Post Combine Forum Mock Draft

[mayoclinic]

How do people want to play the Patriots pick? A seperate thread with a poll question? If so, how long to leave the vote open? Or, and I think this might be better, keep it in this thread - list a number of prospects and the first one to get seven votes is the pick. What do people think?

A suggestion:

1. Have people list their top 3 options. 5 points for 1st spot, 3 for 2nd, 1 for 3rd.
2. First player who gets to 50 points wins.

It's a bit more complicated, but it would give more information about people's thoughts.

Is anyone going to make the KC pick? Ok, I will go with wr Brandin Cooks, coming off his impressive time at the combine.

Bengles are on the clock!!!

Bengals take Bradley Robey, CB, Ohio St.

San Diego is on the clock.

My only issue with this is that it would need to be managed. I think it's a great idea but I'm only going to be around for another hour or two. Would you be up for managing the process? Other than my one reservation, I like the idea.

I agree with Mayo's suggestion except that 50 points seems high seeing as only about 7 people have taken part in the thread thus far.

San Diego selects David Yakney, Guard , Stanford

I can try. We're close to the Pats' pick, so I'm assuming we'll settle it in the next 2-3 hours.

I used 50 based on Manx's 7 prediction (7x5=35) plus assuming that a lot of the guys who were in the running would get 2nd or 3rd place votes. But I'm willing to settle for a lower threshold. Also, I assume some people who haven't played will eventually weigh in - OTG, MHTK, etc. But if you want a lower number, I'm ok with it.

Cleveland Browns select Odell Beckham (and can't believe he's still available). The Saints are OTC

Barr was selected at #11.

 

[manxman2601]

We're also going to need to get nominations for the Patriots pick. I'll suggest Brandin Cooks and Ryan Shazier.

Phew. I thought I was going to have to include a WR in my top 3 for the Pats.

Cooks is off the board to Cleveland.

I second Shazier. Other options still available include DE Kony Ealy and DE/DT Stephon Tuitt. Remarkably, I believe that Zach Martin is still on the board.

 

[manxman2601]

Cooks was picked already.

Yup. Just seen that. Thanks.

Jace Amaro will have to be considered and Kyle Fuller (wink, wink, nudge nudge everybody )

Why take nominations? Let anyone put in their top 3, and go from there.
