Darn I had rams as my trade up team

 

I initially had the 49ers and was thinking about changing it to the Eagles.

 

This trade is also going to have a significant impact on my player picks. Browns at No.2? :dunno:

So do those questions now need to be answered for once the draft starts or they are free questions?

 

Nevermind i see your post.

I still think the Rams take Goff, thus not changing anything from the Browns' POV.

Probably wouldn't be fair to change any questions after the contest has already been open. :nono:

Here are my selections... for now...

 

1. QB Jared Goff
2. QB Carson Wentz
3. OL Laremy Tunsil
4. DL Joey Bosa
5. LB Myles Jack
6. DB Jalen Ramsey
7. DL DeForest Buckner
8. RB Ezekiel Elliott
9. DB Vernon Hargreaves
10. OL Ronnie Stanley

 

B1. Team to trade up: LAR
B2. Number of QB+WR+RB: 8
B3. Titans trade the No.1 pick: YES
B4. First team to draft a RB: MIA
B5. QB Paxton Lynch taken in Rd. 1: YES

 

The Chargers picks is a critical one. If they choose Jalen Ramsey (or someone else) that will start a bad domino effect.

Probably the least confident I've been in this contest (as far as the picks 1-10 go). I've waffled on the Chargers selection all week, but I think I'm sticking with Tunsil. Also, not so sure, Paxton Lynch goes in Round 1.

 

1. QB Jared Goff
2. QB Carson Wentz
3. OL Laremy Tunsil
4. DL Joey Bosa
5. DB Jalen Ramsey
6. OL Ronnie Stanley
7. DL DeForest Buckner
8. RB Ezekiel Elliott
9. DB Vernon Hargreaves
10. OL Jack Conklin

 

B1. Team to trade up: LAR
B2. Number of QB+WR+RB: 7
B3. Titans trade the No.1 pick: YES
B4. First team to draft a RB: MIA
B5. QB Paxton Lynch taken in Rd. 1: YES

Can't confirm your scores are correct but I think you've got the idea. I'll try and get the contest scored tomorrow. Considering I had Tunsil at No.3 and didn't have DAL as the first team to take an RB, I don't think I'm going to crack the top half.

OK, the preliminary results are posted. Check your scores. I'll likely wait a day to make them official in case anybody finds an issue with the scoring.

 

644 total entries.

 

Looks like we have a tie at the top, and our Doug Orth (TheFootballGuru) finished third! (His entry won't be counted towards the prize payout.)

And the streak continues. :ninja:

 

LOL. I typically don't do well in this thing either. The keys were avoiding Laremy Tunsil and getting Zeke Elliott at No.4 while naming DAL as the first team to take a RB. I couldn't do any of those things. <_<

T-24th. No t-shirt :(

 

ScottRhule is the real winner... the only guy I see near the top with Bosa at #3.

Basically no one saw that coming.

Ironically, I started at the bottom and worked my up looking for the first old school name I could recognize for the Mr Irrelevant award. At 450th...congrats!
