Whose Draft Coverage Will You Watch This Year?

BlueVinnie : 4/16/2019 3:11 pm
I've always been an NFL Network guy since they started broadcasting the draft. I really liked Mayock's analyses and I'm also a fan of Rich Eisen. With Mayock gone, not sure which network I'll be watching. It sounds like Nfl will have Daniel Jeremiah, Joel Klatt and Bucky Brooks.

I haven't watched ESPN's coverage in years but Kiper and McShay might be more informative than the NFL network trio.
Maybe just me

but I thought ESPN has been better the last couple of years than NFLN.
No one’s.

ESPN

They seem to give more information and highlights of the players.
I usually watch the ESPN coverage

It's more neurotic compared to the NFLN, but the latter often doesn't keep up with the pace of the picks.
I'll get the picks  
Gman11 : 4/16/2019 3:17 pm : link
on my app. I don't care who the other teams pick.
Neither

BBI, Twitter, and other online resources are fine.

...I have 'listened' to NFLN and Mayock forever, with him gone I'll tryout both audio feeds to see which I prefer.
I love and watch the entire first round  
superspynyg : 4/16/2019 3:20 pm : link
Of the draft. A few buddies come over and we gets wings and beer. This will be the first year in my new basement with my 75 inch tv. Sam Adams summer ale on tap.

I prefer NFL network but will switch to ESPN a few times.
I always DVR them  
Anakim : 4/16/2019 3:21 pm : link
ABC is now doing one, so I'll be DVRing ABC, ESPN and NFL Network.

That being said, it'll be interesting to see NFLN's coverage without Mayock.
The Bleacher Report is promising to have really good coverage  
Brown Recluse : 4/16/2019 3:22 pm : link
of the draft and focusing on each draft pick thats made when its made, instead of talking about Kyler Murray the whole night which is probably what you'll get from ESPN and NFLN.

They are brutal when it comes to the Giants though lol. I try to listen to the Stick to Football podcast sometimes and can't get through one episode without Matt Miller and Connor Rogers shitting on Gettleman for something. Agree or disagree with that what the team is doing, I don't need to be beaten over the head with it.

Anyway, I will probably tune into them on draft night.

I think the College Gameday crew. Rece Davis, Kirk Herbstreit, Lee Corso, Desmond Howard and David Pollack.
You know what?

That sounds terrific to me. I will absolutely give them a try

I'll be too busy watching Avengers: Endgame. Probably just check BBI during the credits while I wait for the mid and post credits scenes.
I will catching it on my phone

Same here. Love to watch the draft. Have some guys that come over and watch as well. Great time last year when Barkley was picked!!
I haven't watched the draft on the TV  
Ryan in Albany : 4/16/2019 4:31 pm : link
since the days of Sat/Sun.

I get the picks on BBI.
ESPN

isn't one of the big 3  
Vegas Steve : 4/16/2019 5:39 pm : link
major networks covering it as well? ABC I think

If they are I will check them out. The NFL network without Mike M. is a waste of time.

Yep, ABC, I believe Robin Roberts will be hosting, might tune in as well to see how she does.
I’ll switch between ESPN and ABC.

No to NFL Network without Mayock.
For one reason or another  
jhibb : 4/16/2019 9:12 pm : link
I haven't watched much at all in a few years. Do they still talk about possible players for an upcoming pick and then right before the pick, start talking about another possibility out of the blue, pretending they didn't hear that he was the pick before it was announced?
BBI  
TJ : 4/17/2019 2:31 am : link
I haven't watched since they stretched to 3 days.
