Even though a few have already taken, especially the "race up to the podium" crap, my list is never ending. I fuckin hate draft jargon with a passion.
Reach
Value
Steal
Smoke screen
Falling in love with...
Drooling over...
Potential (no shit all players have the potential)
I really like this kid
He would've been a 1st or 2nd rounder if....
Once in a generation/decade player
Taking a flyer on....
Adjusting board
Big board
Kick the tires
Project pick
Any time arm length is mentioned
And technically this isn't a phrase/lingo...but the arbitrary school grades SECONDS AFTER the fuckin pick is made.
Then post draft shit...
Raising eyebrows
Turning heads
Flying around the field (might have some other problems if this is the case)
