Once the real NFL draft is done, you'll tally up your own score, and post it here. You are responsible for doing your own correct math. The highest score will be verified.
 
Shame more people didn't sign up for this.

A grand total of -196 on 10 picks, for a final score of -19.6 per pick. Terrible fourth round for me. I was +12 per pick after day one.
 
1st Round
4 -- Brady Quinn, QB, Notre Dame (-18)
14 -- Amobi Okoye, DT, Louisville (+4)

2nd Round
56 -- Jason Hill, WR, Washington State (-30)

3rd Round
92 -- Marshall Yanda, OG, Iowa (+6)

4th Round
101 -- Scott Chandler, TE, Iowa (-28)
105 -- Doug Free, OT, Northern Illinois (-17)

5th Round

7th Round
206 -- Chad Nkang, OLB, Elon (-45)
214 -- Xzavie Jackson, DE, Missouri (-42)

Total: -172
Average: -19.1 per selection

Man, those 7th rounders killed me... Of course Brady Quinn had to slip to #22 ...
 
well you know, he wouldn't have dropped so far is a certain franchise at 9th knew how to draft...

There goes my schisno vote, j/k.

If that certain franchise wanted Quinn, knowing how to draft would mean they would have dropped back and selected him at 21. :wink:

A pretty awfull -416 (-34.6 per player!) although on the positive side i was +35.3 on steals. Guys going undrafted just kills you! coupled with Siler and Courtney taylor falling things didn't go so well!
 
I forgot to enter, but I did really good except for the FB I drafted. But I really didn't know what FBs there were. I wish I woulda drafted teh guy we got from Hawaii.
 
I was hoping for a greater response for this, because I am sure that someone in our league had a positive GM to NFL draft differential.

But so far the only eligible participants that I know of are:

@@@
Saint Greg
GridIronKing34
Marino2234
and myself - His'nBeatYour'n

The main prize will go to the best of those 5, with Grid in the lead with -19.1 per pick. There may be others who donated but didn't post in this thread that they were in the contest. If you donated, but I didn't include you, let me know I am giving Saint Greg, Marino2234 and other eligible GMs until midnight monday to submit their score.

If any other players did well, I'd love to see your score, though you won't be eligible for the prize.
 
I had some good values...particuarly Turk McBride in the 5th when he went in the 2nd. That was my last pick on the only one I went on value. The rest were filling holes. I had a couple UDFAs that killed my score. But when all of your picks are in the first 5 rounds and you have to fill specific holes, it's difficult to get value at each pick. I think I ended up with -36 in the end. I almost nailed the bradley and atkins picks.

1-25 - Dwayne Bowe, WR, LSU 1-23 +2
2-59 - Quinn Pit****, DT, Ohio State 3-98 -39
3-90 - Stewart Bradley, LB, Nebraska 3-87 +3
4-99 - Chris Leak, QB, Florida udfa -156
4-121 - Baraka Atkins, DE, Miami 4-120 +1
4-123 - Michael Johnson, S, Arizona 7-224 -101
5-150 - Tim Duckworth, G, Auburn udfa -105
5-155- Turk McBride, DT, Tennessee 2-54 +101
 
forgot to enter, but figured id throw out my selections anyways. the sartz, boss, and alford picks were big for me. the only big negative was kyle young in the 6th and echols in the 7th, who went undrafted. that hurt bigtime. but other than that, no real BIG losses/gains. the coe and echols picks werent made by me...just thought id throw that out there :D

It looks like Grid won with a score of -19.1 per pick, which is both terrible, and the best we could do. Congratulations.
 
Don't worry about the lack of phin dollars shown here. The GM prize is in the bank collecting interest. It's up over 21,000.
