This is a game where you predict not only the position picked but the total number of picks. The Cowboys currently have 10 picks set up as follows:
1 - 1
2 - 1
3 - 1
4 - 3
5 - 2
6 - 1
7 - 1
4 of those are comp picks but are not prohibited to be traded as in the past. So everything is available for a move up or down or future picks.
Here's how this will be scored and you can only have one post that I will count and I will start from the last prediction post and work my way back so if you would note that your last one is your FINAL, that will help. I realize we can't go back and edit so I will just take your last one as your entry. It would help if you only put your prediction in the post and not start any discussions as there are more potential players on the Zone than DC.com where I did this last year.
The draft categories are: QB, RB, OL, WR, TE, DL, LB, DB, P and PK. The DL, OL and secondary are combined so you do not have to stipulate the specific position for those. And this is about the current position of the player drafted, not where he might end up.
Points are awarded as follows:
Correct # of picks executed 10 points
Exact # of trades 10 points
Pick correctly between trade up, down or stay in the 1st 10 points
Correct prediction of the positions taken 1 - 7 10 points per correct prediction
Perfect score is 100 points. Easy to play because you do not have to pick the actual player or even the rounds, it is just picks 1-7 and the other criteria. I am not going beyond 7 picks because that evens the playing field should they give up some of those in trades. I cannot see them going less than 7.
Deadline is 3pm Central time on April 26, day 1 of the draft.
I will post the winner and their score and the next 4 runners up and theirs by Monday following the end of the draft. We had fun with this last year and this year is even more intriguing with 10 picks and in that mid round 1 "anything can happen" slot at 19. Plus we have an "anything can happen" GM. Tie breaker was going to be pick the number of draft picks injured, suspension prone or incarcerated and due for parole by camp but I decided that if we have a tie, those tied will predict the number of picks that make the team. Still tied, pick the players that made it.
If your predictions are all screwed up, please do not blame your gracious scorekeeper, blame the FO as we always do. I, as always, am on your side.
