All Time Era NFL Draft Discussion Thread

Let the bashing of the picks and discussions begin! Waiting on Sweets first pick! Remember to only post your picks in the other thread. Keep that one clean.

 

For clarification. When comparing older to newer players what philosophy are we taking? Are they to be compared in today's game exactly as they were or are we acting like they are all in a draft now, but all have had equal access to modern training, equiptment, supplements, etc?

I think we should give the old players the handicap of what they would do had they had access to all that modern players do, but I think we should clarify as that could effect drafting

 

Well thats a good point but I'd say it would have to be on an individual basis when everyone votes. Its all up to everyones personal interpretation of how good that player is or was. Certain players in my opinion could span any era. Some could not. Thats just me. As an example... Say your worried about taking twinky Butkiss because he's a bit older. Dont be. I would take him. He was a beast.

Sweets took imo the best or second best qb of all time in Peyton Manning. Not a bad way to start this off.

Sl1m3y Your on the clock!

 

This game should be very interesting...

 

No Joe Montana? Bogus! :icon_cheesygrin:

 

S1m3y will take him...

 

oh really:icon_evil:

 

axion

Good lord.

 

You'd have been better off taking Montana...Vick?? really????

***the comment by Axion was moved from the actual Draft pick thread.***

I agree with Axion btw...

 

Michael Vick....wow. At least it wasn't Leaf!

 

I thought someone taking Ray Lewis at 1 in this sort of thing was bad.

 

LOL! Michael Vick at number 2 in the entire history of NFL players huh... wow. Amazing.

LL Cool Bolt

Your on the clock!

 

mullet

Sorry, browser sucks, accidental post.

 

Can you really pick one year's version of a player? Don't you have to take a career? And does that Vick pick include injury?


***admin edit*** moved this thread from the draft "pick" thread where no discussion or comments are allowed as stated in the first post of the discussion thread.

 

Vick? Are you crapting me?

 

Nope. Him taking Vick is just Vick. Not a one year version of him lol. Worst pick i've ever seen lol.

Ok, LL Cool Bolt has missed the 24hr window. He gets skipped. Mullet your on the clock!

 

nice i get ripped for taking vick but next dude misses his pick.

 

Your life sucks huh...lol But you should have known you were going to get blasted for that pick, esp. as your first pick.

 

Well youre basically saying that you view Mike Vick as the second best player in league history, you should expect to get blasted. I dont agree with the Manning pick either but at least the argument can legitimately be made.

 

if i didnt take vick he wouldnt have made it back to me. ill take the challenge of building a team that plays to his strengths
