A great job by Bloom ... sounds like he had himself a real ball.

It's terrific to see the site open up ... Survivor Leagues are well under way, everyone starts to pipe in with their take on their favorite teams, value plays, sleeper picks ... ahhh football is definately in the air.

 

[Cecil Lammey]

Excellent!

Great Read, Thanks Bloom... maybe a VIDEO podcast next year??

This article needs more details on nittanylion's role.

You mention drug test info on Lendale White, what is that about?

I see some major differences between Joseph Addai and JJ Arrington, but that is for another thread.

Would Detroit have taken Justice if Philly hadn't jumped in front of them?

Gil Brandt love for the Bloom. Nice.

I actually thought the Gostkowski pick by the Pats was brilliant. He has a great opportunity replacing Vinatieri.

Im working on rankings, hoping to write them up tomorrow. Im getting slammed at work, so maybe ill miss that by one day, but they are definitely coming this week and will be the next article I churn out. Cecil and I are doing the postdraft podcast tonight, so that comes first.

Yep, we're told Bloom may change his name to Dieter and future podcasts could be titled Draft Sprockets.

Great work Bloom.

Was alcohol served at the draft this year? It wasn't in years past and I'm just curious if it was served this year.

nope. you had to be crafty to get toasted at the draft this year. suffice to say, there was plenty of alcohol outside in the line friday night.

That was a great read, Bloom!

From your comments it sounds like you liked Miami's picks, eventhough they didn't have a 2nd (CPepp) or 6th rd pick (Manny Wright).

 

[tommyGunZ]

Joe and David hit a home run with Bloom - he's been a heavyweight here for years. Great work.

Love the fact they cut the chili and gave out coupons. Funny stuff!!

Great writeup Bloom. It almost brought a tear to my eye. I've always wanted to attend the draft. This year two of my buds committed to it and I planned on joining them to complete the triumverate. However my son ended up having his Christening scheduled for Sunday the 30th and just like that, my draft weekend went up in smoke. I haven't even had a chance to call those guys and ask about the weekend but I can't help but feel like they were either waiting in line next to you or joining in on the Golic autograph session. It sounded like a truly great experience.

Thanks for the writeup.
