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.

If anything catastrophic ever happens to @OCEaglefan I nominate this guy to take over running the competition. I had no recollection of any of that.

Reading over this thread, it's pretty clear that everyone lost :roll:

All the stuff I said before now applies to you two.You are not co-winners. Each won independently. If you two decide you want to kill each other to be sole winner please let us know so we can live stream it

Exactly

Speaking of rigging, isn't it about time for POTY competitions? 

I think there is someone so deserving that the contest should be brought back just to award it to him.

Haha, I think the only reason 2017 stood out to me (outside of the Super Bowl win of course) was the fact I made it as a runner up that year and it was easily my best year in terms of predicting picks. This year was certainly more challenging than most, but I'm glad that I was at least able to make it to Day 3.
