Mock Draft Contests---Discussion thread

Real good chance one or both of those picks comes true.

It's kind of funny, I run it a lot, because I have fun with it.

I have most often ended up with Clive Walford, AJ Cann, and David Parry since my first post in using it.

Heh, you know, I am still having 3-4 drafts an evening and having a ball with that simulator.

cool, won the nfl draft contest. sorta wild getting 6 out of the top 12 picks exactly right as well as 7 out of 12 the exact player drafted in the exact spot; and apart from Ray, nailed 11 out of the top 12 players drafted (who would have guessed he would have done something that dumb the weekend before the draft). that would have been acceptable when it was my job to scout those guys.

Nice job, Ing...

Nice job, Ing...

thanks

i'll also point out the date of my submission. Typically you should form your opinion about these picks during the college football season, not after. the carnival nonsense of the combine and workouts is only valuable to help you guess which players will be over-rated by owners who have more influence then sense in their draft room, and then promptly over-drafted.

all you need to do this sort of thing right is to know the team, it's management, how it likes to draft, what it's needs are, and then know who's available. Some teams like to take BPA, some take Need, and some draft based on whatever shinny thing grabs their owner's attention. By the way, in no way do i believe either Winston or Mariota should have been drafted in round one. neither was worth it. But as usual need for QBs makes the nfl draft these guys way beyond where they should be drafted. Same thing the bills did with EJ. Only EJ was at best a 3rd round value, where as winston and mariota are both early 2nd round value picks.

Props to Night Train, Cleve and Jokeman for nailing the Miller pick.

I agree 1000%.

Thanks but it wasn't a tough one to guess.
