I'm pretty sick of NFL draft information, reports, speculation, etc. Profootballtalk.com has to be the worst regurgitated football news site ever. They report something as draft news, then immediately follow it with the standard "of course this could be a smoke screen" BS. You either have to take things at face value right now, or just simply admit that everything happening is complete BS right now. Check out the latest report from profootballtalk.com. This is all getting ridiculous and makes NFL fans look like a bunch of paranoid desperate housewives.
BEARS PLANNING FRIDAY VISIT WITH THOMAS
Posted by Mike Florio on April 24, 2008, 8:59 a.m.
At a time when most of the smoke signals emanating from Halas Hall suggest that the Chicago Bears will focus on improving the offensive line and/or the running game with the 14th overall pick in the draft, a league source tells us that receivers coach Darryl Drake is heading to Michigan on Friday to meet with, and possibly to work out, receiver Devin Thomas.
Of course, there’s a chance that the smokescreen is the team’s eleventh-hour interest in Thomas. If the Bears can cajole the Bills into taking him at No. 11, or dupe someone into jumping in front of them at No. 14, there’s a chance that the player whom they truly covet will slip through to them.
Regardless of the motive, the fact remains that the meeting will occur on Friday. If the Bears were hoping to send out phony vibes about their interest in Thomas, they presumably would have met with him earlier than the day before the draft.
Unless, of course, they want the phony vibes to be really convincing.
