2016 NFL Draft: Day 1, Round 1

[SeoulSoxFan]

Here we are, sans our beloved Patriots. The draft will still impact the Patriots, least of which are the selections by the Jets, Bills, and the Phins.

Some parameters:

• Feel free to "spoil" the pick if you see it elsewhere before the broadcast
• For posting Tweets, please copy and paste the text along with the Tweet link for mobile users
• It's a "game thread" so fire away with one-liners and emojis
• However, the old SoSH mantra of "Do Not Suck" and "Argue the Post, not the Poster" rules stand

Please vote on the quick poll. If more than half of you want a non-spoiler thread, I'll open one up.

Anyone have a recommendation for a draft tracker app? Will likely be watching the C's and Sox tonight for the most part

 

[Kenny F'ing Powers]

Wow. This snuck up on me. Mainly because fuck The NFL. I've watched at least the first 3-4 rounds of every draft for the last decade, but I managed to block this draft from my vision to the point that I wasn't aware that it was starting so soon.

I will not be watching and fuck the NFL.

*end vent/rant*

 

[Jungleland]

Same. Usually this is one of the most exciting days of the Spring for me but this year I couldn't be less interested.

 

[shoosh77]

Round two, sure. First round, I'm sure I have some tasks like taxes or something to do tonight.

 

[RG33]

I hope Roger Goodell dies in a fire and his children watch him burn.

I'm not watching tonight.

 

[GregHarris]

538 with an interesting graphic:

Interesting bump for RB's drafted in the 5th, and QB's drafted in the 6th...

 

[NortheasternPJ]

I hope Roger Goodell dies in a fire and his children watch him burn.

I'm not watching tonight.

I'm hoping he ends up here I'd be much more satisfied:

 

[GregHarris]

+1 for not using the "feed me Seymour" sarlacc.

 

[PayrodsFirstClutchHit]

I am going to watch long enough to see this draft's Tim Couch and Ryan Leaf go 1-2 and then call it a night.

I will check-in round 2 when there is hope of an eventual Pats pick.

Rahm is there. No gunshots yet.

 

[bankshot1]

So will Roger do a victory dance when he announces:

The New England Patriots have forfeited the 29th pick so the Arizona Cardinals are on the clock

 

[ifmanis5]

So will Roger do a victory dance when he announces:

The New England Patriots have forfeited the 29th pick so the Arizona Cardinals are on the clock

I'm betting it won't be mentioned at all.

Omg he is gonna do this isn't he. Thank god I will be asleep.

 

[ifmanis5]

Boomer & Mel wishing Mort well now. *Tweet deleted*

 

[PayrodsFirstClutchHit]

Tuned back in time for the Mort eulogy. God rest his sole.

Tuned back in time for the Mort eulogy. God rest his sole.

Or his halibut

 

[ifmanis5]

No boos for Roger. Yet.

 

[soxfan121]

That's a bold move ten minutes before the draft starts, Cotton.

 

[ifmanis5]

LOL, that is HIGH.

 

[SeoulSoxFan]

So will the Rams pick Ryan Leaf or Ryan Leaf?

 

[LesterFan]

 

[pappymojo]

The new Eagles icon looks like it is taking a shit.

 

[ifmanis5]

There's my Roger booing.

 

[Papelbon's Poutine]

The new Eagles icon looks like it is taking a shit.

The one they've had for twenty years?

 

[pappymojo]

Both trams knew who they wanted but still dragged it out. This is worse than the fifth round of a fantasy draft when someone's internet connection drops.

 

[Darnell's Son]

The guys at Inside the Pylon are doing a live broadcast on Youtube if you want some non-Kiper takes on the draft action.

 

[SeoulSoxFan]

Wow. Chargers didn't go for Jalen Ramsey. MISS!

Awesome. I'm there!

 

[soxfan121]

@Bosoxen There's a non-zero chance Jerry asked if he could take Johnny Football with this pick.

Jerry Jones, Football Genius.

 

[cournoyer]

The gift that keeps on giving

Edit: Wrong thread, apologies!

 

[Gunfighter 09]

I wonder if Spike feels the same way, but I love that Bosa pick in San Diego.

 

[Greg29fan]

Dallas Cowboys: dumbest organization in sports

 

[Shelterdog]

I wonder if Spike feels the same way, but I love that Bosa pick in San Diego.

As in its a good pick or you're happy as a raiders fan?

 

[ifmanis5]

Gruden REALLY likes the Boys.

 

[( . ) ( . ) and (_!_)]

Jax going to take a tackle and gift Baltimore the best player in the draft? Because Ozzie

 

[Gunfighter 09]

As in its a good pick or you're happy as a raiders fan?

Happy as a Raiders fan.

I really didn't want to see Ramsey next to Verrett in that secondary and King Dunlap brings me great happiness a couple times a year, so I didn't want to see Tunsil replace him.

 

[SeoulSoxFan]

Jax are going somewhere in 2016. Love the Ramsey pick.

 

[Gunfighter 09]

Jax are going somewhere in 2016. Love the Ramsey pick.

Love that pick in a Gus Bradley defense.

 

[bagwell1]

How Bout Them Cowboys! Thank you! Never thought the Jags would get Ramsey. Great night. Now just don't get hurt 5 minutes into camp

 

[SeoulSoxFan]

Lonnie Stanley with the best suit I've ever seen at a draft.

 

[Papelbon's Poutine]

Wow, tunsil sliding. Browns could snag him and move Thomas.

 

[soxfan121]

Lonnie Stanley with the best suit I've ever seen at a draft.

Sorry. Nothing tops Zeke's half-shirt.

 

[Greg29fan]

Wow, tunsil sliding. Browns could snag him and move Thomas.

""I WAZ HACKED!!!"

“@JasonColeBR: Laremy Tunsil may fall a lot. Source said his Twitter account was hacked and the video is old. But not denying that’s him in video smoking.”

According to NFLN, his account was hacked, but it was him with the bong, so this will be interesting.

 

[wilked]

Did he lose his mind? I am trying to see how someone could do that
