As far as the draft itself, it usually marks the end of us winning the offseason LOL. Post draft though we do indeed hit the doldrums but at least we get the NBA playoffs through May and then the US Open in golf in June and the British Open in July to tide me over till the HOF Game in Aug.

Who actually trusts Baalke? Not me, Plus he is bringing in an old crony as Asst GM after the draft so it looks like we are stuck with him for some time to come. Ah well, the drama that is the Jags FO will continue. 

Still, exciting times ahead.

Thanks a lot.  Often times, like here, I just ask questions.  I like hearing what people think.  I like knowing if I'm the only one thinking the things I am thinking.  My thoughts were beginning to drive me crazy going back and forth between premature excitement and premature resignation...between optimism and pessimism.  I can't recall feeling quite like this pre draft before.

The NBA playoffs used to do it for me, but over the years, I lost interest in Basketball for some reason.  I hate golf, and if it's on my television, I am napping hard.

I have limited Baalke trust.  I feel I can trust him some to draft front 7 defenders, and to a lesser extent quality offensive linemen.  I do NOT trust him wo find a quality WR.  Kirk is a good slot guy, provided they find someone outside.  I don't think he can carry a WR corps, if that makes any sense.  But even in the limited extent I DO trust him, It
s still not a complete trust even in those areas.  I don't want Walker, and I still am not sure if Baalke will pass on him.  To me, Walker shouldn't even be in the discussion of best player in the draft.

I honestly enjoy watching it online and seeing live grades starting on day 2 and then the rest of the weekend as that's where teams usually land eventual household names or starters.

If the Jaguars pull off a [BLEEP] trade down though? I would be interested and glued to the TV.

Is there a place online you watch?

I remember someone posting a place online with live reactions and analysis of the draft, but I'll be damned if I remember what it was.  Chatsports, maybe?

No. Not really. I have a 7 day work week up coming up so I'll pretty much be confined to my office space during the work week and then my little office room at home over next weekend during the draft. I have Hulu so I can stream anywhere really with a laptop or link it up to a TV nearby via HDMI and watch it that way. 

I'll bounce back and forth between ESPN and NFLNetwork and live grading wise I tend to pop in on drafttek.com and walterfootball.com.
