NFL Forum Mock FA + Draft

[Brothgar]

I am thinking of doing a mock FA and draft I will take charge of it and would like to see if there is any interest. This is a little experimental but I'm sure I could pull it off.

If there are any questions PM, IM, or post them.

FYI this would be how FA would work.

- Time limit 1 week.

- I will take many factors into account and will really take it on a player by player basis. Things I take into account include but are not exclusive to. Money, Age, Players SB, Teams Chances for a SB, Ability for player to start and the list goes on.

- For the more desirable FAs they will likely be signed after 3 days unless I have a bidding war.

- Everyone will be held to cap numbers at the time of this post.

To find player cap number as a basic idea you can go here

to find specific numbers you go here

Draft and trades

- All trades are accepted given that the cap works out.

- I will be using the NFLPA site to get cap hit numbers.

- Draft Picks must be signed

+For the 1st overall pick you need 3.6 Mil in cap space.

+You subtract 7% for each subsequent pick till you hit the league minimum which I think is 150k.

- Like I said I will not be in control any teams so your draft boards will be safe with me.

- I WILL SKIP PICKS

- I haven't thought of a clock system yet but I have a week+ to think of one if there is enough interest.


To sign up post the team you want. As soon as we start I will give each team the official cap numbers

Teams are below there will be a name by teams once they are taken.

No this isn't the official forum mock. I'm pretty sure that the forum mock will not include FA. This is something I'm gonna do on the side.

Well it looks like there is no interest anyway considering it is't an official forum mock. As to why do it now well I just wanted to see how smoothly it would work and to let my fellow forum people to play GM put out some sort of real life scenario.

Sorry it is taking longer than I'd hoped to get this thing off the ground but I wanted to make sure it wasn't going to get locked/deleted.. I've started to post a link in other teams boards hopefully that'll get some more people in.

Crap,eagles are taken.Nevermind then since this doesnt seem to be going anywhere.

[fenikz]

if this happens ill be the Cardinals and other teams later if we need to fill them

[rockio42]

Can I do the Tampa Bay Buccaneers?

[Brothgar]

Ok I'm going to give it another two or three days if anyone wants a second team speak up but I will start FA on Wednesday or Thursday and I will give you your cap and the cap you would need for each of your current draft picks. As for unclaimed teams I will keep FA to players that there are rumours for the team to take. Draft picks will be made by a draft simulator (which one I'm not going to say but I'm going to use one). Even after FA starts if anyone wants to take over a team as long as it isn't already taken it is yours.

[fischbowl]

Bills!!!!!! :)

[skinzzfan25]

I'll take the Skins.

I've never done a fantasy draft here before :P
