Its draft day

April 25, 2019

Its draft day!!! … Where is everybdy??? Of course, the thing doesn’t start until 8 PM ET later this evening. so we’ll still get another solid ten-plus hours of idle speculation. Indeed, as of this morning there does not appear to be anything much really new on the buzz wire. There is still speculation that Atlanta and Washington are the teams most likely to trade up into the top ten, while the NY Jets appear to be working the hardest to trade down. Meanwhile, Arizona still hasn’t committed publicly to taking Oklahoma QB Kyler Murray with the first pick overall, although the fact that the Cardinals are still apparently hawking QB Josh Rosen is a pretty strong indication that QB Kyler Murray will be the first player chosen. And while the ‘drama’ at #1 appears to be mostly ‘made for TV’ there could be real drama early on this evening. Will the Jets trade the #3 pick? Will Oakland take a QB at #4? Will the Giants take a QB at #6? And that’s just in the first half dozen picks or so. Should be a fascinating evening!
