Ragnarok Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 I like the idea of a lottery system based on the last 3 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chargers Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 It should be based off number of fans. Cowboys and Steelers would be #32 and #31 respectively and Chargers would have the number #1 selection. Sounds about right. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forge Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 When the NHL missed its last season, Im' pretty sure that they just did a league wide lottery. That's how the Penguins ended up with Crosby. I've heard one suggestion, I think it was Bill Barnwell, that went by worst record over 3 year stretch or something like that, which isn't awful, but also not necessarily indicative of where teams are at the current point in time (the 49ers, for example, were so bad in the years prior to the most recent season that I'm pretty sure that they would have a top 5 pick or something).

TakeTheBallDeep Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 If we do the NBA method how about this based on this years draft order Teams who picked 1-10 will again do so, only those teams will be in the first round of drawing for those slots Teams 11-20 next Teams 21-32 to end it I'm thinking that would be a lot of fun for TV audience, NFL could build up the "Draft Drawing" for months Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I'm not sure if it would be the fairest way to do it, but it would be highly entertaining I think You would want to start with teams 21-32 then work down to the Top 10 to build the suspension. ESPN and NFL Network would eat that up daily Also maybe giving teams an extra draft pick and expanding rosters would be a good idea? Teams who picked 1-10 get an extra 3rd Teams who picked 11-20 get an extra 4th Teams who picked 21-32 get an extra 5th Hopefully that would help encourage some trades and also let more college players get drafted and possibly make a team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danger Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 Lets have a fun little project. Mock Drafts using the reverse order approach. 1. Kansas City Chiefs are on the clock.... Obviously they'd trade the pick because they aren't taking Lawrence. But who do they trade it to? And for how much? Subsequent picks: 2. San Francisco 3. Green Bay 4. Tennessee 5. Baltimore 6. Seattle 7. Miami (via HOU) 8. Minnesota 9. New Orleans 10. New England San Fran maybe.... wouldn't have to give up nearly as much. Then maybe any of the teams 8-10.

Then maybe any of the teams 8-10. If I were SF, I'd certainly make that call to try and get that pick. I still think that you have to give up a ton though. I think that is RG3 type trade because of the demand. That being said, I'd be interested in the other quarterbacks at that spot, and Penei Sewell would make a ton of sense for the 49ers there given that they are likely to lose Trent Williams in free agency.

After that I'm looking at best OT to replace Fisher, CB (Surtain Jr would be cool since his dad played here), or straight up BPA non-QB/RB.

Jeezla Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 (edited) Picks 1-7 Lottery for the 7 teams that finished 5-11 or worse. All teams in each tier get the same amount of lotto balls. PIcks 8-19 Lottery for the 12 teams that finished between 5-10-1 and 9-7. Picks 20-30 Lottery for the 11 teams that finished 10-6 or better. Pick 31 - KC Patriots don't get a pick for being habitual cheaters. Edited July 26, 2020 by Jeezla 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they do a lottery, have the top 5 teams from 2020 be grouped, then 6-10, 11-15, 16-21, then group the next tiers by the round they lost (21-24, 25-28, 29-30, 31, 32) If they play it straight, combine the last 3 or five season records and let it rip.

The others would likely want the opportunity to improve their standing. It's what happened when the NHL had their season long lockout. I'd be surprised if a lottery doesn't take place of some fashion. I personally think that the teams more closely approximated to the Mississippi River should get the most balls...but that's just me. The Rams may try to leave their empty stadium to go back to St. Louis. Outside the Bucs which non-playoff team is gonna break through. The Colts maybe? But Rivers looked washed.
