What are the cliches we should be listening for come draft day?


"He was the highest rated guy on our board."


"I just wanted to go to a team that wanted me."


"This is the point in the draft where might see a team trade up."


"He's a guy you plug in and play on day one."
Jaguars are on the clock, time for a two minute commercial break.

Am I doing it right?
"Value pick". Truly stupid.

BAP. Antiquated
Best _____ I have ever seen.

 

I haven't seen a workout like that in ___________ years of watching.

 

He's the most pro ready QB in the draft.

 

He's the next Lawrence Taylor.

 

And the #1 DRAFT DAY CLICHE........................

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

He would fit right in with a team like the Jaguars who desperately need a ___________. He would be a good player and sell tickets. 

^^^^

 

I've heard Daniel Jerimiah/Charles David use that line like 500 times this month. 

That is a bit of a reach.

They are clearly going for need with this pick. 

I don't really understand this pick?

There were clearly better players on their/my board.

This guy is a play maker!

He is probably the best athlete in the draft!

He could have used another year in college. 

This is one guy  that they didn't have a need for but clearly could not pass up. 

I look forward to going to ______ and winning some championships!

I am going to be humble and work hard and try to be a valuable member of the team. 

I had a strong feeling they would pick me when I talked to the coaching staff on my visit. 

I had no idea they would draft me, Gene Smith didn't even bring me in for a visit. 

That guy doesn't play in the SEC.

I would have picked that guy.  I know what I'm talking about, I read a message board.

 

I guess those are just Jags Messageboard people.

He's got a high motor.

Low floor, high ceiling.

He brings his lunch bucket.

That's a blue chipper.

He's a developmental guy.

He'll be a positive force in the locker room.

 

#33

He's a shutdown corner.

Thrown around way too often
I have one from this board..

 

"QB Purgatory"

" Punters are people too "

Yes, shutdown corner is thrown around way too much. Every corner is a shut down corner in the draft. 

If you draft this guy, you have a starter for the next decade.

" A bit of a strech at this point in the Darft, but the more I think about it, the more I can see that he could will fill a need that ( insert team )............................................ "

 

Translation:  What the @#$*() were they thinking, this guy has a UDFA smell all over him and I got to fill 44sec more air time.....Jeeeeeeeze.

 

HeadSlap

"He's a freak athlete!"

 

-Said about every other player that gets drafted.

Quote:Jaguars are on the clock, time for a two minute commercial break.

Am I doing it right?
 

They may not go to commercial break until the final minute now. Jags are getting famous.
I read most of in my head in Mike Mayocks voice  :turned:

He has pretty much become a cliche.
This guy is a football player.
I don't know, but last year the term "across his face" kept being used when breaking down game film.  That was a new one on me, and I was not really sure why they kept saying it.
