Houston (scs787) with the 1st overall pick are now on the clock...............

Managers: scs787 (Houston, Detroit, Chicago, Miami, New Orleans) bradjock (St. Louis, Buffalo, Kansas City, San Diego, New England, Washington) MadLith (Jacksonville, Minnesota, Pittsburgh, New York Jets, Cincinnati Stinger226 (Cleveland, Atlanta, Dallas, Arizona, Denver, Indianapolis) Jason (Oakland, Tennessee, Green Bay, San Francisco, Seattle) Adam (Tampa Bay, New York Giants, Baltimore, Philadelphia, Carolina) I did a randomizer on all teams except TEN, SF, and SEA as Jason expressed interest in those teams. We have 16 days, so for the first round we will give 12 hours per pick, if no pick is received, we will choose BPA that fills a need and move to the next manager. After the first round, we will cut the time down to 8 hours, and 6 hours for the 3rd round. If we average about 5-6 picks a day, we can get through the first 100 picks. No trades, just pick straight up.

Brad makes 5, so we are looking good.

Sounds like a plan, I will execute Monday nite.

I will start randomizing the teams and managers tonight but will give it until 8pm to get more names; right now I have scs, Stinger, MadLith, and myself. 5-6 would be preferable, but we can go with us 4 having 8 teams each. At least we will get thru more rounds with less managers.

I will start randomizing the teams tonight, and give it a few more hours to get more participation. If not, no biggie, 4-5 guys will work.

Yeah I will just use one of the web-based randomizers and go in draft order.

Ok, no prob, I will use a randomizer and plug our names in and just do that until all the teams have manager.

That would be a dream draft for me. Getting a top notch Safety and 2x DT's of that caliber in one draft would be awesome. I wouldn't even mind trading a 5th-7th to move up in the 2nd or 3rd to make that happen.

Ok cool, I will make a sticky, add names to teams, and once we have all 32, we can start. Just let me know which teams you are "interested" in managing.

Anyone interested in doing a community Mock Draft? We did one a few years ago and it was pretty successful. We can each pick a few teams and start picking until the draft starts and go as far as we can go.

To me the 2nd DT pick would have to be BPA, and I doubt a DT is BPA at that point. If we draft a DT in the first, our need for DT becomes the 4th-7th need on the team at that point behind S, CB, LB, and possibly TE, OL, QB. Now I can see us taking another DT in the 1st or 2nd next year, but I highly doubt we go that route in one draft and completely pass on S or CB in the first 2 rounds.

I agree, then the same could be said for QB, CB (Tillman/Jennings), WR (Marshall), LB (Briggs), etc. Kind of silly. I too am cooling on Donald in the 1st. I would much rather go with the top Safety or CB if we can't get the "right" guy on the DLine. Obviously it would be nice to trade back to pick up another pick but as Emery has said, you rarely get the same value when you do that.

I think the backup strategy will come down to whether the team expects Cutler to play every game, or if they see him as injury prone. If it is the former, than I can see them going the rookie route. If they view him as injury prone, then I can see them bringing in a vet who can come in and be serviceable.

Yeah pretty crappy. Also based on Emery's trend, first rounders come from Senior Bowl rosters, so Donald then Ward would make sense.

At #14, one of those 3 will be there.

My hope is that 3x QB's go before we pick. Even if teams trade up to get them. That would leave us most of the following available: DL: Donald, Jernigan S: Clinton-Dix, Pryor CB: Gilbert, Dennard OL: Lewan LB: Barr WR: Evans TE: Ebron How would you guys rank these available? I would go Donald, Clinton-Dix, Gilbert as my top 3, and possibly Lewan if he is there.

I would only say Lott and Reed if they were on that team at their current age last year. Otherwise, in their prime they still would've been impact players on that Defense last year. Conte is league-average at best, but looks a lot worse when the rest of the defense is at or below his level.

Almost have to go Safety in the 1st if HaHa is there.

I don't think you can narrow it down that much. In a perfect world, we go DT and S in the first two rounds and address our biggest needs with impact players. However, the draft will dictate that order because I would hate to lock myself into a S in the 2nd after picking a DT in the first, then picking a guy with a 3rd round grade when there is a CB sitting there with a higher grade. Even though CB is not as big of a need as the other two, one injury to Jennings or Peanut and it will be. I would think the best strategy would be to weight each position for need, then have a grade on every player. So if there is a DT with a B+ and a CB with an A sitting there, then you have to make the decision on which way to go. Then you apply this to every round. That way you are getting the best player available in a need area unless the grade itself outweighs the need (ie. OL from top 10 dropping to 14).

Yeah, if it was Bucs I would've believed it.

I like his enthusiasm. He is going to be a great addition to the locker room and push these guys.

SMC was #50, Wootton was #49, Bass #46. Peppers was #15 but tied with Allen, Michael Johnson and Chris Long.
