Likely a not issue, but apologies in advance if I'm a log jam tomorrow (not sure how quickly it will move):

I won't be able to make pick 78 until after midnight or Tuesday morning. Starting a new job tomorrow and won't risk being the guy on his cell phone day 1, have a team lunch scheduled, and then am attending a concert with the wife in the evening. We are too far out for me to forward anyone a list of pick preferences right now.

I’m sure we’ll be good.

The NY Giants select Khalil Shakir, WR, Boise State.

C'mon Tit - I've talked myself into and out of about 7 different guys over the weekend. Can you just make a pick so I can go ahead and **** this up?

Man the board's starting to look weird.

Ugh.

I was really hoping one of you guys would take this dude so I could congratulate you on making a good pick and not have to take him myself.

The Jets select: Tariq Woolen, CB - UTSA

He's so damn raw and may be out of the league before his rookie contract is up. He could go in the top of the 2nd or at the bottom of the 4th. I really can't read him much at all.

But those attributes just don't come along very often. And he's raw because he's just learning the position. Meanwhile he's demonstrated some awfully good aptitude for the position and while I got a steal in Booth for the Jets earlier, it's not like the Jets have a ton of depth anywhere.

So with a team so clearly in need of talent just about everywhere and not under immediate pressure to win right away, I just have to stockpile as many potential blue-chippers as I can get.

There are MUCH smarter, more rational picks on the board here. Guys who could probably contribute on Day 1 and have significantly higher floors. But man I just can't pass on this athleticism and length. Especially when the guy has shown a willingness to get his nose dirty despite just recently making the conversion to defense.

That's a lot of talent for the Jets.

Looked at him and got so flustered trying to figure out how I ranked the TEs in this draft that I threw my hands up and decided to wait and see how the board looks in the 4th.

Did the same thing at a couple other positions as well. I said all along I didn't study deep into this draft and I'm starting to notice it. After about 75 players I'm pretty much pulling names out of a hat.

No LB can stop the run well if the guys in front of him are Swiss cheese.

I just don't see how they can spend their top pick on a LB two years (almost 3) in a row.

Ryan Poles struts back up to the mike.

"Hey, ya'll. You know what I've learned? The name. Of the game. Is SPARQ and RAS. Are they athletic freaks who just leap up at you? And hey, let's be honest. This is my first year. If I'm gonna swing for the fences and have some cover since it's my first draft as a GM, let's do it on guys that have huge upside, and not waste it on not athletic turds whose main highlight tape consists of them making landshark head fins with their hands."

(Cut to Brett Veach in the audience, seen mouthing "Ouch, bro. Ouch. Dick move!).

The Chicago Bears select Troy Andersen, LB, Montana State

Top that, Seahawks!

Anderson was one of the guys I talked myself into with that pick over the weekend.

Man he's an intriguing guy. And at worst he'll be a special teams demon for 4 years. His floor just seems so high.

I want the Chiefs to draft him so bad if he’s somehow there at the end of the 3rd. He’s perfect for the Ben Niemann role.

I think he's athletic enough to be the Darius Leonard/Fred Warner everyone talks about after this draft as someone most teams missed on.

I'd much rather have him/round3 than Lloyd in Round 1 (sorry, Tampa Berry. Not trying to beat you up. JMO).
