2046 Draft Thread

[Matt]

Shark is on the clock since he is GM let's make prediction of his draft choice. I say he take DE Arden or DE Quinn,

Moved to the draft thread.

[Sharkn20]

I decided to go with OT Jamal Marina from California, My Scouts love him and the Interview cameback As Scouted, he will probably be moved to LG where his weight is best. A road blocker with excellent footwork to protect Ciszcek. He is only 15% Developed and he will need sometime to reach his peak, but I canīt miss on him.

Good pick on the Tackle

[PikeStance]

Why is it taking people this long to make a pick in the middle of the morning? Is someone trying to move up into the 1st round??? or move back?

[Guest]

First round is done!

edit: april fools i guess

The draft would go quicker if people would announce they are looking for a trade. If not, you should make your pick or have the system do it by setting up a priority list. That is there for a reason. It works very well. I have done three drafts and 80% of my picks are done while I am sleeping.

I would suggest In order to encourage the use of this system is to have a longer period of time between seeing the first prospect and the actual start of the draft. Between 8 PM last night and ( AM this morning there has been a grand total of two picks. To put in US time zone; from 9 AM to 10 PM EST. Moreover, in that tie span, there have been virtually no activity on the forum. If you care that little for your pick, then maybe you can set it up so that the system picks the BPA.

Draft always ends before FA ends, yeah a person is all ready to draft, but why rush it enjoy it we have the whole FA to get errrrr done.

[Sharkn20]

Remember the Draft didn't start until yesterday with the end of the first round. The rest of the week was a 14 hour window to the whatever the GMs decided to do with their picks and have the time to select wisely. Now with the Draft oficially underway, GMs who miss their picks will lose 75% of the time allocated for their picks for the rest of the Draft.

You are up with the 2.2 don't let yourself down now!

Lol. I'm up. I'll pick soon!

[Matt]

Went with the big undeveloped guard Axel 'Rose'' Stephenson. Had him #9 overall on my big board so we're happy to get him in the 2nd.

[PikeStance]

I had him on my board as well. It came down to the LB Whited, the Guard or Sommer. Whichever of the two I did not pick would be gone within a few picks.
I was actually concerned that his numbers were not as good as they indicated. Switching to a 4-3 I felt like a needed more in the trenches. I already have two top class LBs.

[Sharkn20]

We went RB with the 2nd Round pick, a north-south bruising back with the ability to play all 3 downs! Looking forward to see if he can lose some weight in TC!

[irabowman]

I hope I never offend anyone when trading with anyone, If I feel someone makes me a fair offer in rds 2-7 I take it then and don't try to milk for something better. RD 1 is different or a player I really like I try get best offer possible. So hope I never offend anyone.

[PikeStance]

IMO, once you have made an agreement with someone, then it is binding. Anything else would be unethical. Plus, A public thread is the last place to find out that an agreement that you had made was broken.
The purpose of confirming is so that the Commissioner knows an agreement was made in private was in fact agreed to. The point between agreeing to a trade and posting the confirmation is not a window of opportunity to go back on a deal.

To paraphrase, trust is easier kept than recovered.

More pleasant discussion.... Why has the draft stopped? Shouldn't they be a "forever" clock up now?
