Is There A Draft Forum?

[Fleet]

Or discussion of any kind going on here? This place is easy to get lost in and i might be missing it. I havnt been around here in a long time. Is the NFL forum being used for draft discussion?

Thanks

We had an NFL draft forum a while ago. I had asked the mods for it and they created it and made me a mod but after about 1-2 months the main mods/owner removed it because people were 'confused by it' and it didn't get as many views/likes as they wanted, so it's back to the NFL general and team boards in terms of discussion.

I'd be all for adding it back. Obviously it's only going to get attention 1-2 months out of the year. They also didn't add it the way I wanted, it was sort of shoved in an unnoticeable spot and I don't think many users were even aware it existed.

Might not be as clueless as hammer.

PM @Shaggy and ask him.

There are two options. One is to create a sub-forum that will appear at the top of this forum which can be filled with multiple draft related threads. The second is create a draft thread & 'sticky' it.

The draft sub-forum could just be a temporary thing the only lasts till shortly after the draft.

Well the last draft forum really didn’t take off. Then when a poster pointed that out, Hammer pulled the plug. Not sure if starting it back up would turn it around.

Someone just "sticky" an official draft thread. While we are at it, we need to get a free agency "sticky" thread as well. I think the tamper window starts on Monday.

Start the threads and I will sticky them.

I am not enamored with a draft thread. Someone else can start that one if they want one.

That it in a nutshell why the draft forum got pulled.

Yep. I prefer to have draft threads in our individual team forums.

Do the Cards actually use the team forum? Not much it seems.

Nope. There only seems to be three or four of us around. I went on hiatus from the forum for a long while after my father passed away in September. When I reappeared after the new year, Cards fans seem to be gone.

That’s a shame. Think someone needs to take the lead and start posting something that others will respond to. The draft and free agency could provide the subject. Just saying.....

Yeah. Unfortunately, the Cards have been quiet so far. They haven't even announced the cuts we all expect are coming. Peterson, Iupati, & Veldheer.

I'm curious what time of year they tried that. Draft pages get lots of hits like 2 months out of the year and almost none the other 10.

All Hooplans over the age of 38 must register for the Draft forum.

Not sure but think it was about this time of year.

Problem was/is everyone just posts draft stuff on the NFL board.
