I would disagree there even nondiehards will watch the beginging of the first round so once a name like Leinart, Bush, Young, or Williams starts falling people will continue to watch JUST to see where they go, and then the next big name starts falling DeAngelo, White, or Holmes one maybe slips into the 2nd round and then you have a few extra nondiehards who would have turned the channel still watching to see where they go. It is all a marketing ploy.

dude i watch both days. a little less so die hard as you get to round 6 and 7

i watch all of the first day and check in on the 2nd day to see who has been taken and i even watch about a hour or so of the 2nd day... it just gets really boring after about the 4th round

I watch EVERY SECOND, and I have my sleeper picks assigned, and my war room pumping. Although I haven't picked a successful sleeper pick since Gawd knows when, so I won't be making a carreer out of this.

for sure pick a guy over rated. from everything i have heard all the hype is based off his size and speed. really has nothing to do with his play

I am not a fan of Williams as a player, he had help on the other side, and alot of this praise is coming only because of his combine workout. I really didn't see any of his games so all I know of him is on paper and in Highlight reels, and I hate that.

Don't forget that he "finished strong" last year against teams like Wake Forest, Mid Tenn St, Maryland, and Southern Miss!
