      I think now this truncated version would be a lot easier. (How hard is it to come up with one of the 10-12 best QBs/RBs/WRs/TEs in history and choose one?

        What would you want to call your team.

        And Z, could you do that with just 6 rounds....10 or 12 teams....just skill players?

          It's a good idea, and I'll pin it for you if you get enough guys, but 24 rounds too much for me.

              I'll play

              It makes more sense with current players though. It would be more interesting and more relevant.

              I mean... This will just create the "how good were the players in 1970 really?" argument. Gipper will draft players currently in retirement homes, and I'll draft current players. My team would crush his, clearly. But then there will be that debate

                What is your team name?

                And....you really know nothing. If we were drafting OL and DL etc.....given the weight training and nutrition the current OL/DL players would be bigger and stronger perhaps (but only if the older players were NOT given the same weight training).

                But we are drafting now only skill players....and the skill of players has NOT been enhanced since days prior....so everything is equal. Jim Brown is still bigger, faster, stronger than any RB playing today. Bob Hayes is faster than any WR playing today. Johnny U. is every bit the precision passer as any QB playing today.

                So...for your team....if you choose, you are welcome to choose only current day players. There is nothing stopping you from doing that.

                    Sure, I'd only draft players from the last decade. I assume that means they'd be in their prime?

                    Why no defensive players?

                      I'd have more interest in a current-players draft.

                        You didn't see the OP before I edited it. I was going to do a full 24 man roster draft.....but the consensus was that would be way too much to try to keep up on...and I figured that 24 rounds probably was too intimidating. So I truncated it to do just an Offensive skill position, 6 round draft to suit the requests.

                          Also, everyone you are drafting you would consider to be "in their prime". I would imagine that you would draft someone based on how you felt they performed over their entire career. Or you could choose someone based just on how they performed in a single season.

                          I mean, in theory it could be argued that Braylon Edwards was the best WR in Browns history...and he may well have been....for one year. If that is your selection criteria, more power to you. (Just like say, using a different sport: Sandy Koufax is the greatest pitcher in history...and over a short number of years that very well may be true).

                            You can do yours in this framework....again, you are free to choose whomever you wish.

                            You can draft all Michigan players if you would like. (and, yes, you would probably have a pretty good team).

                                Do you want to do this or not? You would have the entire pantheon of history to choose from.....how you wish to limit yourself is a personal choice. But because you choose to limit yourself does not mean that I would want others to be required to do the same thing.

                                    Except, of course, you are drafting for players in their prime. Don't you get that?

                                    It may all be superfluous anyway....not enough people signing up to participate....so it may have to be dropped.
