NFL Draft Contest

[cdumler7]

So hadn't seen this yet so figured get this going since we only have a week before the draft. You can put in multiple drafts but your final one will be the one that counts. I'm just copy and pasting this from last year with what we had for the rules...there are a couple of changes this year so make sure to read all the rules.

Alright Bronco fans, it is time to fire up the 2016 Draft Contest . . .

Rules are fairly straightforward - choose the player you think the Broncos will choose at the given spot ..

You are allowed to predict trades, both picks and current players ...

Here is how we'll score it:

+10 points for picking the correct player at the correct spot

+5 points for the correct player but at the wrong spot

+3 points for the correct position at the correct spot

- Added bonus for trades

+5 points for trading the pick ( either up or down )

+10 points for correct trade position

- AS PER NFL RULES, COMPENSATORY PICKS CAN BE TRADED!

- Undrafted Free Agents

Pick 5 UDFAs

+3 points for each correct player

+1 point if you pick a player during the draft and we sign him as a free agent ... Also, if you pick a player as an UDFA and we take him during the draft, you also get 1 point ...

One added bonus rule for this year. If you pick the right player for the Mr. Irrelevant Pick that is 10 points


OK, let's get to it:


Remember, compensatory picks CAN be traded

Cut and paste this and fill it out:

Round 1: Pick 20
Round 2: Pick 51
Round 3: Pick 82
Round 3: Pick 101 (Comp Pick)
Round 4: Pick 127
Round 5: Pick 177 (Comp Pick)
Round 6: Pick 203
Round 7: Pick 238
Round 7: Pick 252
Round 7: Pick 253

Can't edit your posts so better to wait
Unless they relaxed the time constraint

They haven't. Like I said if you fill out one draft and then later change your mind we will just go with the most recent one posted for the actual contest. Just make sure if you do a new one to include all picks not just the ones you changed. Don't want to have to keep looking back and forth between 2 different posts to get it all.

I don't want to wait too long, then forget to fill one out, so this is my version 1.0...

Round 1: Pick 20 - OT Ryan Ramcyzk, Wisconsin
Round 2: Pick 51 - DT Montravious Adams, Auburn
Round 3: Pick 82 - WR Dede Westbrook, Oklahoma
Round 3: Pick 101 (Comp Pick) - LB Kendall Beckwith, LSU
Round 4: Pick 127 - G/T Dan Isadora, Miami, Fla
Round 5: Pick 177 (Comp Pick) - CB Des Lawrence, North Carolina
Round 6: Pick 203 - C Kyle Fuller, Baylor
Round 7: Pick 238 - WR Hasaan Henderson, Nevada
Round 7: Pick 252 - LB Leon Jacobs, Wisconsin
Round 7: Pick 253 - LB Aaron Curry, TCU


UDFA

1. LB Hardy Nickerson, Jr., Illinois
2. CB Cole Luke, Notre Dame
3. CB Jaylen Myrick, Minnesota
4. CB Jeremy Clark, Michigan
5. RB Barry Sanders, Jr., Oklahoma State

I know zero, so here's the coin flips from the Pacific Ovean:

Pick 34 - traded down from #20 with SF for 34/66/161
Jarred Davis, LB, Florida

51 - Roderick Johnson, OT, Florida State

66 - Sidney Jones, CB, Washington

82 - Antonio Garcia, OT, Troy

101 - Dede Westbrook, WR, Oklahoma

127 - Jake Butt, TE, Michigan

161 - Carlos Watkins - DT, Clemson

177 - Jordan Leggett, TE, Clemson

203 - Brian Hill, RB, Wyoming

238 - Ryan Glasgow, DT, Michigan

252 - Garrett Sickles, OLB, Penn State

253 - Trent Taylor, WR, Louisiana Tech

Free Agents
ITavius Mathers, RB, Middle Tennessee
Cameron Hunt, OG, Oregon
Nathan Gerry, SS, Nebraska
Deangelo Yancey, WR, Purdue
Jalen Robinnette, WR, Air Force

Ain't no way we end up with this many picks - I was too lazy to trade up when needed. And I took two injured players in Jones and Butt, and know that is unlikely as well. But in a year with so many picks, why not?

Rule question...

How are the positions grouped? Are all Olinemen the same? Dlinemen? How do you count those "tweener" guys who played DE in college, but project as a 34 OLB or something?

Hmmm good question...I would say G/C can be mixed together but OT is separate.

For the DL if they are a DT and expected to play NT or DE for us in the 3-4 then they are grouped together. IF they play DE and are expected to play OLB for us then we can group those together as well.

What would Lamp be? a Guard?

What would Lamp be? a Guard?

I'd assume a light source

 

[Mingo]

1:20 D. Bolles OT - Utah
2:19 Curtis Samuel - WR Ohio State
3:18 Ahkello Witherspoon CB Colorado
3:37 Kendell Beckwith LB LSU
4:19 Dalvin Tomlinson NT Alabama
5:33 Ryan Switzer WR North Carolina
6:19 S. Perine - RB - Oklahoma
7:20 Noble Nwachukwu DE West Virginia

7:35 Anthony Walker ILB Northwestern

Free Agents
Josh Tupou NT - CU
Jalen Robinette WR - Air Force
Marquel Lee, ILB, Wake Forest
Matt Milano, LB, Boston College
Justin Davis, RB, USC

 

[SpringStein]

Good mock, @Mingo - I could see Witherspoon in the 3rd.

 

[SpringStein]

@Orange Crush - where is your mock with your favorite in it?

 

[cdumler7]

What would Lamp be? a Guard?

Lamp is one of the few I think we should count for all 3. I know the Broncos if they draft him view him as a LT where other teams view him as a guard.

Just so I know what I'm up against, who was leader last year and how many points did he/she tally ? Anyone got that ?

Idk but I've won it 3 times. In 2006 i nailed the jay cutler trade up and position so it was basically over after round one.

 

[randymon]

Just by looking back at 2016 draft, going to have to assume point total was "sad " and most came from UDFA . So, without further ado.....
F.Lamp - OL - W. Kentucky
J. Mixon - Rb - Oklahoma
M.Adams - Dt - Auburn
A.Shaleen - Te - Ashland
Noah Brown- Wr - Ohio St
Damontae Kazee CB - SD St
Connor Harris - ILB - Lindenwood
Storm Norton - Ot - Toledo
Avery Moss - Lb/De - Youngstown St
Trevor Knight - Qb - Texas A & M
UDFA..
Robinette Wr- AF
Lefu -Qb Colo
Chor Mama
Nuneya Bzznes

 

[randymon]

PS. Like SS and Mingo draft

 

[SpringStein]

Draft Crazy is the defending champion, not sure on the points. But it often doesn't take many points to win this thing!
