ESPN Draft Coverage is Abysmal

[Panthers128]

First let me say I do not get the NFL Network (Time Warner Cable). This coverage is embarrassing and disrespectful to the players being drafted. Not sure why they have chosen to cover it this way. Basically they run their mouths about a topic anywhere from 15-30 minutes while completely ignoring players being drafted then they show a list of everything the viewer missed....

Not to sound surprised though, I've gotten used to this sort of thing from ESPN. It seems as though they care less about sports and more about showcasing their mediocre sports analysts.

To be fair I suppose it's difficult to cover 150+ players who are for the most part relatively unknown, but this isn't interesting at all and I'm turning it off.

Yea, I was in that situation for a long time, no NFLN available. Sucks.

when the panthers' 3rd rounder came up last week they were jabbering about the cowboys draft moves, and completely skipped over the former panther being introduced as well as the pick.

and who got tired of seeing sean peyton's stupid ass talking for 10-minute increments while other teams' picks were skipped?

i was pissed for hours.

i hope you know that been up the past two days right? http://www.nfl.com/live

That is what I been watching. ESPN can go kick rocks.

I switched from Directv to North State Plex (basically it's ATT Uverse). NFL isn't available until July but I was willing to go ahead and switch thinking that missing NFLN for a few months wouldn't matter much until then. Boy was I wrong. ESPN draft coverage has been a disaster for me. Come on July!!

PS the 30/30 internet kicks ass though.

McShay and Kiper = tools.

Chris Berman = annoying as balls after two minutes.

Trent Dilfer = a talking head

Trey Wingo = the only person I can tolerate for more than 3 minutes

Mort & Scheft = lol

If you don't have NFLN, you can watch it at the link above. Way better than ESPN.
