    Only a couple of us did this last year. Probably more interesting than fun. But we got in fairly late in the proceeding. It's just cranking up now.

    It's not a draft sim like FanSpeak or First-Pick. It's what you'd get if you combined the draft and the stock market.

    • You get a pile of cash.
    • You buy players of widely varying costs.
    • You can buy and sell at any time (trading) or hold for the long haul (invest).
    • Player values rises and falls based upon how their projected draft position's rookie salary rises and falls with events between the Senior Bowl and the draft.
    • Their final value set by their actual draft position.
    Check it out...

          Hmmmm... I see what you mean, but do not see a "code" that I can send.

          I'll ask about it, but meanwhile to speed things up I can send you an invite, if you PM me an e-mail addy...

              lol... Mariota sank like a stone. Must be due to our interest in him... 🙂

              I just wish you could short players...

                Mariota sank like a stone because he isn't accurate enough for the NFL.. yet.

                OSU's NFL-caliber defense exposed him as the system QB you'd expect from Oregon.

                I think he'll improve enough to be a NFL starter, but he's not there today.

                    Gotta say, Im enjoying it....definitely still tweaking and trying to figure it all out.....but I always do my draft work anyway, so this is a fun interactive to go along with all that prospect research....

                      Sure send me the code Tour. It's offseason boredom anyway.
