    ESPN, but then again, I enjoy listening on the radio more than watching the coverage which repeats itself constantly.

    I'd prefer to avoid Kiper pimping Jimmy Clausen all evening on Thursday but I like reading his "Kipers best player still left on the board" crawl.

    NFLN. There simply is no reason to watch ESPN for NFL needs these days. NFLN does an excellent job, and their analysis and insight is usually of higher quality than that found on ESPN. Mike Mayock and Charlie Casserly are a gold mine.

    I'm also fed up with ESPN as it relates to Chris Berman's conduct during the draft. How many times is going to slip in a stupid comment or even reveal the name of the player that was just drafted as the commish makes his way to the podium? I'm sick of that, and of Berman in general.

    Yeah I kinda can't stand ESPN anymore due to the fact it seems to cater big names. LAst year I went back and forth.

    I would have watched on ESPN mostly, but since I will be at work thanks to this prime time BS I will have to settle for internet updates.

    Even if I was home it would be ESPN since Time Warner and NFL cant work out anything to get the damn network shown.

    They should have held it Fri-Sat-Sun.

    NFLN does streaming, I'd see no reason why they wouldn't also stream their draft coverages as well.

    This yr, with all of the late round picks, for me, Sat has more entertainment value than Thursday's 1 pick first rd.

    Really? It's 4.99 a month, and you get like 12 sports channels. That's one less trip to Taco Bell or McDonalds. I don't get denying yourself NFLN over 5 bucks.

    It use to be NFLN but this year it's going to be ESPN, only due to not having NFLN.

    I'll probably do some back 'n forth between the two, but will stick mainly with NFLN. IMO Mayock is a better player analyst than Kiper.

    Im debating it lol, but obviously that kind of thing is frowned upon. I will be taking my break/lunch when the fins are up though. Probably to hear them announce after 10 minutes that they will picking 10 spots or so later heh. :wink2:

    Im just irked at this move. Draft weekend has been a favorite of mine for a long time. I got sick one year as a kid and it was the only thing on. Watched it ever since just chilling and having a lazy weekend with April football. :up:

    NFL Network - have gotten so I can't stand Berman and hate that the give away so many of the picks before they are announced. I like Kiper, but get somewhat tired of all the hype the other guys give Kiper, especially Trey Wingo if he is doing the last day.

    I really like Eisen - met him one time at a charity golf tourney when he worked for ESPN and he came across as a normal guy. Mayock is just as good if not better than Kiper.

    One thing that could swing things toward ESPN this year though is Jon Gruden. He was awesome last year for NFL Network and I'm sure he'll do a good job for ESPN this year.

    Mayock is much better. I think people who watch ESPN do it because they were the first to show it and they are just used to it. Now ESPN is more of a show for the sportscasters then a show for the event. I'll watch NFLN this year. Probably tune in to ESPN during NFLN commercials.
