Just a question about draft orders...

Post by MrChampagne3 »

I've been looking around and have figured out that the final order isn't announced until after you choose to stay or leave right? When it is announced is everyone's scores listed with it? I was wondering because i'd like to see about where I will be at on the list by looking at another season's scores. Anyone remember what some of the top scores were from last season?

Oh and by the way, I had no idea our opponents were going to be able to read our comments on the coach reports.lol. I was WAY too descriptive about the flavor of cheese I was forced to eat.I don't remember reading about that, maybe we should warn new users next season. lol. Had a blast this season with you all and can't wait to play again.

Scores arent posted with draft order. If memory serves, teams kept list goes up first, then the draft order is released. You wouldhave to ask the last years coaches what their points were at their respective draft positions. If you have in the 90s, im pretty sure thats a top 20 pick.

Well to give you a very vague idea I had a 94-96 last season and picked 31. It varys but usually 100+ in points will usually get you top 15 or maybe higher.
If you made your season goal for this past season you will be on day 1 of the draft. If you did not make your goal you will be on Day 2. See the recent seasons for where that split is. Usually 40-50 is where day 1 and day 2 are split. It also varys based on how many teams are kept.
Hope this helps. A lot more details will be given out just prior to the drafts to give you more of an idea.
points are not public btw. I do know one guy had just over 100 and was top 20. Hope that helps.
Your coaches reports are only seen by your opponents, not everyone else. They would not know what to improve on if they did not see them ;)
It's all good imo.

I am glad to hear that you were descriptive. We need to be with each other.
That is the only way someone will improve is if we help them along the way.

I cannot fix what I do not know is broken!
And if I cannot, I cannot expect my opponents to either.

Communication is key.

I love reading the descriptions in coaching reports! I also love it when some one uses a term I have never heard before. Anyone know what "run spying" is on offense?

This. Communication is key. You want to leave a comment for the coach you played. As for the draft, I ll have a timeline up in a couple of months after we know when the release of the game is, but scores were very high last season compared to this season.

UCLA, I would assume that meant defense, since it makes no sense on offense.

Yeah I would interpret that as to mean either someone using the "play run" feature or audibling a defender to "qb spy".

when I had Lattimore, I swear that was going on :evil: but I wouldn't blame someone from keying on that beast.

no offense. and I dont mean to derail the topic, but, I remember specifically talking to you after your VERY FIRST scrimmage in the NDL about an issue, and I hear you still do the issue. So "telling you" doesn't really change your gameplay man.

Excuses are like assholes, everyone's got one. You won the Pac 12 last year and still getting bad CR's then its on YOU.

I would assume run spy means guess or play the run which is not legal in the ndl if I am not mistaken.
