I sure did enjoy playing when I did, but I enjoyed being with my friends on the team, working together the most. I wasnât gifted, but I worked hard, and man I fed off the energy from the fans in the stands.
There is NOTHING like absolutely DESTROYING some little stick, seeing that ball tumble out, and taking it to the house for 6. They should have timed my 40 then, because I guarantee no one was catching me. And I can still hear the fans roaring. I can close my eyes and still feel the thunder.
Nothing like a cold November practice in the rain and mud either, getting ready to close out the year and turn in your pads, and you make the best catch of your life during a team scrimmage that no one else sees.
I surely did enjoy playing the game though, even when I was on the wrong end of the hits I liked to dish out. I miss those days, kinda, but Iâm having such a blast with my boys that I wouldnât trade it for DeShaun Watsonâs contract.
So Iâm going to predict a trade down in the first, which picks up an extra 2nd. Essentially, whoever my pick is at 194 wonât count towards the total. I believe I have this right. And if I donât, thatâs perfectly fine, and Iâll still enjoy this contest. Thank you, always, for doing this.
Youâre making liberal use of the rule to change your mock until the last minute. Wish I would have thought of that.
My mock is probably in final form right now, but I could have a vision or two before next Wednesday when Iâll post, so Iâll wait.
This is important. Winning the Official Den Mock Draft Contest could be a life changing event. I might splurge on Big Mac one night instead of a McDoubleâŚ
So if I select Bryce Young to go 6OA to Detroit and he goes 6OA to Detroit, shouldnât the scoring be.
5pts - For each correct player selected.
3pts - If you select the correct player in the correct draft location. (Location example = 6OA)
If you select the correct player in the correct round regardless of position you get bonus points.
Round 1 = 1pt
