***10th Annual Master of the Draft*** add lock pick for bonus point!!

[OCEaglefan]

One of these days teh AI will write this for me but today is not that day. 
 

Welcome to 2024 Master. Ten years ago I had the idea to make a little competition so I could learn about who the eagles should be drafting in all seven rounds. Then some green lantern  picked Marcus Smith and ruined it for everyone. 
 

Im glad to still be here. 
 

Some years we have some wrinkles based on how many picks the eagles have but This is a pretty chalk year so we’re going to keep it simple. 
 

For Round 1 you have 6 to select who the Eagles will draft. 
 

if you get it right you get a point and move on to Day 2. If you get it wrong you’re out. If Eagles make two picks on Thursday you could potentially get 2 points. 
 

you also can earn a bonus point by guessing correcting if the eagles will "move up”  "move down” or "stay put at 22”

[b]choose one of your picks as a LOCK for a bonus point[b\]

please list your picks in the separate pick thread. Picks in here don’t count. Please also avoid discussion in the picks thread. You can pick and edit anytime until the draft when I lock the pick thread. 
 

FAQ

what if I get points the first and second day but get no points on Day 3. Can I still win?

yes, but you’d win on a tie breaker only if no one picks day 3 correctly.

you can technically win with just three points total if you get day 3 correct and no one else does.

[Aspiritfall]

Since T1000 is from the future and cheated last year can they be excluded going forward?

Can't you win with just 2 points, a day 1 pick and a day 2 pick?

[OCEaglefan]

Yes, if you’re  the only one to get day 2 right

Do we pick trade up/stay/trade down for each pick or just once?

One choice for your whole group

No first round lock bonus this year?

That seems weird. That was always a means to gain some separation in the standings. With the way it’s structured without that feature, it’s liable to be a huge tie at the end.

Good point. Not sure if that is a change implemented for this year or maybe an oversight?

@OCEaglefan Are we not doing the lock in bonus this year in addition to the trade up/down/stay put bonus?

[HazletonEagle]

This certainly seems rigged. But I should be able to win in spite of that.

I went without this year (because i forgot) I don’t want to make people change now. Maybe for day 2

[OCEaglefan]

Eh maybe I’d better change it

Because of my minimal effort at the start 

[OCEaglefan]

What’s funny is no one got all 3 points. A few people locked Mitchell but only one person had Mitchell staying put. Everyone else had trade up

General wisdom was that if we got Mitchell it'd be with a trade up.

I had Mitchell but my lock was DeJean thinking he'd be available at 22, and I didn't see us being able to trade up. 

As it was the draft was so offensive side heavy we got the top cb without trading.

Once again if I missed you, please reply and I’ll fix it
