Stampede Blue Community Mock Draft: You're On The Clock!
Once again it's that time of the year for all of you to participate in everyone's favorite pastime between the Super Bowl and the NFL Draft, a Mock Draft! We've done this the past several years, and I dropped the ball last year in getting only one round in, so we're going to get a full two rounds, plus the Colts pick at #65.
How do you join in the fun? Here's how it'll work:
- Each person is only allowed 1 team, as we have plenty of people here on the site to fill all the teams. Also, anyone who says "Give me any team" won't get a team. Be decisive, please. Also, in order to draft for the Colts, you have to have been a member at Stampede Blue for 2 years. I want to take care of our longer term members for the Colts pick. There are no restrictions on any other team.
- In addition to selecting one team, this year I'm also taking a back-up selector for each team in the off chance the original person doesn't get back to me. Again, only one team as a backup please.
- The draft will be done through email. This is the easiest way to do it, as getting 30 people together at one time is extremely hard.
- You will have 24 hours after I send you the email saying you are on the clock to make a pick. If no pick comes in, I'll go right to the backup, so don't be late.
- I will be posting two picks per day during the week, and one pick on each weekend day. IMPORTANT: The draft via email will (hopefully) be about 4 or 5 picks ahead of what is on the site, and I will include those picks in the "On the Clock" email. Please don't wait until you see all the picks before yours on the site, as it'll be way too late for you to make a pick.
The information I'd like for each pick is:
- Player, Position, School
- One or two paragraphs on why said player is the right choice for that team. Can include comments about best player available, scheme fit, you hate the team so that's why you picked that awful player, etc. I want a rationale.
- One to two sentences on how much of an impact you think he will have next season.
Be aware that we do not need anyone for the Raiders, as they've decided they didn't want to pick in the first four rounds this year, and the Falcons and Saints only have second round choices.
I'd highly recommend using Mocking the Draft and National Football Post for information on team needs, player profiles, etc. We'll also have quite a few here at Stampede Blue for you to look at.
After the jump you'll see the CONFIRMED LIST of drafters for each team. Please indicate which team you'd like in the comments, and also send me an email stating which team you would like, and your SB Nation username. You will not be confirmed until I receive an email from you. You also must post in this thread your team choice(s). I want to ensure everyone who participates is a member here at Stampede Blue. We'll be starting Monday morning, so whoever picks the Colts should be ready to go. Also, please look at the table, and the comments first before choosing your team.

Would like the Chicago Bears
Chicago Bears would be the first choice.
Cincinnati Bengals the 2nd choice.
As I am in Nashville
I’ll take the Titans.

If no one's called them yet - I'll take the Raiders.
I can’t do as bad a job as Al Davis in the last five years, amirite?
(obligatory I respected the man and he did a hell of a lot for football, but good lord was he a bad GM those last few years)
Now, "wait 'till next year" looks like "Watch out for next year!" GO LEAFS GO!
aaaaaaaand never mind
No picks in the first four rounds this year. Amazing.
thinks How about the Carolina Panthers then? Must be fun knowing you have Cam Newton to build around

Minnesota or Detriot
Matt – Sent you an email as you requested. I can take either Minnesota or Detriot and be the back up for the other if you need.
I guess I'll take New England....

I hate the Patriots and all....
But I’m going to take this seriously. Hopefully everyone else will too.

Atlanta
I’ve had the Falcons the last few years, so I’ll take them again despite the lack of a 1st rounder.
First update is complete
I’ll do another one in a couple of hours.

Ohh I've been a member over 2 years!
Bleh, Colts would be boring though. It will be analyzed to death.
Cleveland sounds fun! Cleveland!
I'll pick the Ravens
If Baltimore is not taken already. Backup for the Bears.
Just finished another update
Thanks to everyone that has signed up.

no one circles the wagons
Like the buffalo bills… If the bills are still open… I’ll give them a shot if that’s all good… Let’s go buffalo… The bills make me want to shout

I guess i will give this a try
I got dibs on the Jets
I'll take a stab at Detroit.
Since dude above me nabbed the team I wanted grumble grumble.
I see great things in baseball. It's our game - the American game. It will take our people out-of-doors, fill them with oxygen, give them a larger physical stoicism. Tend to relieve us from being a nervous, dyspeptic set. Repair these losses, and be a blessing to us. ~Walt Whitman
oh well now i feel bad about it.
