606v2 Mock Draft Contest

First topic message reminder :

I know we have our own fantasy mock going on at the moment, but I remember last year we had a mock draft contest too, with everyone doing their own mock of the first round and the idea was to see who did the best at the end. From what I remember, the scores were never totalled up, but I propose this year we do it again, and I promise to actually give final scores this year, as I will have the time around the draft.

Scoring System

Correct player on correct team at correct slot – 10 points
Correct player on correct team at incorrect slot – 5 points
Correct player on incorrect team at correct slot – 5 points
Player goes within 2 picks of guess – 2 points

To clarify this, if I say Matt Kalil is going to the Vikings at 3, but he goes to another team at 1st/2nd/4th/5th, then I get 2 points. If he was to go to the Vikings in a trade down at 5, I would get 5 points as per the above scoring system.

Trades

Predict correct team moving up/down – 5 points
Predict both trade partners – 10 points

To clarify this, if I have the Bills moving up to trade with the Buccs, and that happens I get 10 points. If the Bills move up to trade with the Jaguars I get 5 points. If the Buccs trade down with the Panthers I get 5 points. If the Bills move down or the Buccs move up, I get 0 points.

Positional scoring

2 points for correctly picking the position drafted

To clarify, if I have a team selecting Justin Blackmon at wide receiver, and they draft Michael Floyd, I would receive 2 points. I have divided the positions up as follows:

Quarterback
Running back
Receiver (WR or TE)
Offensive Tackle
Interior O Line (G or C)
Pass rusher (4-3 DE or 3-4 OLB)
Defensive Tackle (3-4 DE or 4-3 DT)
Linebacker (Non pass rusher)
Defensive back (Safety or Cornerback)

If there is enough interest in this then I will be happy to cover all scoring, if anyone has any suggestions on how to improve my scoring system then please give them! I thought it up in about 10 minutes so feel free to pull it to pieces .

Remember this is only for the first round, although you can have trades including later round picks but scores are not affected by what draft picks are traded.

If you could just let me know whether you would be up for doing this, then if enough people do one of the mods could put this up as a sticky post?

All entries need to be finalised by 9pm Thursday 26th April (UK time!)
