The Garments of the 2024 NFL Draft


This 12 months, the draft moved to Detroit. After a very long time doing it in New York Metropolis yearly, the NFL has been transferring it via completely different soccer cities, which I feel is GREAT for followers — one of many few instances the NFL places them first! — however which I feel has decreased participant attendance, as a result of it isn’t an attractive weekend in Manhattan. (I additionally assume lots of them would reasonably danger getting handed up once they’re in their very own residing rooms, though they nonetheless have full digicam crews so it’s not such as you’re in privateness.) And this 12 months, nearly all of them wore black, so we didn’t even get the ZANINESS that we’ve come to count on.

Middle Joe Alt at No. 5 to the Chargers (go Irish!) was the primary gentle swerve of the night, however the commentators weren’t flabbergasted till Atlanta took Washington QB Michael Penix Jr. with the eighth decide. The Falcons simply acquired veteran Kirk Cousins from Minnesota, and perhaps they assume he’ll do the entire Nurturing Veteran factor for Penix. Or, perhaps he’ll experience the pine: Penix is mad proficient. The one cause this shocked anybody is Ye Olde Durabilitye Considerations, although Penix addressed that curiously in an open letter to NFL groups. Apparently it labored!

Sadly for us all, the quarterback no person thought would go in Spherical One — and he didn’t, and that’s applicable, however it means he subsequently was by no means going to make the journey — is my very own beloved 35-year-old 24-year-old, Sam Hartman. And should you don’t know what I imply by that description, you’ll should you have a look at this:

Facet observe: Our coach is so good-looking. Anyway, Sam, on the best, performed for an eternity at Wake Forest (Covid-disrupted) after which transferred to Notre Dame for his closing 12 months to flesh out his talent set, within the hopes of getting an NFL profession. And the ND soccer Instagram account spent all season being SO sexy for him:

And let’s not neglect the stirring nonetheless photographs. I imply, COME ON. The warmth is actual. (Apparently it additionally disproportionately aggravated the Wake Forest coach, who was principally like, “SHUT UP, WE LOVED HIM FIRST.”) Then the NFL acquired in on that motion on the mix. Sorry to hijack this put up to be about Sam, however… I’m not sorry as a result of these are necessary cultural discussions. I’m so unhappy we didn’t get to see Sammy in a baller go well with, however hopefully I’ll get him in some extra tight pants subsequent 12 months, and with a workforce I truly like. AHEM, Pittsburgh Steelers.

Now have a look at these high quality gents who simply grew to become very rich! I want them properly except they play for my rivals! Wherein case I want them stubbed toes and fumble fingers!
