We each picked 2 players in day 3. Both Me and Cochis picked rounds 4 and 5 correct(McPhearson and Gainwell). Greenakers picked round 6 and 5 right(Gainwell and Stevens). So it actually was a 3 way tie getting 5 points for first place.

So it actually was a 3 way tie getting 5 points for first place. Based on the tie-breaking rules in previous years, if you had more early round correct picks you won the tiebreaker if you had the same number of points. Correct me if I'm wrong @OCEaglefan In 2017, when myself and @Kz! had the same number of points, the tie-breaker ultimately went to Kz as he correctly picked Sidney Jones in the 2nd round, whereas I did not have Jones correct, but rather Rasul Douglas in the 3rd round, which he did not, and the rest of our correct picks were in common, yielding the same number of total points (Derek Barnett, Shelton Gibson, Mack Hollins, Donnel Pumphrey). Kz won that year and I was runner up. Using that logic here, yourself and Cochis would both have the tie-breaker advantage over Greenakers getting Round 4 and 5 correct instead of Round 5 and Round 6 correct. However if you go back to Day 2, Cochis had the 2nd round pick correct, Landon Dickerson, whereas you had the 3rd round pick correct, Milton Williams. Therefore, Cochis would have the tiebreaker advantage here, and thus was correctly named the 1st place finisher by OCEaglefan, assuming he's using the same tie-breaking rules from previously. Congrats to all of you that managed to get picks right today in what was an unusual draft for sure, and congrats to @Cochis_Calhoun, the 2021 EMB Master of the Draft.
May 2, 20214 yr Author I may made errors. Will recheck tomorrow how I worded. I did miss some points today as pointed out

May 2, 20214 yr Hello all, having looked at my performance over the competition, my points total seems to include coming out of the first round with 2 points which I'm not sure can be right because although Devonta Smith was the first name on my list, I didn't have a player bolded or marked lock and actually said we were a 'lock' to trade down (f'ing Howie man 😁) I think that means I finished as an 'also ran' albeit one who got a few picks right and I see we picked Jamie Newman up as a UDFA too, who made my list for day 3. At least I managed to get past day one this year.
May 2, 20214 yr I checked it back and also reckon it was a three-way tie for 1st place between @Greenakers2 @DeathByEagle and @Cochis_Calhoun No need for tie-breakers IMO, just to all three. This was not an easy draft to predict to say the least, what with a new coaching staff and the double-dipping at DT and DE. I was convinced they would double-dip at CB on Day 3 (wrong!), take a true LB (wrong!) and a TE (wrong again!). I was happy to get one pick correct on each day, and what I reckon were a couple of 'near misses' with Nick Niemann and Tay Gowan (?!). Kicking myself over Gainwell, but I genuinely thought he'd be long gone by pick 123, never mind 150! Sincere thanks to @OCEaglefan for organising this yet again, it adds even more intrigue to an already compelling weekend.
May 2, 20214 yr Well done. You guys know your stuff which is what makes this board fun and interesting.

I did miss some points today as pointed out @Cochis_CalhounI double checked all three days and Looks like you correct, you only had 4 points, not 5. Thank you for your honesty. @OCEaglefan can double check our research Cochis had 1 point for day one for Smith(1st rd), no bonus. One point day 2 for Dickerson(2nd rd) and 2 points day 3 with McPhearson(4th rd) and Gainwell(5th rd) giving you 4 points total Cochis= 1st rd(NO bonus)+2nd rd+4th rd+5th rd= 4 points Greenakers had Smith(1st rd) and trade up bonus on day 1 so 2 points day one. 1 point day two for Williams(3rd rd) and 2 points day three for Gainwell(5th rd) and Stevens(6th rd) giving him 5 points total Greenakers- 1st rd(PLUS bonus)+3rd rd+5th rd+6th rd= 5 points I had Smith(1st rd) and trade up bonus day one for 2 points day one. 1 point day two for Dickerson(2nd rd) and 2 points on day three for McPhearson(4th rd) and Gainwell(5th rd) giving me 5 points total. DeathByEagle- 1st rd(PLUS bonus)+2nd rd+4th rd+5th rd= 5 points So its a 2 way tie between Myself and Greenakers for the winner.
May 2, 20214 yr Congrats DbE. My big gambit was the correct belief that Ertz would not be moved. Gannon's ideas going in were going to be hard to quantify until seen on the field-so crapshoot. He took 2 that I loved in Williams & Stevens. Gainwell just fit Colts/Chargers offense too perfectly not to list. Dickinson shocked me-know nothing at all about McPherson. Waddle was my guy-but I knew he'd be gone before 12-and there was consensus going in that a). Smith could likely be there & b). Eagles were looking to move up a bit.

Obviously I’m not happy that it got messed up

Might be easier to stick with the lock pick as a bonus. Forget the trade or stay put options. Can even do the lock pick for all 3 days.

Damn, bro, you have a great memory! 2017 was fun, I was hoping we'd be able to run it back this year, but Day 3 was too tough to predict.
