Its not like teams do that well drafting anyway.  They are wrong more than the are right.

They might be better off with less time.

 

I think it'll go about like usual. Smart teams will generally make smart moves. Dumb teams will generally make dumb moves. I don't think any amount of time (or lack thereof) would change that. Dumb teams will just use the lack of time as a crutch to excuse the poor moves they would've made anyway. It's not a coincidence that Elway is one of the GMs crying about this. He's been drafting pretty terribly in recent years.

Saint's Loomis wants it delayed too and he's been drafting very well. Elway made the request but said they'd be ok if that request isn't possible to grant. That's not really crying.

Everyone is having to adapt to a new way of life and a new way of conducting business right now. The NFL is no different. Smart teams will still find a way to build a good draft board and have a successful draft. Other teams will watch Marty Hurney throw poo at the wall.

Marty’s process of making a draft board.

NFL would be stupid to postpone it. This can only help the Panthers get on even footing for a change. Not sure how I feel about a round per night

I think that some folks here are GREATLY overestimating the knowledge Rhule and his staff will be bringing to the table.  Sure, they'll know Temple and LSU.  They'll have a good idea with regards to teams that Temple and LSU played this year.  But that's what?  25-30 college teams?

There are 125 Division 1 programs.  Don't even get me started on the lower divisions.

This falls on our college scouts, make no mistake about it.

Typical of many huddlers.  

[Jared Patterson]

Y'all are all hype about Rhule taking over the reigns of drafting. Don't be surprised when we trade back up into the first round for James Lynch and take all Baylor players the rest of the draft....

[Jared Patterson]

Literally Chad Reuter has us trading back up to the first for Lynch. Says Rhule is obsessed with him and will over draft him.

I miss when the draft came on all day Saturday and all day Sunday on ESPN and you could just tune in when you wanted or take a nap on the couch watching the later rounds. This crap now is an overblown spectacle. Look at last year, some douche country singer I’ve never heard of was on there analyzing picks. Lol.

Another day, another Mr. Scot’s thread.

Was just thinking the same thing.

A lot of teams really love their personal interviews. No shot for that this year.

Can't bring guys in, but still can talk on phone or video chat.  Not the same as in person, but should still be able to get a feel for the person.  

[Snake]

We are in a unique position to have a college coaching staff that knows a bunch of these players. Could be an advantage. 

[The Huddler]

i cant wait for Rhule to stuff yalls mouths full of poo when he slam dunks this draft. 

 

some of yall are too sure of yourselves. classic of people who literally spent all of their time on a message board. 

[GoPanthers123]

Two heads are better than one.  Hurney and Rhule can figure this one out.  No more projects in 3rd round, thanks.
