Has a team leaked the news yet of Trubisky's leprosy diagnosis?

Has a team leaked the news yet of Trubisky's leprosy diagnosis?

You don't leak that kind of news - you shed it.

 

[Faust]

49ers general manager John Lynch has been saying the team is "open for business" to trade down from the No. 2 pick for weeks. With the strong likelihood that the Cleveland Browns will take Texas A&M pass rusher Myles Garrett with the No. 1 pick, that business is picking up. The Niners will likely keep looking for the right deal all the way until they are on the clock.

Nice sweater puppies on the red carpet announcer on NFLN.

Do we know if FBG is doing a youtube hangout like usual?

NVM just went up

NFL Draft rumors: Live news updates leading up to Round 1

Trivia:  What NFL team only made 3 first round selections over a 22 year span?

Extra credit:  2 of the 3 selections are now Hall of Famers.  Who are they?

Putting no research into it at all, I'll say the George Allen Redskins.  That guy was allergic to draft picks.

Since I'm not confident I'm right, guessing the players would be a reach...  Darryl Green one of them?

Has to be the Redskins, right?

 

[GregR]

Yep, Redskins.  Allen and Bobby Beathard as GM for most of the stretch, from 69-90.  Darryl Green is one.  The other went in the same year as Green.

I was thinking along the same line. Was one of the Hogs a first rounder and HOFer

Not a Hog.

 

[GregR]

Of the 3 players they took in the first in that stretch, the one who didn't make the HoF is Mark May.

 

[ShamrockPride]

And the night just got ruined for a few minutes bringing up Chris Berman. Thanks Trey.

 

[Arodin]

Yep, Redskins.  Allen and Bobby Beathard as GM for most of the stretch, from 69-90.  Darryl Green is one.  The other went in the same year as Green.

Don't recall another 1st rounder in Green's year so I'm stumped on this one...

Art Monk, but he went in 80.  Green went in 83

 

[krsone21]

No Chris Berman on ESPN this year, this will be different in a good way. 

 

[ShamrockPride]

I feel like I'm the only person who likes Goodell.

 

[GregR]

Don't recall another 1st rounder in Green's year so I'm stumped on this one...

I meant Green and this other Redskins went into the HoF in the same year... not drafted in the same year.

 

[need2know]

I know you like the tight end

 

[Mister CIA]

I'm thinking surely Art Monk was not a first rounder, and surely Theisman is not a Hall of Famer. Maybe somebody who went to another team and had a great career.

 

[GregR]

Can't believe the Philly crowd didn't bring snowballs to pelt Goodell with...

 

[Getinthemix]

Art Monk, but he went in 80.  Green went in 83

 

[bueno]

Riggins in the hof?

 

[Evilgrin 72]

Kiper needs some plugs. All this talk about his hair over the years.... it must have gotten tired of being the center of attention. 

I don't know that anyone boos quite like Philly fans. 

 

[GregR]

Yep, Monk.  They both were inducted in 2008.

 

[Bojang0301]

Philly got to Goodell... couldn't happen to a bigger #####.

 

[Mister CIA]

Riggins in the hof?

Jets Jets Jets drafted him.

 

[ShamrockPride]

Can't believe the Philly crowd didn't bring snowballs to pelt Goodell with...

I mean to be fair at this point it's Iggles fans only claim to fame

 

[Arodin]

Philly got to Goodell... couldn't happen to a bigger #####.

Actually, for all the justified criticism, Goodell seems to handle the public scorn and booing as smoothly and gracefully as anyone could hope for...

 

[Bojang0301]

I feel like I'm the only person who likes Goodell.

Plus his mom, good work.

 

[hagmania]

The Miz getting love on ESPN coverage.

Usually he stonewalls it. He acknowledged them and had scorn on his face... #smallvictories

 

[3nOut]

Is Cleveland rally going to milk the clock at #1? Would be hilarious if time runs out.

 

[Old Smiley]

Flack catchers gonna catch flack.

 

[ShamrockPride]

They have absolutely no clue who they're going with right now. Guarantee it's total chaos back there right now.

 

[Quez]

Gruden looks like he is botoxing

 

[shader]

How can Cleveland blow this?

 

[Grigs Allmoon]

They have absolutely no clue who they're going with right now. Guarantee it's total chaos back there right now.

With that chaos, the card will probably say Miles Trubiski once the clock gets to 3 seconds.

 

[ShamrockPride]

How can Cleveland blow this?

Wait for it...

 

[Evilgrin 72]

God, I hope the Browns draft Garrett and he sucks. 

 

[Arodin]

How can Cleveland blow this?

With the 1st pick of the 2017 NFL draft, the Cleveland Browns select...Davis Webb, quarterback.

 

[-OZ-]

Well that was exciting

 

[Evilgrin 72]

Garrett is going to suck in the NFL. Calling it now. 

 

[Tool]

With the 1st pick of the 2017 NFL draft, the Cleveland Browns select...Davis Webb, quarterback.

Heard they've also got Ty Webb high on their board.

 

[Getinthemix]

Garrett is going to suck in the NFL. Calling it now. 

I agree with this.  Cleveland curse and mediocre effort

 

[ShamrockPride]

Loves Dinosaurs   Why couldn't Miami get this guy with William Hayes? 

 

[Evilgrin 72]

Heard they've also got Ty Webb high on their board.

Of course. He has a pool AND a pond. 

 

[bueno]

Adams or Lattimore?

 

[hagmania]

Sitting between an older gentleman that is asking why Roger Goodell is being booed and a middle-aged Browns fan who claims Myles Garrett isn't any good.
