NFL Draft Day

This is my one of my favorite times of the year. It's the NFL Draft and it's on today and tomorrow. So I will be spending the day in my home in front of the TV (while doing other things) watching all the drama unfold. Unlike in other sports, in the NFL the drama makes it worth watching. Everywhere, football fans go partying like a typical Saturday or Sunday during football season. So my assessment of the draft will be posted here once the first round is over. There are a few changes in response to last year's first round that took forever to complete with teams using their 15 minutes even though they know the player they wanted. The draft starts at 3pm ET (as opposed to 12pm last year) and teams will have 10 minutes to make their picks in the first round and 7 in the second.

We already know that Jake Long, the tackle from Michigan, will be the first player taken in the draft as the Dolphins reached an agreement with him. What the Rams do next will shape the rest of the draft. Will they take Glenn Dorsey or Chris Long? Only they know the answer to that question.
