I will say that the NFL labor dispute has destroyed my ordinary interest in the draft.

I couldn't tell you anything about half of the players who will go in the top 50. I normally have encyclopedic knowledge of the top 300 or so prospects.

Heh. I just saw a mock draft from Feb 23. Guess who the #1 pick was? - Strongbad Apr 21, 12:30 1
- This is how it works. People move away from what they know while no football is being played. - David Apr 21, 12:33
I agree. Plus no interesting trades. Example from my team...would Elway move Orton on draft day if the deal was right? -- nm - Jim Apr 21, 12:30 7
- Answering your question, to the best of my knowledge, players cannot be traded right now. So, it's not their call. -- nm - David Apr 21, 12:35 4

    - I'll be curious to see how many GMs take my point of view... - David Apr 21, 12:38 2
      - Well...there's been some talks from the broncos that Elway may deal with Shanahan. Since Washington's 1st and 2nd don't equal up to #2...they - Jim Apr 21, 12:41 1
        
        I find it hard to believe anybody would do that deal, even the Redskins. - David Apr 21, 12:59
- Our card trading site has a pick the first round contest going right now...I'm gonna have to use McShay, Kiper and Co to even have enough names to - Jim Apr 21, 12:31 1
  - FWIW, I think the "trade into the bottom of the first round to get a QB" brigade is overstating it. - David Apr 21, 12:34
