1560 is doing their draft show from there.

What channel is the better of the two for draft watch between NFLN and ESPN?

I splurged before football season with the 200 channel package (I dont watch much TV and cheap when it comes to my cable/dish) on my dish so I actually have NFLN for the draft now.

NFLn is better IMO. Kiper can get real old.

I don't think that ESPN does the 2nd day, only the 1st. Therefore, I will skip between the two on day 1 simply so I don't have to listen to one group of people for an extended period of time. It also depends on if Mayock has the ability to discuss the player being drafted and who might be a good pick for the next team (i.e. keep focused on what's happening) or if the staff wanders off onto gossip and philosophy or whatever. I remember a couple of years ago when Mayock and Schefter got into a little pissing contest when Moss got traded. While somewhat entertaining, it wasn't why I tuned in.

Day two is usually on ESPN2. I really like watching the draft, not sure why, but it is like the anticipation of who is going where and who we might choose.

I doubt I can be there on Day 1 (depends on start time for work that day) but if there's a gathering at Nick's on day 2 I can make it.

Just off Gessner, got it. I live a few blocks away, so I might be inclined to hang out.
