Dr. T Contest Results

[Dr. T]

A lot of people guessed that the Colts would not trade the #4 pick and many also picked Anthony Richardson there at #4 as an A, B or C selection. But so far, two contestants stand out:

 

Stitches picked no trade and Richardson and Brents as A picks at #4 and #35 (although we traded out of 35). Anyhow Stitches leads after day two with 8 points.

 

However, Craigerb picked no trade and was also correct with all three picks: Richardson, Downs and Brents, although the points were not maximized due to slotting with 7 points (according to the rules). Wow! Regardless, I think that everyone must admit that this is impressive!

 

Let's see if anyone can catch up today! There are many possible picks ahead. Good luck everybody!

I messed up by removing Freeland and the Northwestern DT from my 2nd entry, joke is on me  

 

@craigerb also got Freeland, just FYI @Dr. T

 

Good job so far @craigerb

[Dr. T]

Well ... THE RESULTS ARE IN!!

 

And the winner of the 2023 Dr T Colts Draft Contest is ...

 

Solid84 with 12.5 points!! Congrats!

 

Solid84 correctly chose no trade of #4 and picked Richardson, Brents, Rush, Scott and Witt

 

Tied for second this year - both with 11 points - are Archer and Stitches.

Archer also picked no trade of #4, Richardson, Brents, Rush, Scott and Witt, but not quite slotted as well as Solid84. Dang!!

Stitches (who was winning after round 3) wound up correctly choosing no trade of #4 and picked Richardson, Brents, Rush, and Witt, but missed out on Daniel Scott (although did incorrectly pick Tyler Scott, the WR from Cincy!! Oh no!)

 

Anyway, congrats again to Solid84 and we will all try again next year ...

Congratulations @Solid84 and our runner ups @Archer and @stitches.

 

I was happy myself getting 3 correct but abstaining cost my an extra point.  Now need to look up and see whom we got as UDFAs.  Surprised again at how many players fell.

[Solid84]

Oh wow, I won! 

 

Thanks for doing this @Dr. T it was great fun! Looking forward to next years contest.

I’m kicking myself for third guessing myself, lol. My 2nd entry had Adebotowa and Blake Freeland. I’d have gotten 5 players right. Oh well!!! Ifs and buts…  

 

Congrats to @Solid84 @Archer and @stitches

 

Next year, I’ll try sticking with 1 entry lol

I was about to make a 4th (!!) version of my entry, but decided I might have gone a bit overboard. 

[stitches]

Congrats to @Solid84. Great prediction. In general this year was really hard to win, a lot of people guessed a lot of prospects correct, so fully deserved 1st place for Solid...

I know what you mean.  I looked at my entry and was amazed that I didn’t put Freeland in there.  He was in most of my mock drafts…

I got the same five right, but in fewer right spots…  Congrats, I want to win this again before I die… ;)

[DougDew]

Yeah, a lot of people probably had Brents, Downs, and Freeland in their mocks but ended up not putting them in this mock.  I have been on the Jaylon Jones train since February, but thought other players were better candidates in the mid rounds than Jones.  He got drafted in the 7th round, and I never expected him to be there.

 

Congrats to the winner.  Slotting players in the correct round is tough.
