You know, and I think that's what you're selling. And also the draft now, if you notice, is it's rotating all these cold weather cities. And I think that's been a great thing for actually the NFL. It's like, well, also they make more money off of it. So, of course, it's a great thing for them. But they have gone, oh, the Super Bowl gets the warm weather cities.

Well, how do we reward or bring this event to the fans? And I actually think that's been a good part of this. I know it's in Green Bay this year, which is kind of a pain in the ass for most people to get to. But I know being in Pittsburgh, Chicago, Kansas City, Detroit, Detroit, it was awesome last year. So I think that's a part of it, too, is that it's the fan event.

While the Super Bowl is the corporate event, the draft is truly the fan event. And I think that's why so many people get hyped up about it.

I would say the deepest position is running back. There might be double-digit running backs in the first two days that get selected. I looked it up. The record since the new millennium, since 2000, is 11 in the top three rounds. I think the all-time record since the mid-90s is like 15 or 14, which tells you it's a different age group.

But I think that the running back is the deepest class with Ashton Gentry, too, on top. And there might be two or three running backs selected in the first. But edge is another spot and not just edge. D-line in general is pretty good, pretty deep at the top and into the second day.

And actually, the position that I think has been kind of overlooked a little bit is that there's some depth that offense aligned. There might not be the really, really great guys at the top of the draft, but there's a lot of players, I would say, late first, early second, that it's a little... juicier than you'd expect than I think it's been kind of made out to be.

And then tight end is another position that has talent at the top and on day two. Some interesting guys there, like real tight ends too, not the Mike Kosicki types. I know I'm giving a shout out to Dolphins fans here.

The one I've gone with for him as a receiver is Chad Ochocinco, Chad Johnson. Chad was a much better route runner, became a very polished route runner. But as far as body type and skills and ball skills and everything like that, they're one to one, really, to me. Travis might be a little more explosive, but... Odell Beckham is another comparison I've heard with him. But that body type, twitchy.
