IA Falcon07 Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 With virtual setups the 2020 NFL draft could be the most exciting and polarizing draft to ever occur. I imagine over the next few years there will be books written on the blunders, slip-ups, and intentional deceit that occurred. With multiple phones containing all GMs, video chats, and possibilities for Internet issues there is no doubt to be some rocky moments. Anyone else expecting pure chaos tonight outside of a potential Falcons trade? Can you imagine the Redskins GM "unintentionally" saying in the larger conference chat "give me a callback Thomas" to try to entice additional compensation from another team trying to trade? Another clumsy person mentions who they are thinking about taking to the overall group while trying to communicate with their own personnel and a team jumps them to steal their selection. There are so many possibilities for mistakes I can't imagine they don't happen. I just hope the Falcons front office is savvy enough to not be one of those teams that becomes a laughing stock (insert your joke here) after having a serious blunder. jidady 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thiccolas Cage Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 I'd hope they keep the cluster f**k to a minimum on this jank, but it will make for some entertainment. Speaking of which, how do I even watch the draft? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJisA-OK Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 It’s probably gonna be full of delays, buffering, dropped signals and technical difficulties but I will be watching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed with that, I am more intrigued by what could go on behind the scenes. Might not hear about it as it happens, but it'll be interesting none the less.

Boise Falcon Fan Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 I'm wondering if it won't really be live. In other words, if they are actually holding the draft a little bit early, and show it on tape delay. That would allow them time to deal with streaming issues.

thamill Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 I'm actually pretty bummed. I live in San Diego and Vegas is a 5 hour drive from here. I was planning to drive out there with some buddies today and stay until Sat morning. Stupid pandemic killed that plan.

With the #1 pick in the 2020 draft, the Bengals have exchanged picks with the New England Patriots for no good reason who select Joe Burrow. Wait what??? **** you Russia!!!!
