David Harris Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Hi guys, recognize a lot of you over here. Glad to be a member. Sorry to be the noob but is there a specific Draft Forum over here? Or is all discussion on the main board? Thanks for the heads up. Looking forward to midnight like the rest of you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxman Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 I think I am going to try a draft forum. We have never done things that way before but with free agency here there is going to be a lot of NFL News. Many people have requested a forum for mocks and stuff like that. Plus we will have some draft articles coming soon...so I think it makes sense to break it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoachTsurfing Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 Grrrr. I don't normally like to see that, but I've been such a big fan of this sight if the powers at be want it, so be it. I like to see just a free flowing abudance of info. Then I can pick and choose what i want to look at and what i want to pass on. But either way, no worries. Go Jets!!!

Well, honestly, I just want to do what the majority wants. The volume is a lot higher and my concern is that the mocks will get in the way. But I could go either way (hey now). I am not sure what the majority really want -- I hear both sides. If others could chime in with some thoughts I would appreciate it. Like I said, we aren't married to either. We just want to make the most people as possible happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadwayJoe12 Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 I like the idea of having a place solely to talk about the draft, but as already mentioned, it's nice to have the free flowingness that jetnation has. Would it be possible to have a draft forum that could have it's own threads in it?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would it be possible to have a draft forum that could have it's own threads in it?? What I was thinking was a sub-forum right under this one just for the draft. New threads, posts etc. But I will wait until we get some more feedback. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Harris Posted February 27, 2009 Author Share Posted February 27, 2009 I'm all for draft forums but I'm a noob here so don't want to come in breaking windows. I'm an advocate because I've found they often lend themselves to excellent football discussion. Very knowledgable posters trading thoughts and opinions on prospects. The problem with having these threads on the main board is that they often get buried by the volume, but in their own forum you can come back to them often as there is less traffic and the same threads are just as relevant a week or two later as the draft process moves along and guys' value shifts up and down. Just my 2 cents, enjoy the site very much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gas2No99 Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 I think there should be a TEMPORARY forum more directed at discussing NFL draft prospects and highlights leading UPTO the draft. I do agree that actual Personal Mock Drafts tend to clutter up the discussion on viable college players to draft and team draft needs, and probably deserves it's own sub-forum. But as posted earlier by someone, the overall free flow of information is nice and easy so that should be maintained as an asset compared to similar websites. Thus, having TEMPORARY draft prospects and mock draft forums up until the Monday after Draft weekend. Just a suggestion. This place is cool David Harris, nice to see you here. The cool part about this site is that there's no Frat Boy raking here like other places. Newbies are just like everyone else. Welcome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZachEY Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 David Harris has a hot wife. And a draft forum would probably be a decent idea as mock drafts become overly plentiful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen the Red Wings win 4 cups in 11 years and the Jets win nothing in that same time. Deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faba Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 We have a number of people that are intense in college player evaluations so it is a good idealeading up to April draft. Good work Max to decide on this and not copy other websites out there in format. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxman Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 what a pancake eating flip-flopper I can honestly say that I crack up when I read posts like this. Must be because I am Irish, insults kind of get me through the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neckdemon Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 i think a draft forum isn't bad idea as long as it doesn't turn into a situation where you can't have a draft thread or even a mock or 2 on the main forum without it being moved and subsequently scolded. this way a majority of the draft only talk could be on it's own forum but we could still have a couple draft threads on the main board to discuss also.
