This is the night where we all rub our temples, and mutter "so Chantel Jennings got the ax, but Mel Kiper still has a prominent job?!"
Good luck to all the Wolverines, and to the Detroit Lions!
That's it! Close the thread!
God help us if he was doing that while thinking of Kiper
NTTAWWT!
Todd McShay still collecting a paycheck is just as bad. At least Mel's got the distinction of having done this a long time. McShay's just a guy in a suit ESPN found when they were cleaning out the gutters.

How can you question the value of a man who coined "upside potential?"
Obviously biased, but I still think Taco and Peppers still squeeze in the 1st rd.
Also, after seeing Charmin's endorsement of Butt, I feel Taco Bell and Tabasco are missing out big time by not signing those two for hilarious promotions.
Maybe University of Louisville could endorse Malik Hooker?
rofl at the twitter handle devoted to pointing out how dumb Kiper is.
Are there any Wolverines in attendance tonight?
If you are a Browns fan, Lions fan, fan of a few other select teams out there, this is also going to be the drinking thread for the evening. I just thought I would throw that out there now so there wasn't too much overlap in our draft coverage.

If you play by these rules, you'll be hungover until Halloween.
Hope Detroit can get one of these drafts before too long. Seems like it might be a bit of alright. 3 days of hope (as opposed to the postseson for a Lions fan).
to give us that pearl.
Yeah don't tread on this NFL draft, or me.
The NBA and NHL playoffs are also on and you're complaining?!
...'fuck outta here.
Oh look, "complain about thread, yet post in thread" guy strikes again.
Why is that a bad thing?
If they're 5 horrible threads...by all means. Rip him. But if someone makes 5 good threads, you should thank them for provide quality content on a free website.
It has nothing to do with the number of threads someone starts.
That's always been one of the shittiest "blog disses" someone could use. Quality over quantity.

and a much more complex offense.
This is a disastrous pick for the bears. Saw Trubisky play a few times here and lol.
You may be right, but what is insane is what they gave up to move up 1 spot - 3rd and 4th round pick this year and a 3rd round next year.
Even Matt Millen is laughing at the Bears....
So you are having a fun night!
Why on Earth would Cleveland need to run to clock down prior to their pick?

Minus the questions about effort
Is Mel Kiper definitely coked up or just probably?
