Just for fun - my round 1 mock draft
This is not the same as my board (for example I liked Galloway over Groh at 1.1), but i experimented with trying to guess what would happen before I got a pick at 1.32, factoring in things like perceived position value, experience, rarity and so on. This is what i came up with. Like I say, just for fun, really, but I was talking about it a bit late in the first round on the Discord and said I would share once the round was over

Sneaky leaving the two that are still available blank.
So much youth in that 1st round

yup, WR Godfrey at 1.18 - my mock didn't account (enough) for his age. He was picked at 3,25 with a league default pick. i am fine tuning some of the age stuff as we go along (at least as best i can)
OT Dashawn Ruffin I had at 1.28. His age probably counted against him, but still very good value at 3,29

Nice. I got two 1st Rd projections much later than projected.Boots wrote: Tue Oct 27, 2026 9:25 pmyup, WR Godfrey at 1.18 - my mock didn't account (enough) for his age. He was picked at 3,25 with a league default pick. i am fine tuning some of the age stuff as we go along (at least as best i can)

And I don't think Ruffin is that old. Is he? I haven't been paying much attention to age.

Surprised a 7th year RB got taken by Julio, and I assume he didn't mean to have him or didn't make a list... or that's who he wanted

He missed his first pick, so that was a league default pick. I am sure he would have gone another direction if he had chosen.Sef0r wrote: Tue Oct 27, 2026 10:50 pm Surprised a 7th year RB got taken by Julio, and I assume he didn't mean to have him or didn't make a list... or that's who he wanted

Yeah, would have definitely gone younger, probably would have gone with a different position too, but I know these initial draftees tend to have a little more longevity in them so we will run him into the dirt til his contract expires. Not too upset by it, just didn't have time to really engage at all at work this past weekend and between work and home on peak season weekends I am either working or sleeping or eating or in the shower. Most of the rest of the year I have a couple hours of down time spread through my work nights which is what I would have used to make my initial list.CMax wrote: Tue Oct 27, 2026 11:04 pmHe missed his first pick, so that was a league default pick.

I love the My DA functionality on here, it is a great way to handle an initial draft, especially with everyone having the same scout to work off of.. I had some ideas for what I would like to see on certain screens at a glance though, like intelligence along with sole score instead of just one or the other.. Would also like the ability to limit my search to certain age or weight ranges, and perhaps even to have a multiple bar search where I can say "give me a list of players in order by who has the highest combined rating between these bars:" and then let me specify maybe 3 or 4 bars to look for. Thresholds might also be nice, so I can eliminate anyone who is under or over an acceptable level at any given thing.
Just some ideas for the future.

I would add to that list with a number of things that I'd like to change/add to pages. One thing to keep in mind though, is that for a normal rookie draft, there will be a different "rookie card" that has a similar feel to the conscriptor player pages. Some of that will make viewing a player card less of a hassle, as you'll be able to navigate from within them.
I also want to add an ability to more easily filter by chemistry group, similar to the IHOF chemistry search.
