Mock draft competition - discussion thread

Postby BradyT » Thu Jan 07, 2010 9:18 am

Well.. who is up for the following?


2010 1st round mock draft competition:

10 points for every correct player (for example you say Taylor Mays goes #1 and he actually does*)

5 points for every correct position (for example you say Taylor Mays goes #1 but in the end it is Eric Berry*)
*both very likely.. :lol:

Plain and simple :)

A few questions:

1) Do we make a difference between the different LB positions(important for the 5 pt rule)? I´d say No!

2) Safeties are safeties?! doesnt matter if SS or FS?! I´d say yes!

3) Difference between the different Oline positions? I´d say yes!(no question IMO)

4) Post everyones mock draft at the morning of draft day 1?! (we just need to make sure nobody copying someone elses mock :D.. or we just trust each other and could post our mocks at any time, weeks/months/now before the draft and just change it from time to time)

5) Anything you wanna add/scratch(regarding rules,scoring and maybe the number of rounds we´re doing)? If not?...

...please sign up. I´m gonna update the list

I vote we label both FS and SS as just safeties, and the same thing LB

I will be in. The competitions I have been in in the past are set up differently and maybe we could include some of those components. The way they were set up you got 15 points if you got the player right for that pick...less if you were one pick off, less than that if you were two picks off, etc.

I think was 15, 11, 9, 7, 5, 3, 1 or something like that. Maybe combine that with the points for getting the position right? Just a thought. Either way I will participate and monitor my points from Radio City Music Hall :wink:

So I still get points(or better 1) if I say Taylor Mays at #1 and he gets drafted at #15? this way you almost get points for every player.. well almost. :lol:
not sure.. but lets hear what others say - you guys have more expereince in setting up something like this and knowing what works.

No lets say you predict Mays at #8 overall and he goes #9. You wouldn't get the full 15 points, you would get 11 or whatever you determine the scoring to be prior the draft. I would have to look it up to see how it worked again but it was something like that.

And if he goes #10,#11 and so on? or #7#6...?

That is what you would have to come up with. I think the competition I did was...

0 picks off - 15 points
1 pick off - 9 points
2 picks off - 7 points
3 picks off - 5 points
4 picks off - 3 points
5 picks off - 1 point
6 or more - 0 points

I think that is a great idea Dan. Its exactly what I have been a part of in the past. I would most definitely be in with this "marginal" scoring system.
And if it were more of a "absolute" scoring system ..I will still participate but I dont like my chances as much.

I dont like my chances regardless but hey Ive got to get lucky sometime.

Got my top 5 set but if u have ever done this before, you find out really quickly that after picks 12 or 13 its anybody guess.

Before I forget --what I think needs to be clarified is the scoring system for picks. Are we scoring correct picks for going to the correct team or for picks going at the correct draft slot.
Id prefer correct draft slot as Ive always picked with the intent that that particular team is ging to pck there-- but as we all know teams move up and down-- and if that happens at least I know i might be able to score in a marginal point system if I dont get the right team but get it right within a certain number of picks.

I hope the last paragraph made sense.

ONly example I could think of is Houston moving up to take Mario Williams. If it were picking the team there would have been no way anyway had saw this coming . If we wer picking draft slots I can see where even if the saints were stil on the clock some of us...perhaps those who are big nc state fans could have still scored on Mario.

Mario did go to NCState right..I threw that one out there without looking.
Time to shower and get settled in for my LOnghorns.

HOOK EM HORNS!!

No I think it would need to be the player going to the right team at the right draft slot, with the draft order being the one as it is going into day 1. If a trade like what the Jets did happens, I guess thats bad luck.

atleast the full 15 points, yes. allthough I´m not quiet sure how this could work with the scoring you guys want. and would happen if you say Taylor Mays goes # to OAK, but OAK trades this pick to another team and this other team still selects Mays. This would mean no picks off, but not the team(OAK) you said. maybe just 10 points instead of the full 15. Because to get the full 15, I think yiu have to predict everything right. Shouldn´t be to "easy".

trust me picking the spot aint that easy. TRUST ME. iVE got like 9out of the first 12 right one year and thought I ws gonnas score a ton ..and then all all the movements took place. AFter some teams move up and down and tms are done with all the smoke screens you find that all the predictions by kiper and mcshay arent right on.

Im still with picking the spot and wehn you hit the team perhpas that cjould be a "bonus".

I'm in. Don't think you can differentiate between 'backers because you don't know whos going to play what in the pros (ex. Maulaga). I would say it could be an issue with the DE/LB hybrids.
