The 2022 NFL Draft concluded this past weekend. For some teams, the narrative of "wait until next year" may changed to "win now or else". How did your favorite Club come out of the Draft?
I don't really know much about college football, but our main weakness last season was the defence and we addressed that in our first few rounds. The trades seemed strange as we helped the Packers and lions get a wide receiver each, but people are saying they would have traded up for the players in question either way so we might as well be the team to benefit, though perhaps we gave away our number 12 pick a bit too cheaply. Also tomorrow the international fixtures are announced. Hearing rumours of the Vikings at the Saints, but I don't want to get my hopes up.
So what's everyone's view on the international fixtures announced? As a Vikings fan, I'm thrilled they're coming over if I can get tickets (no longer a foregone conclusion despite being a Wembley season ticket holder for years) and it means one reason to not kill myself until October at least
International games have generally been well received by the players, many of whom never left the States until then. As a fan, it is odd to watch an NFL game so early in the morning, generally the same time of day as soccer matches are broadcast here. One each in Mexico and Germany this year, with two games at Tottenham's stadium. Next season maybe they can have one is Australia...in an AFL ground.
Week 1 concludes Monday night. My NY Jets are off to a rough start but look like they have the tools to ascend in coming years.
The most incomprehensive comeback win over the Cleveland Browns for my Jets. The parts are there to have a decent season.
