If people weren't watching, it wouldn't BE on TV.

I don't watch does not = nobody watches.

As a fan, I'd rather see at least a couple of rounds on the first night, if not three rounds like you said.

But as a Seahawk fan, there's probably a pretty good chance that Schneider trades out of the first round tonight, which makes all of that waiting even a little bit worse ...

I'll take your word for it. I didn't even like the book, so I didn't bother watching the movie.

I'm sure it was well done.

Thoroughly enjoyed the movies. Didn't read the book.

I know a worse feeling this year.

Yah but you don't sit around for 2 hours+ biting your lips and getting anxiety, and then just have your team drop a giant anvil on your face when they trade back. Wasn't as bad when the draft wasn't split into so many days lol.

Trust us we NE fans know all about trading back, picking no names, reaching for players...

I bet you'd take it a lot easier if Seattle had another 2012 like draft:nod:

We had our first round that year lol. Not talking about legendary drafts that teams had. Just talking about it sucks when your team trades out of the first towards the end of the first round because you've been anticipating it for so long lol.

I'm sure it was well done.

LOTR Trilogy won a total of 17 Oscars.
Return of the King, alone, won 11 of them, including Best Picture (tying Ben Hur and Titanic for most ever.)
Yeah, all three movies were "well done."

oh, and re: the thread subject?
I agree with the OP. 1st Round only is bogue; they should do at least #1 and #2.

Why not do rounds 1-3 the first day, 3-6 the second day and then finish it all off the 3rd day.... I just don't get the logic of setting everything up, getting the place filled with people and just doing 1 round the first day... I liked the draft way better prior to 2010 when we got to sit down and enjoy it all day... But hey, if they're hell bent on making it 3 day's at least split it up better....

Clearly you didn't graduate with a degree in marketing. lol

The draft is pretty much a two day affair for the Hawks anyway
Disagree bro. Plus all the UDFA's that Seattle and other teams work over. Seattle BTW, pushes the entire scope of getting UDFA's They have had so much success there, they mine the shit out of it.

It was much better when it was all on one day.

We used to play an awesome draft game where drinks would be distributed by the person(s) who got the picks correct. If only 1 person got it correct then they would distribute a shot to everyone else. We would only play for 3 rounds as everyone would be shitfaced and it was almost impossible to predict picks that round regardless.

Nowdays, half of the picks are announced before they are officially announced, and they spread it out over 3 days starting on a Thursday! To me the draft is a weekend event and starting it on a Thursday is blasphemy.

It's all for more money I am sure... If the NFL could make more money doing it in one day you know for certain they would do it
