    Looks Good.

    Some other important info............there should NO talking about undrafted players.....I hope everyone understands why.

    There will be a pick's only Thread...no discussion in the pick's thread.

    When you make a pick.....Example......Player, Position and School
    and also........Bills (WW85) are OTC (for the next pick)
    .......then you PM that GM.

    I agree with everything. I like picking a random jets picker, also random teams. I like WW's idea that the person who picks has to PM the OTC person.

    That looks great to me.

    Will we pick our own teams or are we doing a random draw.

    I'm leaning towards random draw, I think it'll provide the best test of our abilities as GMs.

    I like random draw as well, then everyone can be a bit uncomfortable

    Sounds good. So who's on the GM list? I like the idea of having people who are here alot and not newcomers.

    Absolutely my friend, any mock draft you're running is a MUST JOIN for me :up:

    As for the rules, you're more than welcome GH .. they might seem a little harsh, and sometimes I relax it a little if I know someone is making a sincere effort, but over the years {and I've been doing that mock for five years running} I have found that the rules have to be harsh, it's how you separate the folks who are genuinely committed from the folks who are luke warm or could care less {which ruins it for others}, and eventually you wind up with all committed draftniks

    Our friend WW85 is a veteran of that mock draft now, and I know he'll agree it runs pretty smooth

    Random sounds good to me. Maybe throw up who you have so far as owners just so those who may want to get in on it can see if there's room. As far as trades go does it still go by the value chart?

    Trades would go as long as both teams agree... If we have trades...

    Absolutely agree with this rule, practically takes the fun out of it by naming the player and also ruins your chances of him dropping.

    If you would like, I would be willing to make another Picks Only thread, if you need any help with that.

    Which reminds me, I'm leaning toward no trades, just makes it a lot smoother. What do you guys think?

    ok guys...i wanna play too...i woulda posted at work earlier, but i wanted to read the whole thread b4hand...i'd like in if at all possible...also, i don't like multiple teams for the same person only cause it is a conflict of interest...more fun if everyone chooses a side and plays the game...oh yeah, and i would like to nominate jasonjets and james hasty as co-mishes cause they were all up on the last ones.
