This article suggests that the clock starts at 8:02 ET and that the Bears will pick by 8:12.Apologies because I'm gonna assume this has already been asked-and-answered 12 times in this thread and I'm too lazy to reread it all: what time are the Bears actually going on the clock with 1-1?
I don't need to see another 20 minutes of pregame rehashing everything I'm already sick of knowing. ["Quarterbacks are really important." "Harrison is a generational talent -- or maybe just the second or third best WR in the draft!" "Lots of OL going in Round 1" "The is the Pats first draft without Bill Belichick in a long time!"]
Right, Goodell usually announces quickly that the 1st team is on the clock, but with 10 minutes to make their pick that's when Mugsy will be subjected to Schefter breathlessly informing us that the Patriots will either use their pick or trade it.This article suggests that the clock starts at 8:02 ET and that the Bears will pick by 8:12.

He's literally half the width of Cam.Jayden Daniels looks like a child standing next to Cam Newton.
I had the same exact thought. I knew he was small but it wasn’t fair to stand that kid next to Cam Newton right before the draft. Wash probably saw that and changed the channel.He's literally half the width of Cam.
"At the end of the night, when interviewed, Mayo said, 'I thought Jonathan was turning in the card. That fucker has been trying to run the team all winter anyway so I never thought they'd let me to do it.'"There is the whole late turning in the card third option.
Just don’t get filched out of the likes of Drake Maye.As someone mentioned in the Maye thread, Rap said the Giants and Vikings are going to make a hard push when the Patriots are on the clock.
Five minutes later it was echoed by another reporter. Clearly both teams want the word out.
No matter what they ultimately do, in the lead up to the draft the Patriots played this perfectly.
https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/patriots-are-currently-expected-to-use-third-pick-on-drake-mayeThree years after the Patriots used a first-round pick on Tom Brady’s potential successor, they’re are it again.
Per a league source, the current expectation is that the Patriots will sit tight at No. 3 and take North Carolina quarterback Drake Maye.
The Giants (at No. 6) and the Vikings (at No. 11) had been linked to a potential trade up to No. 3. The Patriots wanted a lot. While that could change in the next hour or so, the Patriots aren’t expected to get enough of an offer to trade the pick.
The challenge then will become getting Maye ready. They have Jacoby Brissett and Baily Zappe. Will Maye play right away or later?
not even with BB shooting the shit McAfee?The drafts have become such cringefests, I can't sit through them any more. I used to love the draft prior to 2010, it was such a fun day. One of the highlights of the sports year.
Imagine the cost would be #34, right?
I mean the NFL production sucks. It's so scripted and awkward. Grateful to have other viewing options. Still miss the old days where it was one fantastic Saturday. Plus, I was awake when the first round ended. Screw the West coast and their time zone.not even with BB shooting the shit McAfee?
Why is it so apparent? Could be like their 2024 third and a second or third next year or whatever.Apparently
Well I’d be interested in the haul.Two hours away until the Pats pick (or trade). I need it to be over. If they don't come out of this first round with a QB, I'm going to puke.
Pats would probably need to know about the trade before the 34th pick, because it would have an impact on who they’d take there… but I’d doubt they’d trade 34Imagine the cost would be #34, right?
Pats need someone who can stay healthy. Pass on Deebo.Russini Tweeted that Deebo is available as well.
Well, it could be a sign and trade.If I'm giving up #34, I want a guy that's under contract for more than a year. No thank you.
Also, one that’s not arguably the third best (and some may argue 4th) pass catcher on his team.If I'm giving up #34, I want a guy that's under contract for more than a year. No thank you.
Now is the time to spend on WR, Edge and/or OT while they have (hopefully) a cheap QB room. If they can execute this for a R2 pick next year or a R3 pick this year, I'd be pumped.
Of course it is. Elliot is brutal. I love it. Ripping their hearts out unless they really pay up.This just strikes me as classic negotiation

Anyone trading for Aiyuk is going to then make him the highest paid WR in the league on an extensionIf I'm giving up #34, I want a guy that's under contract for more than a year. No thank you.
Yeah, I wonder where the New England Patriots and their NFL leading cap space for 2024 and 2025 could possibly get money to pay a very good player from. You wouldn't even sniff a player of Aiyuk's caliber with #34 if he were under contract for 2+ years.If I'm giving up #34, I want a guy that's under contract for more than a year. No thank you.
I would argue that one of the best draft day trades the Patriots ever made was with the 49ers for a guy that became expendable once the 49ers drafted over him. Niners drafted McGlinchey in the first round, and it made Trent Brown expendable, and the Patriots gave a third rounder for him (and might have gotten a pick back)? I think it was for one year and I don't think the Patriots win the Super Bowl without that trade. Of course, they are not exactly in GFIN mode this year.

That's not worth watching unless Nike is in the room with them.20ish minutes until Bill and Pat become best friends:

What if Nike was the only one there? Bill is off yachting somewhere.That's not worth watching unless Nike is in the room with them.
Well, there are all new episodes of Young Sheldon, Ghosts, So Help Me Todd, and Elsbeth, so CBS has you covered.The drafts have become such cringefests, I can't sit through them any more. I used to love the draft prior to 2010, it was such a fun day. One of the highlights of the sports year.
Anyone want to hear my thoughts on the 2018 Trent Brown draft day trade for the Patriots with Niners?For #34?
Not sure, I've been hanging out in the Nick Cattles-free gamethread.For #34?
They did a bang up job in free agency, players were lining up to take their money. I'm sure Aiyuk is psyched about pairing up with Jacoby Brissett with no LT.Yeah, I wonder where the New England Patriots and their NFL leading cap space for 2024 and 2025 could possibly get money to pay a very good player from.
