Draft Day is an Extremely Stupid Movie

  • Draft Day, released in 2014, was a film that told the story of the general manager of the Cleveland Browns and the decisions he would make on the day of the 2014 NFL Draft. This film is not based on actual events, and it never would be. This is because the various actions and decisions our protagonist makes would never happen in real life. And if it did, he’d immediately be fired.

      I agree. I thought this film was stupid but some people like it. I noticed Rich Eisen brings it up and forgot he is in the movie. Anyone in the NFL in this film says nice things about it. LOL As for the draft trading this is the NFL and during the draft all these NFL Teams act like Teenager's playing in a local Fantasy Football League making wild trades. NFL Teams covet First Rd Draft Picks. Trading your 6th pick for 3 2's is dumb and trading 3 first rd picks for the 6th pick is dumber. Both the Jags and Seattle GM would be fired. Look at all the heat the Falcon's front office is taking for signing Kirk Cousins to an over priced FA contract and taking Penix at #8 right now. These trades in the film were manipulated so as to create drama and in the end make Costner's character look brilliant. I doubt the XFL would make these kind of trades. I compare the dumb College Basketball film Blue Chips as comparison. I live in Indiana where Blue Chips was filmed. Nick Nolte basically is trying to play Bobby Knight. What's amusing is when Blue Chips came out in 1994 the local media was all about promoting the film. After it came out no one was willing to admit it was stupid.

Seattle didn't call because Jax didn't need a QB so they thought they would just get Callahan at #7 without needing to trade. I hate to defend this movie because it is kind of corny. But there is a reason he traded up to #1, why we was able to get #6 from Jax, and why Seattle took the trade to #6 to get their franchise QB.

    Here's three reasons I never bought the $100 in playbook scenario:
    1) They act like these college players don't talk to each other. How many years would they try this trick before it's common knowledge? One group text ruins the whole thing.
    2) I assume they don't really put the $100 on the last page. If it's an actual playbook, it's a binder with hundreds of plays. Even if a player looks at the binder for two minutes, they're going to look at the first few pages and then flip to the end of the book. The $100 should be tucked in between the halfway point and 3/4.
    3) If you're a top 10 prospect, and you're sent 5 to 10 playbooks by different teams you're not going to read 10 playbooks cover to cover. Why? That's what training camp with your teammates/coaches is for.
    Yes, I've put more thought into this playbook than the writers did in all the trade scenarios at the end of the movie.

    Love the movie and while I feel in your sarcasm you misrepresent a few things.... for example, winning and losing is always a thing, but more importantly the owner wanted to make a splash. I've no doubt that similar scenarios have played out in the NFL where an owner steps in with a specific demand, I suspect it's actually fairly common. The biggest criticism seems to be the terms of the 2 trades and I agree, the trade with the seahawks especially is insane... the first trade was with a new GM if I recall correctly and it's not that crazy to think a new GM could drop the ball that badly, still in both cases yes, not realistic at all but then again this is a movie and much like a WWE match, we all suspend disbelief for the entertainment value. While I think if you are watching the movie for a documentary on draft day you will be disappointed, if you watch it for it's entertainment value and some interesting interactions between Owner/GM, GM/coach, GM/player and the general excitement that surrounds the draft every year, well you might just find you enjoy it.

    Main character who we are supposed to believe is a genius panics hard, gets made a fool of by his peers/competitors, and makes a mess for his team.
    His co-workers call him out for his stupidity and he tells them to shut up and trust him to do his job.
    Main character somehow totally redeems himself because his peer unexpectedly panics even harder to draft a QB they are not crazy about.
    Draft haul is sketchy as regards turning team into immediate contender, largely dependent on whether the QB they already have can drastically improve performance in coming season.
    I expect main character got fired at season's end.

      Yeah Sonny as a character is really confusing. In real life the GMs that pay 3 first rounders like this are ridiculed hard and at best are labeled as the biggest black marks of their careers if they're not seen as an outright joke but this movie wants us to believe he's playing 4D chess. Then again he wouldn't be a Costner protagonist without other characters talking about how awesome he is like he's in a Steven Seagal movie.

      Costner redeemed himself because his counter parts were dumber. In the end the Browns owner is happy. But in reality he went back home and thought is THIS the kind of man I want being GM of my team? Costner traded up to the first pick to draft a Linebacker/pass rusher IMAO. Only reason teams trade up in the NFL is for a QB. Yet Costner character is made out to be brilliant at the end. LOL

      @@MustacheDLuffy At least with Fitterer and Pace their trade ups were on the premise they'd be getting the much needed QB of the future so they got a few months or even a couple years before people felt comfortable laughing at them. Costner got a defensive player he didn't even need to trade up for in the first place, without Seattle blinking, he'd probably be evaluated for the psych ward.
