GOTTA LOVE ME SOME PRIMETIME NFL DRAFT

As everybody knows, the NFL re-formatted its' draft this year to capitalize on making more money.  So instead of the draft being a two-day affair (Saturday and Sunday), it is now a three-day affair.  The first round has its' own day (last night), the second and third round share Friday, and rounds four through seven are regulated to Saturday.  Now that I'm done with that history lesson, let's talk about the actual draft.  Better yet, let's see athletes talk about the actual draft.

Former NFL Linebacker Bill Romanowski tweeted:

Happy Draft Day everyone!

Thanks Bill!  But, he did provide his insight to the Raiders' newest addition, Rolando McClain (damn Oakland and taking away McClain from my G-Men!)

Great pick! RT @408RAIDER: @billromanowski ur thoughts on our new LB

Not much to dislike about McClain, an absolute stud of a linebacker.

I learned at a young age in my professional career that whenever you want a soundbyte about anything- literally anything- that Darnell Dockett and Chad Ochocinco are really the only two people that matter.  So, just to recap Darnell Dockett's views on the night:

As much as I hate U of F I'd take TIM TEBOW sam bradford and Mc coy both fragile is hell they both took hits and folded like a lawn chair!!

Okay- well he has to face Sam Bradford twice a year, so nice to see him show so much respect to his opponent.

RT @reggie_bush: Excited for the draft. Who do you guys think we are gonna pick?<--yall don't need anything yall should give us ur pick!!

Showing some humility- very respectable.

"FRESH MEAT" "FRESH MEAT" "FRESH MEAT" "FRESH MEAT" "FRESH MEAT" "FRESH MEAT" "FRESH MEAT" "FRESH MEAT" "FRESH MEAT" "FRESH MEAT"

Self-explanatory.

AWWWWWWW SH*T! DAN WILLIAMS #BIRDGANG. ITS A CELEBRATION,,, NOW I GOT TO TRAIN THE DOG and we shall GO BITE! Can't wait to rooke Night ;-)

Just talked to DAN our 26th pic, and he sounded like he's ready to DO BIG THINGS! I told him we welcome him And enjoy today. Let's 3peat!

Is it me, or does anybody else see Darnell Dockett being a great pledge master for a fraternity if this whole football thing doesn't work out?

As I said, Ochocinco would make an appearance.

I am super stoked about our new tightend we picked up. Now time to get him on that McDonalds diet so we can all be great this year

This seems to be a fairly normal post out of Ocho- though I don't know if McDonald's paid him to mention their diet. Also, I didn't know McDonald's had a diet.

Former Giants great Michael Strahan offered his fatherly advice:

For the draftees remember its just the beginning. Getting drafted doesn't mean you've made it... Now the real work and challenge starts!!

Also, remember to put aside money to hire a really good dentist (And that's a burn).

So, in the words of the great Quentin Groves:

What u guys think of the draft???
