Mock Draft Chat

[TheRobotDevil]

Since we are going with different ideas, here is mine. Instead of each pick being one player, it's a position group. You can select any group that played together for one full season. So you are getting anywhere from 3-5 players with each pick. Position groups are:

1 QB/RB/FB- (2)....You will select two picks in the draft for this group, meaning you will have 6 players from those two picks
2 WR/ 1 TE - (2)
5 OL - (2)
4 DL - either 3 or 4 depending on system. if you are 4-3, you get 2 DT and 2 DE (2 picks, 8 players)
3 LB - again, if you are a 4-3 set, you get 3 LB's. (2 picks, 6 players)
4 DB's - 2 CB, 2 S (2 picks, 8 players)
3 Specialists - P, K - (2 picks, 4 players)

So here is how it works. Say I had the 1st pick in the draft and I decided to take the 1996 Cowboys QB/RB/FB with my 1st pick. I could then add Troy Aikman, Emmitt Smith and Moose Johnston to my roster. Then later on, I took the 2005 Steelers as my other QB/RB/FB pick and added Big Ben, Willie Parker and Dan Kreider. Those six players would be my roster for those positions. Then it would be up to me as to who my starters were, who was my backup QB and who was my 3rd down back. Same thing at WR/TE. Let's say that my WR/TE'S ended up being Julio Jones, Roddy White and Tony Gonzales from the Falcons and Wes Chandler, Charlie Joiner and Kellen Winslow from the Chargers. I could show 4 WR sets, two TE sets, whatever I want, and I added 6 players with only two picks.

***The great thing about this draft, IMO, would be that we would be drafting 48 man rosters, but the draft would only be 14 total rounds long!

Also, like any mock, the same player can't play for two teams, meaning once I took Troy, Emmitt and Moose, someone could go to a 70's Cowboys squad and take Roger, Tony D and Robert Newhouse, but not the 3 guys I took.

I actually like this one a lot but thats jmo

I’d vote for this idea

Wait I didn’t see Kicker/Punter...hell yeah. It says 3 specialists so i am guessing KR/PR is included...

NFL partner draft. One drafts O one drafts D we don't find out who our part is until after the draft. I let half the league know they will draft O and the other half they will draft D.

We draft 20 players on offense and 20 on defense, 1 kicker, 1 punter, 1 kick returner, 1 punt returner for a total of 44 players, 22 by each drafter.

The guy drafting O picks the kicker and kick returner the guy drafting D picks the punter and punt returner.

We can talk about if we want any restrictions...

there is no connection to the partnership, whats the point of it being a partner?? and there is only going to be half the amount of teams than owners, so the draft is extremely shallow...

I'll add in an idea now: A Super Bowl draft.

You have to pick a player from each Super Bowl winner that would fit a roster. So if we go with a 30 man roster you have to pick from 30 Super Bowl winners. So if I wanted to pick Peyton Manning from the 2006 Colts I couldn't pick Marvin Harrison. As to the Cowboys and other multi time Super Bowl winners you can pick up to 3 of them so you could pick Troy Aikman, Emmit Smith and Michael Irvin if you wanted as they would fit 3 Super Bowl winners (1992, 1993, 1995). Just an idea but 1 I think could work.

So, you could pick Peyton Manning for the Broncos, then Harrison for the Colts, right?

That's right @femurov

What about NFL/college Draft where you can only take 2 players per college for your team. So you already took 2 players who went to OSU then you can’t take anyone else who went there.

You could also do this for NBA but I’d make it only 1 per college team. If they didn’t go to college you can only take 1 who went from HS to NBA. I already call dibs on Kwame Brown.

I actually like this for NFL. However I think me and @wlk3 should get a trojan horse pick. And be allowed to pick as many SC players as we can fit in a giant wooden horse
