    PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE POST BEFORE CONTINUING

    Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, children of all ages...TSF.com proudly bring to you…the Official Fantasy Mock Draft!! Yes it’s that time of year again...a time a lot of us look forward to...a time that helps pass the days pass leading up to the draft.

    For those of you not familiar with this...it’s pretty simple. There will be a sign up period where you pick a team (if all teams are not picked, then some of us will take on an additional team)...then we go through the draft as they do in real life, each team has a time limit, if the the expires they will be skipped...and if they still do not pick by the time the next pick is in then ANYONE can pick for that team. When it’s your turn, you pick the player you think your team needs, simple as that.

    Also we will be allowing realistic trades between teams involving player currently under contract to your team and picks from this year’s draft can be made (as long as both teams approve). However just like last year there will be a 3 person "Trade Committee" that has to approve each trade...you need to get 2 yes votes and the trade is approved. All trades are to be negotiated via PM but announced in public by both teams if the trade is agreed to (if there’s any of you who do not know how to PM or check PMs then ask someone). Please reference the draft pick trade value chart as needed http://www.draftcountdown.com/nfl-draft-trade-value-chart/
    Once OK'd by both teams then the "Trade Committee" will announce their decision. As a side note...if a committee member(s) involved in the trade they cannot vote on it.

    Trade Committee (so far)
    TTF
    SteelCity_NB
    Blast Furnace

    Alternative
    Steel_Elvis


    All teams and their players will be locked in as of when we officially BEGIN the draft...meaning if a team signs/cuts/trade/etc a player in real life it does NOT affect your team once we’ve started. Same goes with picks, those are locked in also. Only players who are under contract (for the 2016 season and beyond) or have been tendered RFA/franchise/transition/etc will count as part of your team. The ONLY thing that might change...is once the NFL announces this year’s compensatory picks (for rounds 3-7) those WILL be added in (which I've read can now be traded). I’m hoping by the time we'd get towards the end of round 3 they should be announced...if they are not announced by then we will add them in when we can (probably for the round we are on and the following rounds).

    Also if you will not be here and your pick is coming up...you can PM your pick to me (or - ANY trade committee member) and your pick will announced for you...but keep in mind, say there are 3 teams ahead of you, then you would need to PM me FOUR choices (ranked by the one you want most to least), that way if someone takes one of your choices I'll go to the next and so on. If you do not PM me your picks and your time limit expires...then you will be skipped and if you haven’t picked by the time the next selection is made then ANYONE can be make your pick for you...but it MUST be a logical/fitting/etc pick not just some random player. Now even if you do PM me your picks and you're here when you’re on the clock you CAN announce it yourself.

    Time limit per pick (by round):

    1st - 12 hours
    2nd - 10 hours
    3rd - 8 hours
    4th - 8 hours
    5th - 6 hours
    6th - 6 hours
    7th – 5 hours

    Also the hours of 12am-6am (EASTERN TIME) will not count against your time on the clock...so nobody will "loose" these 6 hours. However you CAN announce your pick during this time if you want to...but the next teams time will not start until 6am

    There will be a separate post to ANNOUNCE your picks and we will also keep track of picks there.

    For those new to this...look at how the others are announcing their picks...make sure the players first/last name, position, college and pick number (be it round 2 pick 32 or whatever)...and who is on the clock next are all in your selection announcement.

    Teams are first come first serve, no if ands or buts about it...and that means in THIS thread only...no claiming teams in previous threads or any new threads that may come up or via PM...this is the ONLY place to claim a team. This is to be fair to everyone.

    Nobody can claim the Steelers; we will be doing a voting system again that will be below.

    ---------------------------------------

    STEELERS PICKS

    Since there are a lot of us who want the Steelers each year (for obvious reasons) once again we will be doing a voting system. There will be a separate post for voting.

    With that being said...here’s how its going to work (its quite simple). When we are no more than 3-5 teams away from each Steelers pick...you can begin voting. Only votes posting in public in the voting thread will count. You get ONE VOTE for ONE PLAYER...however...if you vote BEFORE the Steelers are on the clock and another team takes who you voted for you CAN change your vote to someone who is available. The Steelers time on the clock will IDEALLY be less than any other team...but it will depend on what time of day they go on the clock and how the voting is going/etc. As the Steelers are the purpose of this site...if we need a little bit more time for a pick...so be it (not like doubling the pick time or something but just a little overtime).

    There will be no trades involving the Steelers as we've done in the past.


    ---------------------------------------

    Remember...there will be a separate post to announce your picks in...also one for Steelers voting/discussion...and I will also have one for trades announced by teams and approval/denial from the Committee. This thread can be general talk about things, questions and anything else that doesnt below in the posts mentioned above.

    I think/hope that covers everything (including the new stuff from last year)...however please refer back to these first few posts of mine...as they sometimes will get updated with new info/etc.

    Oh yeah...please check your PM's frequently, thanks!


    Also here is the link to the trade value chart again:

    Ok, I think I have all the threads up to speed.

    I got the draft order from NFL.com, posted March 3rd. Should be accurate.

    Please look it over to make sure there are no mistakes.

    Let me add, if your only interest is the 1st rd and will drop off the map after that, please do not participate. Likewise if you have issues with others making your pick and are going to drop out should you miss the deadline, please do not participate. Not fair to everyone else.

    You can PM myself or anyone else on the committee to make your pick in advance if you aren't going to be around when its your turn.

    I actually really took a liking to the Titans this year. Like how they are building their offense around the run game.

    I had me last year, and the trade was made after the draft started, so I missed out on their haul. Was hoping to take advantage this year, but I guess the browns will keep me hopping with all their picks. Will probably pick up the rams or eagles if we get to second teams just to even it out.

    Just a heads up, you have the first round draft order up, which leaves out the rams and the Vikings.

    My fault, I should have been more clear about it. I really appreciate you guys doing this. I don't have the time or the knowledge to run this, but I'm willing to help if you need me.

    Woot! Big thanks to Blast for getting this going. Giants are looking for a 7th round pick and a pack of Marb reds for Eli Manning. :lolol:
    Man...a thousand times this.

    I suggest that everyone uses the "watch thread" function at the top right of the thread for all of the pertinent mock draft threads. I get email notifications and it's super helpful for staying on top of things (just make sure the email you have registered is current of course).
