Me? I finally got NFL Network about 2 months ago, and I'm going to tune in to their coverage to see how good it is.

I am tired of ESPN focusing on a few teams, and forgetting 28 other teams are drafting as well. On top of that, I am tired of the interviews and whatnot un-related to the draft that take away from seeing who is actually drafted.

I am hoping NFLN simply gives you info on each player drafted, and cuts out some of the crap ESPN brings.

The NFL and Time Warner still think they are above each other so until that changes I am stuck with ESPN.

I have NFLN on and flip to ESPN on commercials only...Mayock is 10 times better than Kiper in terms of analysis and accuracy of projections. Just better overall coverage by NFLN. Kiper acts like a know it all and has a big ego but then gets nothing right and criticizes teams when they don't follow his chart as far as the ranking of a player.

NFL Network is real good with their coverage. I usually flip back and forth, but I went to the draft last year and I am pretty sure Im going this year too.

I thought NFLN's was way better last year and there should be no contest this year as they're going to have it broadcast in HD.

A draft day without Berman just wouldnt be the same. Although i dont have much choice, my cable provider wont carry NFL network.

AFN only shows ESPNs coverage, although I really wish they would show NFLN. Kiper is a turtle cage.

For the most part we turn down the volume for the most part and discuss the picks myself between myself and my friends.

You mean ESPN is going to interrupt it's ongoing worship of LeBron James to show the NFL draft?

ESPN has gone the way of MTV....lots of noise, little substance.
