck me they locked him into a 4 year contract worth over $35m
That's bold and stupid.
Nick Bosa is going to destroy Kyler.
If we're trading down the Raiders are going to sneak in I feel.
...or someone like the Broncos or something.
They weren't going to trade down with Quinnen Williams/Josh Allen there.
Yeah we took Williams.
Jets have a scary defence now.
Smart choice here is Ed Oliver or Josh Allen.
Raiders move is a QB.
I was hearing rumours that he'd be available in the 20s.
They fucked it.
They could have gotten him with their next pick. Possibly.
Why not Allen?
CBS had him at 21, 16, 21, 16, 21, 21 in their mocks
Apparently Oliver and Allen have the same agent as Khalil Mack so they didn't want to go down that road
So Josh Allen to the Giants then?
Read a few reports saying that Devin White MIGHT slip to us at 22 but I felt him going out of the top 10 would be crazy.
So a younger version of Eli.
Got it.
I thought they were going for a lineman here but they clearly couldn't say no to Allen.
Stunning.
Cards have fucked this hard.
They set too big a price on derpy Rosen and now they'll have to hope that someone will be willing to give a third. They've lost all the BIG trade partners now.
Eagles trolled Texans hard.
Jumped above them to take the player they wanted and they panicked MASSIVELY.
Edit: HOLLYWOOD!!!!!!!!!!!
Still think we should have taken Cody Ford but it's still a HUGE pick.

As soon as I saw we traded up I knew the Josh Jacobs dream was over. Still top work gazumping the Texans like that.
It's never flashy taking a tackle there but the team is pretty stacked in most places. Maybe a little weak at corner for my liking but it's been fine in the play-offs the past 2 seasons.
Well that was one of the most predictable top 10s I can recall. Glad I decided not to bother getting up after my pre-draft nap now
Clelin Ferrell was the only big shock - even Pittsburgh coming up for Devin Bush wasn't all that surprising. Houston taking Tytus Howard was the obligatory 'lolwut' pick for this year, especially as Jawaan Taylor, Cody Ford & Dalton Risner are all still on the board. Falcons trading up for Kaleb McGary gets a similar response. Lindstrom & Savage might be surprises, but they're both quality players (Savage in particular has the most enjoyable film to watch of anyone in the draft), and
Dillard & Hollywood should be a couple of good picks, and Denver did well trading back & taking Fant, but the Titans taking Jeffery Simmons might be the best pick of the round. Sure he'll miss most/all of next season, but he's an absolute monster & putting him with Harold Landry is almost enough to make me a secret Titans fan. Panthers getting Brian Burns is up there too.
Also this is an exceptional tweet:

The Denver pick feels a bit underwhelming but hopefully we'll make up for it with the extra pick. (We won't.)
That all sounds boring.
Tyreek Hill is done.
Kansas City Chiefs general manager Brett Veach told reporters Thursday night that wide receiver Tyreek Hill "will not take part in any team activities" for the foreseeable future after a television station aired audio that shows Hill telling his fiancee about punching and using a belt to discipline their son one day after prosecutors reluctantly declined to file charges in a domestic incident.
Mong.
Less than eight hours later, KCTV in Kansas City aired part of an 11-minute audio file in which Hill's fiancee, Crystal Espinal, tells Hill their son had said, "Daddy did it."
Hill denies any role in what happened to the child's arm, adding: "He says Daddy does a lot of things."
She also tells Hill their son is "terrified of you."
Hill replies, "You need to be terrified of me, too, b----."
Later in the conversation, Espinal asks Hill, "What do you do when the child is bad? You make him open up his arms and you punch him in the chest."
What an absolute cunt.
I find it amusing that the NFL make such a big deal about all these interviews draft-bods have to do and the psychological profiling they get up to. Either they take no real heed of it (likely) or it's just absolute shite (also likely) seeing as every mongo and his dog seems to get through if they're athletically capable.
Guess KC'll have to wear it and then some other team will pick him up after he's served his half-season ban or whatever it will be.
He also punched and strangled his fiance when she was pregnant just before the draft.
So no one could have seen this coming.
Enjoyed that. Seems wild that th cardinals are deciding to move on already. If Rosen was pissed at going tenth last year he will probably explode today.
I can't wait for New England to take Rosen for a mid second rounder & end up with another decade of playoff football once Brady is done.
Couldn't help but notice the three other AFC East teams all took athletic, penetrating interior defensive lineman

Shitloads of talent left, with plenty of room for surprise reaches still. This class isn't great on R1 talent, but there are a fuckload of players in the R2-R4 range, so we should get some serious value the rest of the way. I think day two is my favourite day of the draft

Tyreek Hill is vermin but then we all knew that before all this happened.
I was reading somewhere that Metcalf's cone agility numbers were around Tom Brady's at the combine. Dude is a bust waiting to happen.
He wont be a bust but he'll only really be someone who runs a very basic route tree (go routes pretty much).
The size and speed will ensure that he's not a failure but he wont be a star.
That's some nice business by the Dolphins. Last year's 10th overall pick for 48th this year.
