balta1701-A Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 Hi everyone! Last year's Talkbears mock draft was enjoyable enough for me that I figured WTH, I'll do it again. I'm open to formatting suggestions, but here's a basic outline. Each participant picks a team, or multiple teams if you'd like. From the moment we start, you're the GM. You want to trade picks, you want to bring Cutler to the Bears, whatever you want to do, do it. (2009 picks traded in the 2008 Talkbears Mock Draft do not count ). My goal is to start the draft process on Monday, March 30th, give or take. This gives us a little more time before the draft than we had last year, so we can push it longer if we want, and we won't be in a rush to get everyone to pick rapidly to finish before the draft. That means that every team will need to be filled before then. When your team goes on the clock, you'll have 24 hours to make your pick otherwise we start getting annoyed and sending you lots of PM's and such. Since this is a Bears site, it's somewhat expected that the Bears will be a team in demand. Therefore, we'll hold a raffle for them based on a standard random number generator. If you're interested in being the Bears, please explicitly say so in this thread and you'll be entered in to the lottery when it's run. Otherwise, please request whatever team you'd like to GM for in this thread. I'm going to be out of town next week, which is why I'm posting this today. A couple of the other Mods/admins have said they'll keep my list updated/handle any disagreements while I'm gone. If someone requests a team that you'd really really like, other than the Bears...hope we can find some way to work things out, there'll probably be a couple extra teams available. Here's your first round draft order, and this list will be updated with your name once you grab a team: 1. Detroit Lions - Dabearsdabomb 2. St. Louis Rams - Brianbear 3. Kansas City Chiefs - bowlingtwig 4. Seattle Seahawks - jason 5. Cleveland Browns - Pixote 6. Cincinnati Bengals - Pixote 7. Oakland Raiders - The Prophet 8. Jacksonville Jaguars - Balta1701 9.

madlithuanian Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 Put me in for the Bears in the lottery please. If not the Bears then I'll gladly take in order: 1 SF 2 BAL 3 NE Much thanks! ...but may I recommend we don't allow trades. While kind of fun, it's too Madden-esque and skews the info far too much and rarely happens. Just my 2 cents worth! Hi everyone!

DABEARSDABOMB Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 I also agree on the overall idea of no trades since the reality is you'll only have a couple in the first round or two of the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madlithuanian Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 Just to clarify...I only want to do one team unless it's needed. Then I'm willing to do the others.

Pixote Posted March 29, 2009 Report Share Posted March 29, 2009 I can give it a try. Pulling OT at work while it is available so not sure how quick I can respond to my selection but I check in every morning before going to work and every night after returning home so the most I would take is say 12 hours to select, in the worse case scenerio. Just fill me in where needed. I will take multiple teams if needed, but if you sign me up for multiple teams, put them back to back to make it easier for me to keep track, LOL.

madlithuanian Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 Balta, I'm willing to do more than one... I can do all 8 if you need... I'd still like my initial prefeence order, and I've added some: 1. Bears 2. SF 3. BAL 4. NE 5. PIT 6. DAL 7. NYG 8. SD And also reiterate that I'd love to ban trades/etc...it's too much that skews the attempt at keeping this real... Just to clarify...I only want to do one team unless it's needed.

balta1701-A Posted April 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2009 Ok, post #1 is updated with the ones people have completely confirmed, except both Madlith and Jason suggested they'd do the 49ers, so it would be nice if one of you 2 would defer. Those who've said they're interested, just fire away with a team if you have any preference at all. I put madlith down for 2 other teams but he's suggested he could do more.

balta1701-A Posted April 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2009 So far, I count 18 teams remaining including Dallas, MadLithuanian has 4 others he'd do, the prophet was interested in 3, Pix asked for 2 potentially back to back ones, and I can take another pick or two. That's about 10-11 wild cards remaining that I can dispense, but we still have slots to fill up even if all of those were assigned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
