Pryor is just sitting there looking like a goon.

Can anyone enlighten me on the supplemental draft? Do teams take greater risk compared to the regular draft? Or is Drew blowing smoke when he says Pryor should go in the first round?

The teams bid on the players in a supplemental draft (If I read correctly) so lets say Cleveland wants him they can say offer a 7th rd pick for him, but maybe Kansas City says they will give a 5th round for him. If no one else will offer higher, then KC has drafted him and they give up their 5th round draft selection for next season.

I'm pretty sure with the lockout, he isn't allowed to work out for teams. There is no supplimental draft combine. He might very well go 3rd round if he could work out for teams and let them judge his willingness to switch to WR if QB doesn't work out, but since they're basically going to have to draft him on a wing and a prayer he's going to go several rounds lower then he otherwise would. This is why all the 6th/7th round talk is getting thrown around despite his undeniable athletic talent.

If there's one guy who likes to hear his own voice and see his own face more than Pryor, it's Drew Rosenhaus. 

If only all sports agents were like Rob Pelinka.

I'm assuming the pay scale for players taken in the supplemental draft is generally much lower than those taken in the regular draft?????

If TP is 9 credits shy of graduating--he of the infantile term paper and the inarticulate "everybody kills people" line and other idiotic statements--then that school is even easier to get through than I ever imagined.  Or I suppose he could be lying . . .

Think of the role model and influence he can have on the younger players when he comes back as a student.  No more burden of NCAA rules, he could really do a great job in corrupting the young...

I remember his epic press conference with Terrell Owens. When Rosenhaus wasn't saying, "next question" to the gathered media, he was professing his deep love for Owens. I needed to take a shower after watching it. He and TP are made for each other.
