Rules:
- Everyone makes 8 picks - no more no less.
- You must list the players full name, position and spot you think they will be drafted at.
- You can only select one player per draft spot. Meaning you can’t list two different players to go at 2OA.
- You can make changes up until draft day and then a Mod will lock the thread.
- All incorrectly done drafts will be deleted.
- Please keep questions and comments out of this thread. Go to the draft discussion thread. See link below.
Example: 2OA - DL Tavon Walker DO NOT put down RD1 Walker Doing so will get your entry deleted.
Scoring system is the 5-3-1 scoring system. With bonus round points.
5pts - For each correct player selected.
3pts - If you select the correct player in the correct draft location. (Location example = 2OA)
1pts - bonus if you select the wrong player but right position in the correct draft location.
For arguments sake on position:
DL counts for Edge, and DT. Just put DL
DB counts for S and CB. Just put DB
OL counts for G, C and OT Just put OL
The max you could score per correct pick is 8pts.
So let’s say the Lions drafted QB Malik Willis at 2OA if you guessed this correctly you get 8pts
If you guessed 2OA QB - Kenny Pickett you get just 1pt.
But if you predicted the Lions traded down to 4OA - and took Willis you would get 5pts.
Then there’s a predict the correct round bonus.
If you select the correct player in the correct round regardless of position you get bonus points.
Round 1 = 1pt
Round 2 = 2pts
Round 3 = 3pts
Round 4 = 4pts
Round 5,6 &7 are worth 5pts each round.
Example: you had the lions trading down and taking Jermaine Johnson at 13OA and they take him any where in round 1 you get 1pt bonus.
Example: you correctly picked the Lions taking Chad Muma anywhere in round 3 you get 3pts bonus.
Example: you had correctly predicted the Lions drafting QB Jack Coan round 6 you get 5pts bonus.
So if you nail a later round pick then they are worth more than the earlier round picks.
The Lions draft current order is
Round 1- 2OA and 32OA
Round 2 - 34OA
Round 3 - 66OA and 97OA
Round 5 - 177OA
Round 6 - 181OA and 217OA
There’s discrepancy on wether or not the Lions have a 7th round pick. It doesn’t matter anyways because you only get 8 selections.
If you think the Lions will trade down and get more picks in rounds 4 and 5. Great but you still only get to count 8 picks. So use them wisely.
You do not have to predict the trade just the location the player is selected. So if you think the Lions are trading down to 9OA and getting an extra 2nd from Sea then make your picks at 9OA, and again at Seattle’s 40th OA pick.
Tie Breaker questions. Provide your answers to each one.
- How many offensive players will be drafted top 10 in the draft?
- How many defensive players will be drafted top 10 in the draft?

There’s a draft contest discussion thread. Ask your questions and make your comments there. Here’s the link if you want to discuss anything. Please keep all discussions out of this thread.
This thread will be locked for a short time until I can post an example draft - That way everyone has a guide to go off.
