<![CDATA[Supplemental draft is too risky]]>Is it me or does it seem like many guys in the supplemental draft have character issues than just a simple running out of eligibility? Going over this list of some guys that have been picked, some of the players have issues. I personally don't understand why the price for a supplemental pick is so steep.

I was always a little hazy about how the thing worked--I had this vision of team representatives having to do some kind of conference call with the league, which went round-by-round asking if anyone wanted to take a player. Your way makes a lot more sense.

There's still an order in which you pick, if there wasnt and 5 teams bid a 6th rd. pick on the same guy how would they decide who gets him.

Fair enough....all I am saying is it isn't like the normal draft.

Unless, of course you have a player like Bernie Kosar eligible.

Well yeah and i do believe that Jared Gaither was pretty high, or was at least was said that he was going to be.

It doesn't work like that. You submit a pick for the guy....if you like a guy, you say I will give a 4th round pick. If you are the high bidder, you gain his rights and forfeit that pick in next years regular draft.

That's my understanding of how it works.

Browns won the lottery today and get the first pick of every round in the sup draft... so if they see someone they want, they can take him. I think Unger (BYU RB) is the wrong position, but there's a DT a lot of people like.

Yeah you lose the next years pick. thats why not many teams use much more than a 6 or 7 and rarely a 5.

Don't you give up a pick in next years draft in the same round? Imho if you take someone in round 3 of the supplemental you would lose next year's 3rd round pick. Or, am I completely wrong?

Was anyone picked? I didn't see where any link showed who if anyone was selected in this year's supplemental draft.

Only 2 players were picked, both in the seventh round running back Harvey Unga by the Bears, and defensive tackle Josh Price-Brent by the Cowboys.

Where is the risk? If they're head cases you cut them plain and simple. It's also not new that a good number of the guys in the supplemental draft are A. running out of time and B. Have character issues. The last big one I remember was Paul Oliver. (Head case)

CHAMPIONSHIP! this is surely get the national media to immediately respect us and stop using us as a punchline.

now if they didn't have that philosophy in place it's another situation entirely and i'd agree about the risk...about like the old "cross-your-fingers-and-hope" style of Phillip Savage.

The guy the Cowboys picked, Joshua Price-Brent, has major character/work ethic issues. However, all RB/FB Harvey Unga did was get his girlfriend pregnant, which isn't kosher at a Mormon school.
