NFL Mock Draft

[G4LIFE]

Anyone interested in doing a Team Mock Draft:

Rules: I want to use about 10-12 people to do this. Each person will pick a player currently in the NFL (including Rookies) when it's their turn to build their team. Each person will pick 11 Offensive Players, 11 Defensive Players, 1 KR/PR, and a Punter and PlaceKicker. You can use any kind of Offense/Defensive scheme that you want as long as it adds up to 11 players on both sides of the ball. When starting the draft, The person who picks first will select one player but will pick 2 players every other time because the draft order is going to be snaked. Snake order means, The first and last person making their selections will select 2 players each time after the first complete round.

After everyone has their team together we will vote to see who had the best team. I've done this before on another Draft site so I'll keep it organized as far as keeping track of players who have already been selected. Each person has to keep track of their own players when they select them. Everyone will have 24 hours in between picks before they are skipped and the person picking next can select their player.

[MasterShake]

I'd be in on it if it happened sometime soon.

[daredevil2-5]

Sorry, messed up and posted in the wrong thread

[Rexi]

im in but how are we going to organize who is playing?

[Fez]

Count me in.

[iheartniners]

I'm in

[Pound th' Rock]

Im in!

[Rexi]

I'm in. Assuming we're picking an actual team to GM from birth, I'll take the Seahawks. :flex:
i dont think were all going to be assigned an actual nfl team.

[Ace Matherton]

I'm in with the Psyclocebe Mutants

[nolandynasty86]

Im down if there is still room, sounds like a good way to pass time during finals week. A lot better than studying anyways.

[G4LIFE]

Okay we will start this now,

Here is the draft order:

Rexi
Fez
I Heart Niners

Here's what to do, with your first pick, add an entire roster.

like

QB

RB

WR

TE

etc.

Then when it is your turn next time, make a post and go back and update your roster / first pick post :cowboy:

[G4LIFE]

Every few pages or so I'm just going to copy and paste the Players taken list. I'm not going to keep putting the players taken after every pick. I just started it now so people can get an idea of what to look for.

[Fez]

With the second pick in the draft, Fez selects:

Tom Brady, QB, New England Patriots

I second that.

[G4LIFE]

Sounds like a good idea, We will do that

[nolandynasty86]

yea seriously we need to get some structure or else this is going to take friggin forever.

[G4LIFE]

Yeah I know, I was going to give 24 between picks because I know people work and have lives besides the computer but, I like Ace Matherton's idea so we will do that instead.

[Ace Matherton]

Hey Ace, Fez already picked Tom Brady so he gets to keep that pick.

I think if the person picks before you then it's okay if you pick right behind them in your online.

[Ace Matherton]

I think if the person picks before you then it's okay if you pick right behind them in your online.
Ya didnt see the brady pick, ideally we'll get 2 3 or 4 picks in succesion if people are on.

[MasterShake]

3 hours per pick really isn't a long time at all, especially when i work all day and have school.


.....we should make the time limit alot longer. if i go to work and can be gone for 8-16 hours at a time plus school, 3-5 picks could be skipped past me before i knew it. 3 hours is definitly not long enough, we should make the window like 12 hours or something so this doesn't become our lives.

Can't be much longer than 3 hours....it will take a year.

[Ace Matherton]

Can't be much longer than 3 hours....it will take a year.
12 or 8 hours no window would work? How about a compromise?

[G4LIFE]

Can't be much longer than 3 hours....it will take a year.


It won't take a year but it will take a while. On the other draft site that I did it at, It took about 3 weeks for everyone to finish their rosters. I think everyone is on here enough to pick within a decent time but I can see how some people can't make it on here about 4 or 5 times a day to check it.


How Bout we vote:

Everybody chose ONE:

6 hours or 12 hours between picks

I want to make it quick enough where people don't get bored of it taking to long but long enough to where people can have a chance to make their pick on time.

To Start this off.......I VOTE 12 HOURS BETWEEN PICKS.

[MasterShake]

I vote 6 hours.

[Fez]

6 is okay.

[Ace Matherton]

6 hours

[nolandynasty86]

i could go either way really, but in the interest of making it go faster, ill vote for 6 hours. that seems long enough.

[Pound th' Rock]

****it i wanted LT :sad:

[G4LIFE]

6 hours sounds about right to me sense there is no sense of urgency on this game. It's not like we've got to finish in time for the draft.

The other thing I would ask is why wouldn't we open it up to 32 teams? With just a few teams, every team will end up pretty great. But if you made it kind of like a Madden fantasy draft, it would make it much more realistic. Food for thought.

Anyway, since we're into my window, I'm gonna make my selection.

32 Teams....I had a hard time barely getting 11 people to participate....It works better when you have about 10-15 players doing it because alot of people start to die it when they feel it starts to drag.

[G4LIFE]

****it i wanted LT :sad:

Pound Th' Rock....You can make your selection right now if you want....You don't have to wait unless you're not ready.

[Pound th' Rock]

nice pick but his injury was way more serious than mcnabbs and kind of scared me off, and i like mcnabb more anyways

Yeah, can't go wrong with either pick really, but I hear (on sirius NFL radio) Carson will be ready for week 1 this year.

I can't believe 2 Franchise QB's fell that far.

[MasterShake]

I'll take a franchise QB over anything else, any day of the week, if I'm starting from scratch.

Agreed.

[Ace Matherton]

I'll take a franchise QB over anything else, any day of the week, if I'm starting from scratch.
Thats why these are fun, so many different positions of importance. Me personally I'll take a lesser QB that can manage over a playmaker at the position, where as QB for you is the most important. Always interesting to see ho teams pan out with the different strategies.

[nolandynasty86]

simeon rice

[nolandynasty86]

de's are dropping like flies. the guys i have my eye keep going like a pick or two before my spot is up, you guys are reading my mind. not to be a crying baby.

mastershake is on the clock

[G4LIFE]

nice picks, those back-to-back picks really came in big for you. arguably the 2 best players at their positions, and top players overall in the nfl was real nice. i wanted Walter Jones but that elite pass rusher is just too valuable in the nfl and possibly the most valuable guy on the field, i couldn't pass on Freeney. either way, nice picks!


Actually, I was going to pick Freeney but you beat me to it. Walter Jones and Dwight Freeney would've been ridiculous.

[Pound th' Rock]

I wish this would go faster. It's fun :chicken:

[G4LIFE]

I wish this would go faster. It's fun :chicken:

Yep, I'm kinda new to this site and I'm surprised that it never did anything like this (unless it has and I wasn't around). It's a fun thing to do to pass time while waiting for football to start. If you get participants who are on here often, It could go really fast.

[Rexi]

sry power went out today. what'd i miss?

[Pound th' Rock]

Is there no feature on this new message board to tell exactly when someone made a post? It's going to be hard to keep track of who picks when if we can't do that.

[Ace Matherton]

Top left hand corner above the name, just minus the minutes from the time it is.

[Pound th' Rock]

Top left hand corner above the name, just minus the minutes from the time it is.

Yah I know, but once it goes back over 24 hours it just says "1 day ago" or "two days ago", but now that i think about it, it shouldn't make a difference in a 6 hour between turns game.

[nolandynasty86]

dang, its going to be like another week before i pick again.

[Pound th' Rock]

dang, its going to be like another week before i pick again.


hahah, nah sometime tomorrow. Mastershake will either show up or be passed in a few hours.

[MasterShake]

Sorry....Nolandynasty took too long and I needed sleep....east coast.

With my second pick I'll take.....

John Abraham, DE

[Rexi]

so bout this. its been hectic, power was off last night and school today but im back on it.

[G4LIFE]

so since i was passed on i can draft anytime? in that case ill take MLB Ray Lewis

Rexi, What are you doing playa? It seems like everyone knows how the draft order is running except for you. The draft order is snaked and the draft order is going in the opposite direction now. The draft order is making it's way back to you and when it does you're going to be picking TWICE. Edit your post and take off Ray Lewis because it's not your pick yet.

If anyone sees this post before Rexi edits it, Ray Lewis is still available because it's not Rexi's pick yet.

Ihearttheniners is on the clock. His time expires at 7:30 PT

[Pound th' Rock]

Yep. My strategy too.

Yah, you are going to have an absurd offense.

[MasterShake]

Yep. My strategy too. Only one that makes sense this early in the draft.

I'm doing it in Tiers, so when Dwight Freeney goes off the board I don't ignore DE's. John Abraham is still a elite tier DE so I'll pick him before say a Randy Moss because DE has more value and well I don't like Moss either lol.

I was also lucky to have the last elite QB and DE fall to me at my spots, being the most valuable positions on offense and defense.

[nolandynasty86]

Im using the rope-a-dope strategy.

I'm using whatever name comes off my mind. LOL.

that is correct, the draft order is snaking, people seem to be forgetting that somehow.

[Fez]

Okay... people...

Rounds in odd numbers go as normal.. Rexi first, me second, iheart third...

Rounds in pair numbers go backwards...

Is that clear?!?

(Yes, sir!)

Okay.. here I go...

After picking the general of my offense in Tom Brady, it is natural that now I wanna pick an elite general of the defensive unit, and who's better than:



http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/magazine/features/si50/states/new_mexico/essay/p1_urlacher.jpg

BRIAN URLACHER.

A relatively young MLB, field general, motivator and recently named the Defensive Player of the Year. Tackle machine, effective blitzer.

Oddly enough, he's from the same draft class as Tom Brady.


Rexi is next, with two straight picks.

Besides I'm not gonna put a higher stock on a WR than an elite MLB. And the DEs available don't deserve a second round pick IMO.

Mike Stahan and Osi Umenyiora, i think they could be secon round graded

you dont need to justify that, urlacher at the end of the second is a steal. i was a little amazed he wasnt the first lb taken.

I meant it kind of tongue in cheek. I'm just crackin' up on how people are selling their picks like a used car.

"Brian Bosworth is a young upcoming stud with a lot of upside. Picking hims solidifies the middle of the defense for years and Joe's team is happy to make the selection at this point in the draft."

Just sounds kinda funny. :)

Oh good God. I can name at least five receivers in the NFL that are better than Terrell Owens.

I dont agree with this either. Ignoring off the field issues, i dont think there is a better reciever in the league.

[nolandynasty86]

also i cant believe i didnt get a pick today. we need to speed this up a bit. I think it should be somewhere around 1.5 picks a day.

[Ace Matherton]

Per PM master shake has selected Ed Reed
I also have his second pick if we get to it but it wont post till 630 am pacific if its his turn.

[Pound th' Rock]

Matter of opinion but I think that anyone who says Terrell Owens is outright the best receiver in the league has bought into a ton of hype. He's good but the best? Not even close.

Agreed. Whether you want to believe it or not, off the field issues matter. And he has the tendency to turn them into ON THE FIELD issues, or at least IN THE LOCKER ROOM issues. And that destroys a team.

[Ace Matherton]

As you said opinion, I'll take T.O.'s effort, training and ability over any other reciever in the league. His off field issues IMO are the only thing keeping him from being the best WR. No other player at his postion can match his skill set let alone 5.I'll give you off field issues mater a bunch in the real world but for the purposes of the game he's got no eaqual with the exception of Moss and a young Ftitzgerald and he'll prove it this year with the cowpokes. I hate saying it but the T.O. of 04 will pale in comparison of the T.o. of 06 IMO.

For the purposes of this game, I am going to take off the field issues and history into account.

I'm cool with that, chemistry is now a deciding factor.

[nolandynasty86]

What my team needs is more facial hair and a qb, therefore I select Jake Plummer.

its about quarter past 2 in the a.m right now, pst.

Per PM master shake has selected Ed Reed
I also have his second pick if we get to it but it wont post till 630 am pacific if its his turn.

G4LIFE's first pick has been passed, does he get another 6 hours to make his 2nd pick or his he skipped altogether?
gets 6 more

[Ace Matherton]

gets 6 more
Ya for now but i say we change that after this six hour period.. Seems like 6 hours is enough for 1 or 2 picks.

[Ace Matherton]

gets 6 more
Also I was thinking maybe when we complete this we send the teams to people outside the game to vote along with our votes. Like Majestik, blade, tiz or whomever for some unbiased opinion (since i gather all of us will put our team first most likely).

[Fez]

Send it to "Rollin' with 49ers" :fishing:

[Fez]

we can work that out as we go but the way this is going it just may take months to complete. i was hoping to get through like a round a day so this would take less than a month but it is looking very unlikely.


MMmmhhh...

Went to page 1, and the very first post says "2 days ago"... maybe by today it will change to "3 days ago", but that's exactly the round we're finishing, so it isn't that bad yet.

[Ace Matherton]

G4life pick ends @ 2pm pacific.

[MasterShake]

maybe but that value of a safety is far less than other positions, besides the fact there are alot of real good safeties that are just as good and will be available later.

Safety's as good as Ed Reed?! you MUST be dreaming. Ed Reed is a dynamic playmaker and was DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE YEAR in 2004. Since the award was started in 1971....3 safeties have won it....the last one being 1984....20 years prior to Ed winning it.

I agree Safety has less value then some other positions, but Ed Reed is far and away th best safety in the league and his value is way higher than any other safety. He gives the safety position value, getting him with the 31st pick as absolute robbery.

Hey here is our boy Nolan chiming in!:

"I don't know if there is a better playmaker in the game," says former Ravens defensive coordinator and new 49ers coach Mike Nolan. "Ed is clearly the best safety in the league."

[nolandynasty86]

LMFAO, he'll just ramble on about something completely irrelevant, instead of grading our teams :falldownlaugh:

seriously, that guy is a moron.
On another note, i havent checked in in a while and it looks like we have given g4life 12 hours for both of his picks, which was something i was wondering if we were going to do or not. i never asked just because it didnt seem like it was neccessary. The 6 hours is to make sure they have time to make it to the computer, not to contemplate their pick. i think i picked at around 2:15 a.m, that gives him just over an hour correct?

[Fez]

Correct.

[Ace Matherton]

We're closing his pick at 2 and i have Master shakes pick as well so we should get a nice little run going.

[Pound th' Rock]

Hey I wanted 3 hours per pick, I say at some future round we start reducing the time.

As far as i'm concered 6h is enough and it should be changed.

[Pound th' Rock]

I propose switching the time for picks to 4 hours.

[Pound th' Rock]

Yes vote from me. In fact, if you wanted to cut it to 3, I'd say yes to that too.

I'm absolutely fine with three hours.

[nolandynasty86]

well, considering that we have a member who is now 7 picks behind (g4life) we might want to wait on cutting the time in half just yet. just in the interest of fairness i would say we should wait for it to get back to g4life to change IMO.
however, it needs to be 6 for rexi, there is no reason it should be 12, is anyone against that?

[Pound th' Rock]

Ask Rexi, he's right here :ok:

But I agree, we should wait for G4Life before we change the time limit.

[Rexi]

dude u guys he created the thread he isnt blowing off the game. most likely he has a life. 12 hours is a bit much though and it seems unfair. we should keep it at 6 hrs though.

[Fez]

So, who's nexT?

[Fez]

i think it's iheartniners, not sure though

we should just get everyone together for a few hours and bang this thing out :laugh:
yes! :tung: Wishful thinking, tho... besides, what's the rush?

I AM in a rush, tho... Heart ain't here and I wanna pick already... gotta take a shower!!! :tung:

isnt it 15 minutes till hearts time is up? anyone know?

[nolandynasty86]

well according to the post two before this, he has about 7 minutes.

[Rexi]

i know i posted that i thought it he has till 8 PT but im not 100% on it, so i dont want to screw things up

[Ace Matherton]

The last offical pick was 4 hours ago so he actually has 2 more hours.

I say we make the switch to 3 hours on the next person. Can I get someone to second and third the motion?

[Pound th' Rock]

i completely object!


6 hours is fine and short enough. anybody that has to work real hours like 8+ hours a day or in a shift or have to go to school will get completely screwed.

hehe alrighty. 6 works for me too, for some reason when I read your above post i thought you were saying "we really need to speed it up". I'm going to be gone from Friday - Sunday so a lengthier time would actually be good for me.

3 hours with window six without were the choices and we went with the latter.
PTR your still up till 1230 pm

[Ace Matherton]

12 or 8 hours no window would work? How about a compromise?
The next post (11th on the first page or so) it wa specified we'd vote on 12 or 6 rather than 8 with no windows. No window was specified in my post so its implied that since G4life's post was after mine and he did not specify a window, that we voted for 6 hours no window.
And for the record I dont really care how long or if there is a window just trying to keep things moving.

[jerry rice]

Cool mock draft game! Once you guys are done, maybe we can do something like this, but for Fantasy Football...

No linemen or defensive players.

Because jake gets road rage and he must be a very bad person, I heard once he shot a cat with a bebe gun, then wrapped a sock around its front feet and body and spun it till it got dizzy. Resulting in the cat running around in circles hitting walls.

[Pound th' Rock]

I will be gone from friday through sunday, so I second the motion.

[nolandynasty86]

eh im cool either way, im done with school on friday, so of course i will be doing a little celebrating:shots: which actually might make for some very interesting and controversial picks (ex; call me crazy,(stumble, slur)err, but uh im going to pick mike vick, and line him up in the slot, hah boo yea! what a pick) but either way if people want to take a break for the weekend thats cool, but im actually probably less busy for the weekend aside from the few hours i will be incapacitated/drunk/hungover.

[MasterShake]

You just reminded me that I'm going on vacation next week and I'll be gone for about 11 days :francis:

You lose!

I hate breaks but would go along with it because I'm a great guy. :biggrin:

I will be traveling to Bristol, Connecticut on business next week (yep, I'm goin' where you're thinkin' - don't hate) and I will be gone between Tuesday and Friday. However I will have internet access but I might be a little slower in getting my picks in. But it shouldn't be that noticable.
