it never really is, i know ESPN usually has an update for it on a ticker at the bottom of the screen. i have NFL network though, so well see
There's a lengthy thread on this already, I believe that CAKES gave a very solid explanation. Search away via the search bar- it's probably about 10 pages back by this point.
If you want a player you offer a draft pick in next years draft that you are willing to give up for that player....then somehow the team that makes the best offer gets the player.....where that pick goes and how they choose between teams that offer a pick in the same round...I don't know...
Players in Supplemental Drafts are those who did not enter the regular draft in April because they have some sort of college eligibility issues. They may have thought they were still eligible to play college football later that year and then a few months later they find out they are ineligible. Almost always there is an academic or disciplinary problem and the player cannot go back to college football, so he enters the NFL Supplemental Draft. In the 2006 Supplemental Draft, the same draft order applies as in the regular April draft. The Jets will be 4th again. They do not have to bid on Jason Berryman or Ahmad Brooks. They can just say to heck with both of them. For argument’s sake, let’s suppose the Jets want Brooks. The Jets might decide he’s worth a 4th rounder. The Jets would submit a 4th round bid to the commissioner. If no other team places a better bid, the Jets would be awarded Brooks. The Jets would then lose their 2007 4th round selection. A couple examples- RB Tony Hollings was taken by the Houston Texans in the second round of the Supplemental Draft in 2003. In the 2004 NFL Draft, the Texans forfeited a second round pick. The Jets selected WR Rob Moore from Syracuse in the first round of the 1990 Supplemental Draft. Therefore, the Jets forfeited their 1991 first round draft selection. This year the Supplemental Draft will probably be conducted on July 13.
Do the other teams know what all of the other teams are bidding? Does it come down to a bidding war, or do the Jets submit a bid blindly and hope they bid high enough?
The supplemental draft is done with blind bidding and on a conference call.. there is nothing to televise.
thanks now it makes more sense...........does anyone think we r going for anyone?????? and what position is Ahmad Brooks???
Liar, you don't fool me. We all know that he's the best longsnapper to come out of college in years!!!
As an upper-class snob from Long Island, I resent the redneck implication! You're insulting me and my fellow snobs when you put us in the same boat as AtlantaMike. Have at you man! And listen, find a sense of humor while you're at it- it's a SLLLLLLLLLLLLLOW time of the year around here and we're pretty much waiting for paint to dry until the end of the month.
My money says "no"- that he doesn't fit the Mangini mold we are seeing. If I'm a betting man I would say that Oakland takes him with their 2nd...
