Jetsfan80 Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 Just an FYI for the Round 2 format. It'll be a straight-forward 16-team tournament. Because of how we eliminated teams in the 1st round, there's no risk that I can see of two teams meeting who have already faced each other. If somehow that does occur, we'll adjust accordingly. The standings I posted above will be reflected in the seedings.

Long Island Leprechaun Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Definitely take up Paradis's idea of adding one sub offensive and one sub defensive player for next year's draft. Also, shorten the time... most guys who are paying attention get on pretty quickly. Those that don't can just pick when they show up. Also consider setting the cutoff for players available only to players from 1960 or so onward. Would even be more interesting to make it a specific decade or two decades so there's some parity among players and we could imagine them actually playing together. Another possibility for a speed draft would be to give each drafter a specific team and have them construct their roster from that team only -- any player from 1960 onward. Assignment could be random.ized. Each drafter gets one day to put it together and submit. Then play them off in brackets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I sincerely doubt there will be a draft next year. Even with these rule changes in place, it wouldn't make much sense to do it in back-to-back years. Better to wait several years as new talent rises up the ranks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we can do it next year, but maybe limit to a specific decade -- clearly the guys who went with the real old timers are not getting the votes. And get started in June when not much is going on. I think there would be alot more interest andmore discussison if we are not competing with training camp. Having a draft limited to, say players who played in the 90s, would be different enough from this year. I would probably also limit to 16 -- makes the brackets work better and it is easier to find 16 folks who stay engaged than 24. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Less people, the ones that were here and involved and I’d definitely say put a date limit. No one here for the most part ever seen some of these people play other then a 15 second black and white clip. We did one years ago and you had to also draft a special team player and HC, OC and DC.

#27TheDominator Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Date limits, or other limits. Something like no HOF players would totally change things and skew more modern. sh*t I would do one with only players that have played in other leagues. USFL **** yeah! The limits might reduce interest which wouldn't be super bad if we want to reduce the numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would certainly limit interest... you might get at two people who'd waste their time with that draft. LOL. I'm still thinking a franchise based draft would be fun. Pick or be assigned an NFL team. Construct a roster of any players who were active from 1970 to the present and post (maybe within a couple of days). Set up brackets and poll to determine winner. Would have to be rules for players that moved across teams (preference given to team for which player played the most years, or the such). Could also include coaches, some special teams, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting feedback, What we could do next year, like Lith said, was start earlier in June -- and put a theme on it to avoid redundancy. No power 5 players (lulz), decades, conferences, no HOF, only UDFAs (lol ok maybe not that one) -- but yea, that would keep it fresh and interesting. Also, agree - feel like 16 is a good number. If you planned in advance, you could flirt with just doing in a night, 3 min clocks on the pick. Doable with 16 people if interest and flexibility were there.

Jetsfan80 Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 The @Paradis and @Dunnie matchup has concluded. Barring a massive comeback by nyjunc in his matchup with Ballin, both Paradis and Dunnie are in for Round 2, with Dunnie as the 16-seed.

Jetsfan80 Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 @Lith and @Paradis I won't be around to post matchups this weekend, so I will need some assistance. I will be posting the # 5 @Patriot Killa-# 12 @Jetlife33 matchup later this afternoon, but beyond that I won't be able to post any further matchups until Monday. We could potentially wrap up Round 2 over the weekend. I think we should shoot for something like this for the remaining schedule: Weekend: Wrap up Round 2. Monday-Tuesday: Quarterfinals (2 matchups per day) Wednesday-Thursday: Semi-Finals (1 matchup each day rather than 2) Friday-Saturday OR Saturday-Sunday OR Sunday-Monday: Championship (48-hour matchup) Since the Jets' first preseason game is Friday night we might need to take that day off completely and start the championship on Saturday or Sunday.
