Previously the 1st round was 15 minutes while the 2nd was 10 minutes. Before they made it a 3 day affair, it wasn't uncommon for the 1st round to last 6+ hours and when combined with rounds 2 and 3, turned the first day of the draft into a 12 hour slog. Now it's 10 for the first and 7 for the 2nd.

What are the odds that they cut to commercial right when it is announced that our pick is in?

Yep. I don't think each round was 15 minutes. I don't see them adding time on the clock. I'm not seeing a reason for that. I'm open for reasons though.

Each team is allotted 10 minutes in the first round. 7 minutes in the 2nd. 5 in the 3rd - 6th and 4 minutes for the 7th round.

Just because a team makes their pick in their allotted 10 minutes doesn't mean the NFL immediately announces the pick. They hold off. Play the commercials. Interview prior draft selections. Allow the talking heads time to do their final assessments and prognostications. Look at the best players still available and the like. Then Roger comes out and announces the selection. Have you never seen the running clock for the next team is down to 8 or 7 minutes or even less? I've seen it around 5 minutes every once in a while.

They know Packers fans are watching in plentiful so it's treated as a tease. They know we'll watch through those stupid commercials! haha.

I love it when I take a solid stance on something and 48 hours I'm proven wrong.

It makes sense. I never trust the reliability of computers or internet providers or what have you. The IT department is another matter. Many of the IT techs do an amazing job and are under appreciated.

Edit- although I would love to see Minn screw up again and lose their draft pick slot.

I just read that the NFL held a mock draft today to see how smoothly their best laid plans were going to work.
They ran into a glitch with the first pick.
Great, just great, that should be fun to watch!!
Fan Shout
Martha Careful (2h) : 1. this is true of all our linemen. 2. His run block is fine. 3. If all OL played like he has, we would win SB.
beast (3h) : Meyers pass blocking is really good, his run blocking is really not.
Zero2Cool (19h) : Packers have claimed DE Spencer Waege off of waivers from the 49ers and waived DT Rodney Mathews.
Zero2Cool (20h) : And the OL protections seem to be good.
Zero2Cool (20h) : I really don't know lol. I don't see him getting blown up.
Zero2Cool (20h) : -3 buwahhhahaaha
Mucky Tundra (20h) : 4th
Zero2Cool (21h) : because he's 1st
Mucky Tundra (22h) : Myers isn't even the 3rd best C on the roster atm
Martha Careful (23h) : I am not sure I understand the Myers hate. He was consistently our third best lineman. RG and LT were worse.
beast (9-May) : Just saying I don't think moving Myers would help Myers.
beast (9-May) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.
Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then
Zero2Cool (8-May) : Context. Sounds like Myers won't be cross-trained. C or bust.
Mucky Tundra (8-May) : @BookOfEli_NFL Packers pass game coordinator, Jason Vrable said that Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks shared a placed in Florida while train
Mucky Tundra (8-May) : For now...
Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers go about evaluating their "best five," OL coach Luke Butkus makes on thing clear: "Josh Myers is our center."
beast (8-May) : Though I'm a bit surprised letting go of CBs, I thought we needed more not less
beast (8-May) : It was confusing with two DB Anthony Johnson anyways
Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers actually had Ray Lewis on the phone.
Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers wanted to draft Ray Lewis. Ravens stole him.
Martha Careful (6-May) : Happy 93rd Birthday to the Greatest Baseball Player of All-Time...Willie Mays
Zero2Cool (6-May) : Walter Stanely's son
buckeyepackfan (6-May) : and released CB Anthony Johnson and DL Deandre Johnson and waived/injured WR Thyrick Pitts (thigh-rick).
buckeyepackfan (6-May) : The Green Bay Packers have signed WR Julian Hicks, OL Lecitus Smith (luh-SEET-us) and WR Dimitri Stanley
Zero2Cool (6-May) : Petty, but it's annoying me how the NFL is making the schedule release an event.
Mucky Tundra (4-May) : @mattschneidman Matt LaFleur on how he tore his pec: “Got in a fight with the bench press. I lost.”
Zero2Cool (3-May) : Jordan Love CAN sign an extension as of today. Might tak weeks/months though
TheKanataThrilla (3-May) : Packers decline 5th year option for Stokes
Mucky Tundra (3-May) : @ProFootballTalk Jaylen Warren: Steelers' special teams coach has discussed Justin Fields returning kicks.
Zero2Cool (2-May) : Season officially ending tonight for Bucks ... sad face
Zero2Cool (2-May) : Giannis Antetokounmpo is listed as out for tonight's game.
dfosterf (2-May) : Surprisingly low initially is my guess cap wise, but gonna pay the piper after that
dfosterf (2-May) : The number on Love is going to be brutal.
Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)
Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!
earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage
beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position
dfosterf (1-May) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.
dfosterf (1-May) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.
Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl
Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.
dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left
dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : I miss having Sam Shields.
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Not that he's making excuses, just pointing it out
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : That's for dang sure. Make our erratic kicker have no excuse!
packerfanoutwest (28-Apr) : having a great long snapper is gold
Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : LaFleur looking like he had some weight. Coachin will do that lol
