ChileBear Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 What's a guesstimate on when the Bears will make their pick tomorrow? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DABEARSDABOMB Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 Its kind of weird. But with the lockout looming and there being so little "real" NFL news I haven't paid much attention to thinks. Completely forgot the draft starts up tomorrow.

Ed Hochuli 3:16 Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 If my math is right, 28 picks taking 10 minutes each (the full allowed time) would take 280 minutes, which is about 4.4 hours, so almost 11:00 CT? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madlithuanian Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 Seems about right. I looked on direct tv, and it scheduled to go through 8:30 pacific time. If my math is right, 28 picks taking 10 minutes each (the full allowed time) would take 280 minutes, which is about 4.4 hours, so almost 11:00 CT?

dawhizz Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 My money says their first pick doesn't come until Friday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockren Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 My money says their first pick doesn't come until Friday. I believe that's what the Bears are hoping....I'm hoping one of the big Ts they like so much inexplicably falls to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DABEARSDABOMB Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 How does it work? Does the entire first round not occur today? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madlithuanian Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 I think it does... But I'm not 100%. I saw on the tv schedule that it goes from 5-8:30 pacific time. For 32 picks at 10 minutes per pick, that's 320 minutes.. 5.3 hours... So I wonder if it will be shortened somehow... http://www.nfl.com/draft/2011 How does it work?

Bears4Ever_34 Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 Didn't the first round time to pick used to be 15 minutes? Or has it always been 10? I can't remember. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madlithuanian Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 I can't recall. All I know is I liked it when it was over the weekend. I could grill and make a day of it vs. rushing home through commuter traffic to swill a beer before it's over... Didn't the first round time to pick used to be 15 minutes? Or has it always been 10?

It was much better when they did it Saturday and Sunday.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
