chad72 Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 @VikingsFanInChennai how does next week sound for starting it? Do we need any 2nd teams for GMs to fill in the blanks? Let us know. Looking forward to it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike06181 Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 On 3/5/2024 at 4:26 AM, VikingsFanInChennai said: We're hoping to conduct our own forum's annual Gavin's Mock Draft for the year 2024 in April. It will be a 5-round mock draft this year that we all could participate typically around 3 hours every day in the evening for a week and few more days. Anyone who has not participated in last year's mock draft or earlier is very welcome to join on the fun. Participants can state the NFL team that they'd like to represent this year as their GM. Colts GM will be selected by a Lucky Draw using random generator as we did last year, among all the GMs who join one will get to represent Colts. Last year's participants listed below, can you please confirm if you'd like to be part of the Mock Draft this year? @ColtsGermany @Yoshinator (formerly Jared Cisneros - Damn, my phone still remembers) @coltsfanej @danlhart87 @Mike06181 (Lions fan presumably wishing to select for Lions) @CR91 @El Potro @crazycolt1 @runthepost @RNGDShobby @Archer @John Hammonds @TomDiggs @NFLfan @Defjamz26 @PureLuck @chad72 @RollerColt @SaturdayAllDay If you know any one else would be willing to join this year mock draft, please let them know and ask them to inform their interest here. @tweezy32 are you willing to join this year? Dang i missed the mention! Love to do lions but if they are already gone i will take whoever is left. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VikingsFanInChennai Posted March 26 Author Share Posted March 26 Sorry guys, it got busy for me and was out of station for a bit. Is April 2nd evening 6 PM ET okay for everyone? Should it start a little later if most of you're in Central time zone or in West? I don't want it to drag on to late night as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does 6 PM EDT work fine for the start for everyone, or is that too early? We can keep it at 7 pm to 10 pm ET, just have to let folks know to PM their picks, that is what it is for. Since slots are scheduled (say my Detroit Lions pick at No.29 pick at the 29 * 5 minutes (145th minute with 5 minutes between picks for each Round). Say folks are quick and my time comes up after 120 minutes (2 hours), I still get till the 145th minute, IMO. Is that how you were planning? That way, you have 1 Round and only 1 Round done during an evening. Everyone gets to evaluate trades, players available etc. before they show up the next day for Round 2. We can do Rounds 1 to 4 on April 2nd to April 5th, and then re-evaluate from there about weekend availability. 32 picks each evening with 5 minutes between picks, so 160 minutes tops i.e. 2 hours and 40 minutes done by 9:40 pm ET. PM if you know you are going to be busy when your time comes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PM if you know you are going to be busy when your time comes. Yes, we'll keep the 5-minute time slot for each pick, and it will keep me busy with updating picks and trades and slot changes, so even if guys draft fast one after another, we could only go only so much faster. It'll be okay to have 5 minute slot for everyone, and if someone is not available until their slot, we can wait and after that assign BPA, if they'd not sent in their choices via PM. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
