@mwonow and I are happy to bring you the 2020 Draft Contest.
Like last year this contest will have 2 parts. The first part is the same as last year: a weighted scoring system for the right draft picks and UDFAs. The second part is a different this year. This year instead of doing a 53 man roster competition we are going to donate for the person who correctly identifies the most draft picks and UDFAs total.
Scoring is for the weighted system is just like previous years: three points for each player selected by the Pats in the first three rounds - 4 for round 4, 5 for round 5, 6 for round 6, 7 for round 7, and 8 pts for naming UDFAs signed by the Pats within 72 hours of the end of the draft. In an echo of sorts from previous years, 3 bonus points if a player on your list gets picked #241- the "Fleming memorial" (or with whatever pick ends up being the last one made by the Pats in the draft).
Which players will get the opportunity to join the next dynasty? As always, if history is any guide, your guesses will be better than ours...
Let's get the contest in gear! I'd appreciate it if your entry took the form of last name, first name, position, college; your thoughts on the player are optional, but always appreciated.
Free to enter, and bragging rights for whoever picks best - plus SMU_Sox and I will donate $100 to the SoSH charity of choice in the name of whoever wins - and as mentioned, will add a second $100 for the most correct picks.
Looking forward to hearing what/who you think the Pats will add through the draft, and why!
As an added bonus sometime Sunday/Monday @Brand Name and I (as well as @Alykins32 and two non SOSHers) are going to drop a couple of "podcast" style previews of each position group for the draft with a Patriots lens starting with the defensive side of the ball and hopefully offense sometime Monday or Tuesday. The pods should help frame the draft for the Patriots as well as give you some names to think about that would (hopefully) help in the contest and who we think would be good additions.
