Libid21 Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Imagine if the NFL, regardless of how unrealistic this will sound, had to start over and they held an NFL draft. It doesn't matter where you project your team to be, but what would your team look like? This is kind of like the Madden fantasy drafts except I want you to draft or think up of a team that is realistically possible to get in this situation and don't base it on how good they are in Madden. I'm just curious to see some results here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott24Falcons Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 I always thought about this. It leads to pretty interesting discussion. I'd draft my team looking ahead to the future, so most of my guys would be younger.It's hard to determine who would be available during the draft, but my team would look something like this:QB: Matt RyanFB: (not sure)RB: Earnest Graham, BenJarvus Green-Ellis (I wouldn't use a high pick on this position)WR: Roddy White, Wes Welker, Eddie RoyalTE: (let me think about this one)LT: Michael RoosLG: Justin BlalockC: Ryan Kalil (I think he's going to turn into a really solid C)RG: Shawn AndrewsRT: David Stewart (give me the two underrated Titans' OTs)I'll do the defense later, but my obvious focus on building an offense was to get a great QB for the future, and put him behind a beastly OL. Obviously Roddy White is emerging as a star in the league, so that helps the offense. I believe that any decent RB in the league can be successful with a great OL.

1989Fan Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 I think about it too when I do a new franchise in Madden, becuase I do the fnatasy drafts in that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kayoh Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 I'd draft my entire DL first, then my OL, then my CBs, then my WRs, then my LBs/FB/TE, then my QB, then my HB. Then, the year after, when we have the 1st overall pick, I'd draft Colt McCoy. OL: Joe Thomas-Todd Herremans-Jamaal Jackson-Shawn Andrews-Jake LongDL: Mario Williams-Sedrick Ellis-Amobi Okoye-Elvis DumervilI hate the Eagles so much.

Libid21 Posted November 16, 2008 Author Share Posted November 16, 2008 I don't think you would be able to draft both Joe Thomas and Mario Williams on the same team. If it were to happen, I'm pretty sure Joe Thomas would go Top 10, and Mario Williams would surely be drafted right after. For my team, it would look something like this...QB: Matt Ryan - Josh Johnson (I've always liked Johnson coming out of college, but I think he'll be a project for a really long time, but still a solid backup.)HB: Michael Turner - Jerious NorwoodWR: Roddy White - Calvin JohnsonKinda hard to think about it actually... so many possibilities and scenarios to think of.

Kayoh Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 Let's do it. We need to find 30 other PF members, then we'll do this thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kayoh Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 LG: Justin BlalockSeriously? :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott24Falcons Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 Seriously? :blink:Seeing as how this is supposed to be a realistic draft.....yes. Besides, Blalock is a fine OG and is getting better each week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kayoh Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Seeing as how this is supposed to be a realistic draft.....yes. Besides, Blalock is a fine OG and is getting better each week.He's quite possibly the worst pass protector on our line. And that says a lot.

Kayoh Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 You've officially lost your mind.He gave up the most sacks on the line last year and he's tied for the most this year. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
