    How should we set up this year’s draft game?

    $50 for winner or $25 for each winner up to 3 winners.

    I say let everybody make entries fir Top 4 pick. If one winner then winner gets $50. If more than 1 winner then each get $25 up to 3 winners. If more than 3 winners then do a drawing between winners to determine 3 winners

    Just saw this. I think if you do top 10, there will be less "winners"

    3 points for a 100% correct pick
    2 points if you miss the player/pick by 1 slot
    1 point if you miss the player/pick by 2 slots
    0 points if you miss the player/pick by more than 2 slots

    Example:

    Predicted Top 10:
    1- Murray
    2- Bosa
    3- Allen
    4- Q. Williams
    5- Devin White
    6- Jawaan Taylor
    7- TJ Hokenson
    8- Montez Sweat
    9- DK Metcalf
    10- Ed Oliver

    Actual Top 10:
    1- Murray= 3 points
    2- Q. Williams= 1 point
    3- Bosa= 2 points
    4- Allen= 2 points
    5- Devin White= 3 points
    6- Dwayne Haskins= 0 points
    7- TJ Hokenson= 3 points
    8- Montez Sweat= 3 points
    9- DK Metcalf= 3 points
    10- Ed Oliver= 3 points

    Total Points= 23 points

    This would almost certainly would limit how many win. Not to mention a little more fun. Top 10>Top 4

    We should predict how many 2019 draft selections are still on the team at the beginning of the 2020 season. We can split the prize money between the players that are cut or give them Dave and Busters vouchers to the equivalent value.

    6th round wide receivers are for life, not just for Christmas.

    Great idea but really very complicated. :)

    Completely agree. Perhaps just top 10 then and no points? If you do a top 4 game you are going to have too many winners I would think.

    If 1 winner give them a badge on their profile.
    If multiple winners congratulate them in a post.
    Donate the money to St.Judes regardless

    Sir,

    Not to be shallow but I already donate to St Jude's more than that monthly. :)

    Whoever breaks Dierking's nose will get a life time supply of beer from me.

    Brook - everyone picks who they think the Jets will draft, for the entire draft. If they pick who you predicted in round 1, you survive. If you get it wrong, you are out. Last man standing wins

    Winner gets $50 or a nice Tasbih bead necklace.

    I think BNs idea is a good one but I suspect everyone will be eliminated in Round Two. Guessing our third round pick will be nearly impossible. It may be made slightly easier if we guess after each round is complete.

    Sure brook!

    I pick:
    Nick Bosa OLB
    Lonnie Johnson CB
    Jalen Hurd WR
    Some guy
    Some guy, etc.

    Everyone else also makes their crappy picks ahead of the draft.

    The Jets take Bosa so I survive. Some people thought they were gonna get Josh Allen so they lose. The next day the Jets trade up into the second round - oh shit! But, they still take Lonnie Johnson so I survive! Nobody but me and you predicted that one, but on their next pick you had some lineman and they take Jalen Hurd. So I win. I get the prayer beads or $50, not sure yet which I would take

    Very good suggestion but difficult to keep track off BN? :( Any volunteers to be the commissioner?
