DawgTalkers.net Forums The Archives 2013 NFL Season NFL Draft (2013) Anyone Else Concoct a Big Board??

Good afternoon,

Since I seem to have spent entirely too much of my Saturday morning looking at Mock Drafts throughout the interweb, I decided to update my entirely too old Big Board and suck up most of my Saturday afternoon in the process.
Which got me to wondering, does anyone else go through the absurd hassle of creating a Big Board just to continue the absurdity of their Mock Drafts??

Assuming I'm not alone in this, that thought also brought me to wondering what my fellow psycho-pseudo GM's Big Boards looked like. And here we are...

For obvious reasons, I usually keep my Big Board to 100 (since our 4th round picks are usually close to top 100 anyway). Besides it helps to salvage what little sanity remains swirling around between my ears.

Fair is fair, so I will start with my own Big Board (assuming it pastes well enough.

linky

I'm still hoping to make one for the browns like I did last year... Not exactly the same as what you've done. I may also cap it out at 100 this year if I have time. This baby stuff really cuts into one's free time.

Oh sorry Big BOARD.... opps

I use an excel spreadsheet to mark players as they come off the board.

I organize by position. I have been using the CBS sportsline list of late, as it has links to the player that copy on over. I color code by round and ranking. If I get motivated, I will move them around a bit, based on my own perception as to when I feel the player will come off. A couple of years I have posted it on-line...

I go about 350 deep which is why I went crazy to see Hughes come off the in the third round last year.... normally you do not see a player not on the list until the fifth...

Looks like I may have been wrong on him as a player, but I question why he was not targeted later.

Well then, fabulous news (or not).

Since my Saturday night is now ruined I can now post my 4th and 5th round prospect board. This was was kinda done in anger and frustration over what is turning into a wasted weekend).

On a brighter note Shamarko actually made a 5th round grade (woohoo??)

Well..I'm going to go get drunk now...possibly alone

Love the draft...but no where as ambitious as you making your own big board... hey so I'm Lazy

Over the years - Day of the draft Great Blue North Draft Report has their final 100 ranking (but it goes to over 300) - I always would print that up n use it as my board when following the draft. Over the years the first page has been Very, very accurate. cause of headings first page goes to around 26-28...maybe one or two is not taken as the 2nd round comes.

Top 15 very accurate...this year will be interesting cause usually by now the top 10 is pretty much KNOWN via slotting. This year its all over the place.

The only players I want in the 1st round for the Browns are Dion Jordan or Chance Warmack! This is my big board! Im just not buying the Dee Milliner hype. Is there really that much difference between Milliner and other DB prospects?

I would try and get all guys named dj cb ss and oline

I would also like to say thos site is ok for talking about the browns but itsux as in format compared to brownns chat. Our ridiculous run club screws it all up all the time. Why cant we chat anore on our official website? Sad sad sad

Most of us left the Browns site because of the change to the board they started using.

New post jumpers are one of the main reasons I left. I hate having to try and remember where I left off in a thread, and search through a thread to see if there's anything new or not. I much, much, much prefer being able to just look at a thread and see how many new posts have been made since I last visited, and then have the ability to go to the new posts in each thread immediately and easily.

I also happen to like the orange type. However, if you would like a different format, you can do so on your home page. (under display preferences)
