  - what do you expect, though? he's the only name anyone who isn't focused on football will recognize, of *course* they're going to talk about him. -- nm - znufrii Apr 26, 12:45 13
    - That would explain ESPN, not the NFL Network. -- nm - David Apr 26, 12:46 10
      - I don't know that there would be much distinction there, they're both covering an event with the goal of reaching as broad an audience as possible. - znufrii Apr 26, 12:53 9
        
        ESPN is for generic sports fans. NFL Network is for NFL obsessives. -- nm - David Apr 26, 12:55
        
        NFL Network is for the junkies. ESPN has more broad appeal. -- nm - Strongbad Apr 26, 12:55 6
        
        you would have had to be on drugs to watch NFLN, it was Atrocious with a capital A - Beaker Apr 26, 12:56 5
        
        but I say "got vertical" and "turned his hips" instead of "ran down the field" and "changed direction" !!! -- nm - Mayock SI Apr 26, 13:03

        I watched it, and it was fine - Spawn Apr 26, 12:57
        
        I doubt many non NFL people watch the NFL Network. -- nm - Spawn Apr 26, 12:54
    - Do people that aren't focused on football watch the NFL Draft on the NFL Network? -- nm - Strongbad Apr 26, 12:45 1
      - I'm sure that's what they're hoping for. -- nm - znufrii Apr 26, 12:47

    - "small" and "slow" are not 2 adjectives I want describing any player on my team. -- nm - Strongbad Apr 26, 12:49 1
      - he may be small and slow, but he makes up for it with poor decision making. -- nm - Reagen Apr 26, 13:07
    - He's going to need to have a team with quality linemen in front of him - Will Hunting Apr 26, 12:39 1
      - Right, he could play behind Ngata or Geno Atkins but it gets dicey if he is on his own. -- nm - David Apr 26, 12:41

jim, have you listened to pennercast? rob refs penner's famous "storyteller" interview. when was the - amanda Apr 26, 12:18 7
- Penner's storyteller thing was talking to Lisa Whelchel during last season. - Jim Apr 26, 12:22 6
  - it's pretty brilliant. penner is such a smart dude. -- nm - amanda Apr 26, 12:29 5
    - He's incredibly smart, but for some reason, it does not translate to Survivor success for the guy. -- nm - Jim Apr 26, 12:32 4
      - he made multiple mistakes, maybe because he thought he was so smart. -- nm - b. Apr 26, 12:41
      - He can't hide the douche nature enough. -- nm - David Apr 26, 12:40
      - an incredibly smart dude would have taken Lisa's offer to join her final four on the spot - charlie Apr 26, 12:39 1
        
        Really dumb move...but not a dumb guy. -- nm - Jim Apr 26, 12:43
Jags not expected to take a QB at #33. - David Apr 26, 12:18 11
- Honestly, maybe not much but this class is one that doesn't offer any real guarantee of "upgrade" - Will Hunting Apr 26, 12:22 9
  - Exactly. Before you bail on Option A, you have to have an Option B that's better. -- nm - Jim Apr 26, 12:23 8
    - I see it differently. If you *know* Option A has bombed twice, you are doing the team a disservice by not attempting option B. -- nm - David Apr 26, 12:27 6
      - Bah, I don't waste the pick or the money on a QB this year, if I'm the Jags. - Jim Apr 26, 12:32 2
        
        (this) - JaxSean Apr 26, 12:43
        
        Yup -- nm - Johnny Football Apr 26, 12:42
      - But if you pick Option B, you're kinda stuck with him for 2-3 years just becuase that's the expectation.... - Will Hunting Apr 26, 12:28 2
        
        A team can't be driven by that sort of fear. If Barkley can play *any*, they are 4 games better next year. -- nm - David Apr 26, 12:31 1
        
        I probably would just becuase I think I value Barkley more than most...but I could see others not thinking - Will Hunting Apr 26, 12:33
    - Note: This doesn't apply to the Jets becuase let's be honest, all the Options are better. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 26, 12:26
