@VikingsFanInChennai I got one from Drafttek. It took some time to remove the table formatting but I was able to do it. The Big Boards are so different.

 

I created another thread with the Big Board and the draft order that you posted.  I will add your Big Board as an alternative. 

 

( @John Hammonds  What do you think of the rankings on the Big Board above? )

I have no problem with it.  It's not about which one is "right" but rather which one is most easily translated into this format.  If it works better, it works better.

I was able to translate the Drafttek one earlier in the day. I can share some of it now but I have it in another thread that I will open later.

 

I thought about having the Big Board on the same thread as the actual mock draft. Then folks will not go from thread to thread -- they can just look on the first page to find the list of prospects as well as the list of who is assigned to what team. Let's see how that works out for the first round. If that works, I will keep all the rounds on one thread. It seems like it will be easier for me to manage by myself. 

 

Here are the first 30 prospects that Drafttek has ranked:

Doesn't matter which one we use, as long as we use the same one over and over, to reduce confusion.

Okay, refresh and see my last comment that I added to.

 

I already created the thread with the Drafttek one. I did it early yesterday (it is hidden).

 

If most people will be using their mobile phones to access the thread, I might use the one that @VikingsFanInChennai put up. On my mobile, that one looks cleaner. I will work on it later.

Here you go. At LINK to Draft, you will find the actual Mock Draft that will start tomorrow at 7PM EDT.  The rules, Big Board, and the Draft Order  are included. 

 

Have a great Sunday and Happy Holidays!

Just a question. Are we picking the guy we think will be picked, or the guy we would pick? I think I know who the Jags might pick #1, but I'm inclined to pick another guy, who I see as a BPA at a position of greater need.

It is up to you, but it should be who you think they should pick. Who do you think is the best player for them, regardless of who is believed to be the guy.

You are the GM

You can pick Punter for Jags if you wanted 

[Kangaroo]

Didn't they pick a punter in rd 3 a couple of years ago?

 

I think that there will be no trading up for #1 this year--it's not as if there's really a super standout QB that teams are desperate for

Yeah, I heard this year is not great for QBs.

 

Did you see the thread with the Mock Draft? Let me know if everything makes sense.

I asked him and DefJamz in a thread but neither replied. CR91 is not interested this year. I thought maybe @shasta01 (or is it @shasta519) may be interested in playing. I am not sure if he was alerted. @PureLuck used to play but I have not seen him on the forum in a while.  There are many people that I have not seen. Do you ever see Coltsfan_12? He was almost as big here as Gavin was.

 

I will snag a team. Doesn't matter which onel

Fantastic! We still have the Bears, Cardinals, Bucs and 49ers who need GMs. The Bears and 49ers do not have first round picks. The Cardinals and the Bucs will make First Round draft picks tomorrow.  Would you like one of them? You can choose your preference.

 

Thank you. 

[Zoltan]

To give a hint at my pick for the Steelers, it is almost to perfect to not choose a player that's already broken records in Pittsburgh.

 

Also just want to say thanks to @NFLfan for setting all this up, I know it's a lot of work to get it organized and keeping it moving

I think it's a little too early to pick CB Damarri Mathis from Pittsburgh in the middle of the first round. But what do I know? 

[NFLfan]

@shasta519 Would you like to pick for the Bucs or the Cardinals?

I would love to I watched for years as a guest and finally signed up to post and have always wanted to do this 

 

I was looking back and noticed that you expressed interest in participating in this Mock draft. We are in the 3rd round now. Are you still interested? I believe I asked you before but never heard back. 

[EastStreet]

@NFLfan

 

Big apologies for being a sucky Colts fan lately lol. 

Just short on time, and if I'm honest, short on optimistic direction. 

 

You are absolutely the best to rally the exercise!!
