I hope that sure thing is around 5-6 so draft day is worth it, otherwise I would watch only first 10 picks and go pickup the sure thing :D

Is it possible that some team with a low first round or high second round.. cough cough(#32) is creating and spreading the rumor that Maker is 23 to make him fall out of the lottery and into a position that they can take him?

Don't think Maker was ever projected to go in the lottery. Most mock drafts and experts have him going late first round or early second.

He was on Chad Fords big board before this came out at 18 which is just below the lottery. Regardless i was just asking if its possibly a ploy by a front office to lower his value tonight.

with Maker's range rumored to be the widest -- anywhere from late lottery to early in the second.

So is 4pm PST the pre-draft show? Or when the first pick is made?
