In the interests of fairness, this was discussed last year and to be honest, I think it's a good idea. It takes away the suspense when you know who's going where.

I like that they aren't giving away who got picked before it's announced. It was more fun to watch when you didn't know who was going where

I like that Idea. Watching the guys on the phone knowing they are picked and 2 minutes left to go on the clock was kinda lame.

I am just not a fan of watching some guy all pimped out talk on the phone for 10 minutes... maybe it is just me.

I can watch my wife talk on the phone all day.

Yeah I actually like the suspense, too. But I'm not about to give butt hole the credit. I'm sure he had a lot of people tell him it would be a good idea, and the one thing you can count on with him, is that he'll do what he thinks is good for ratings.

Probably one of the better things Goodell has imposed IMO.. The Drafts were MUCH better to watch when you didn't watch some kid on the phone 10 mins during the up-coming team picking, seeing him smile, knowing he's picked already and then have to watch his family celebrate, dress him down and show up... It like watching a 3 day long reality show .. a really bad one.
