2019 Colt Freaks Draft Contest

[Chromeburn]

So time for the draft contest again. After the best draft in Colts history, maybe the best single team draft ever. (Ok maybe I’m biased) Time to see what Ballard and company does next. What’s it going to be in the first? DT, SS, WR... maybe OLine? Put your best guesses, it’s draft week.

Try to keep conversation out of the thread till the draft starts.

I will use the same rules Sherck set up on previous contests. See them below.

If the Colts DO trade a draft pick, I will try to grade the draft choices as close as possible to the original pick. For instance, the Colts trade the #26 pick overall for the #38 pick overall plus another 3rd round pick. In that case, if no other trades occur, then the #26 overall pick will be graded with the #34 overall selections and the 2nd and 3rd round pick will be ignored since we did not submit picks against it EXCEPT to score the categories of “player picked but in a different round.”

Submit 3 choices for each draft selection:

Round 1, (#26 overall)
Choice A = 10 points
Choice B = 7 points
Choice C = 5 points

Round 2, (#34 overall)
Choice A = 7 points
Choice B = 5 points
Choice C = 3 points

Round 2, (#59 overall)
Choice A = 7 points
Choice B = 5 points
Choice C = 3 points

Round 3, (#89 overall)
Choice A = 5 points
Choice B = 4 points
Choice C = 3 points

Round 4, (#129 overall)
Choice A = 5 points
Choice B = 4 points
Choice C = 3 points

Round 4, (#135 overall)
Choice A = 5 points
Choice B = 4 points
Choice C = 3 points

Round 5, (#164 overall)
Choice A = 5 points
Choice B = 4 points
Choice C = 3 points

Round 6, (#199 overall)
Choice A = 5 points
Choice B = 4 points
Choice C = 3 points

Round 7, (#240 overall)
Choice A = 5 points
Choice B = 4 points
Choice C = 3 points

UDFA: Write down 5 names. Score 1 point each if we sign any of them. Score 2 points (like below) if we draft one of them (wrong round).

ADDITIONAL SCORING:

1 point = If you predict a Colts trade
2 points = If you predict a Colts trade AND the correct trade partner and slot

2 points = Player selected is in your “choice matrix” somewhere (i.e. OLB Tim Williams is the Colts selection for our 3rd round pick. You had indicated that OLB Tim Williams was your C Choice for the 2nd round. You would score 2 points for having written his name down somewhere on your selection matrix.).

1 point = Pick the correct position of the player selection (i.e. your choices for the 3rd round pick are: A Choice = CB Jimmy John, B Choice = ILB Bobby Button and C Choice= S Tommy Tutu. The actual choice is CB Billy Barns. You would score 1 point because you had the correct position as one of your choices.).

All picks are FINAL as of 7:59pm on Thursday, 25 April 2019 Eastern Standard Time.

No changing later round picks based on whom we selected in earlier rounds.

Have fun, Colts Freaks. GO BALLARD!
