Hello gentlemen - very long time lurker here. Hope this finds everyone well in these difficult times.

The draft is my favourite time of year. This year is going to be especially awesome give all the picks we have. Mocks are ok but unrealistic. I always much prefer pretending to be the GM after the event and decide who i would have taken at each spot and seeing if mine turns out better. It is fair to say results are usually mixed :cool:

i thought we could play together - post the picks you would have made and a couple of years down the line we can look back and anoint a Finheaven draft guru for the person who drafted the best in that year.

Rules are you can either pick at the positions the team had immediately before the draft or, if trades are made, at all of those actual spots. No mixing and matching and no pretend trades. Any benefits (eg picks for the following year) will be factored in when deciding who did best.

Have fun and take care.

I believe that men from Mars have taken over London fin fan. Look out for Saturnites and Jupitoians.
Most of the Uranasses are on the Purdue board.

Brees went to Purdue and so did Griese. the Brees effect for this draft is on.
 
Great idea OP.

After the draft this place is gonna be a hot mess of people upset and you're going to provide them a therapeutic way to deal with it. :lol:

I'll definitely participate. Sounds like fun.

Were not doing pre-mock drafts ill. Re-read the OP.

We are waiting until after the draft is OVER and then using that data to make our picks ;)

I think its brilliant OP, because many of us feel very strongly about these players. This gives people an actual legitimate way to say "I told you so." They can't point to the 1 of 100 pre-mocks or posts they made...they can only point to the 1 post-draft mock. Its like officially "going on record." And because of your rules, people can't live in the realm of fantasy...they have to use the same data and the same choices the Dolphins did.

Love it. This should be a thing every year!

Sorry to Pu fans. I am really losing it with this shelter in place, day 27 here. Purdue had an amazing QB factory for many years. Len Dawson, Ron Degravio, Mark Herman, Phipps, Campbell, etc. And of course the greaser and Brees.
I live in the French quarter and Drew is so well liked he could be governor if he chose.

Solid list of names...although I think there are a few players who are either underrated here or over rated.
 
OK, I've been lookin forward to this!! Thank you OP for this awesome thread.

The FINHEAVEN 2020 DRAFT CONTEST! Choose who YOU would have drafted!

RULES:

You must choose whether you are picking from our original draft picks or final draft picks. You can't do both. The only exception is you can choose not to trade for Matt Breida at pick #153...I don't think someone who chooses a rookie RB should be forced into this trade. Instead, you can choose a player at pick #153.

You choose the players who would have been available at the time of our pick selection. That means if you want a Tristan Wirfs, a Ceedee Lamb, etc...then your only option is to select them at pick #5.

You cannot take players who we actually selected at later positions (e.g. Robert Hunt @ pick 56.) If you want that player - you have to select them where we did. We have no way of telling where they would have fallen.

Have fun and in a couple years this will be really interesting to see the results.
