Which is it? And that wondercabbage dude is FOS; you can't have two different sheets online at the start of the draft and claim integrity. FAIL!

I just think they should have more results. Anyone could have properly picked the top 4. So if you are only going to get 4 more correct the entire draft, that isn't very impressive. Someone sitting on a blog and looking up a few needs of teams to get more correct than someone that I would imagine has more resources is pathetic. Especially considering the attention that ESPN gives the draft. They aren't even close on the outcome, plus the analysis by Steve Young and Herm was horrible.

I'm not saying they should be paid strictly by nailing the picks. I just want more accuracy.And probably more than half of their checks, as spencer and others have said, comes from how many pageviews and "good TV" antics (ie. screaming at each other about who should go No. 1) they can conjure.

I understand variables throw things off, but there weren't many variables before the Raiders. Shouldn't they have good enough sources to know that might happen, and if they did get that right, they would have been in better shape to predict the rest (like even though Crabtree was the best available, he probably wasn't going to a team before SF because of the need).I can guess at who I think are the best players, and where they might land.
