Draft day rumors
I could spend all day long posting a different thread for each bit of info I’m hearing, but I figure you fine folks don’t have time for that this afternoon, so we’re going to keep it all locked in right here. I’ll be chatting live on the FanSided.com LIVE Blog all afternoon as well, so be sure stay in their as well.
Oh yeah… just in case you haven’t checked it out yet, we’ve finally made the move to Twitter, so be sure to check us out over there if you get a chance. We’ll be posting every pick as well as all the news we hear (or see), and that gives you the fan the best chance at staying up to date through all of today’s madness.
