This is the final decision and thank you to everyone for your suggestions.

Picks 1 - 5 you get 2 points for each correct prediction
Picks 6 - 10 you get 4 points for each correct prediction
Picks 11 - 15 you get 6 points for each correct prediction
Picks 16 - 20 you get 8 points for each correct prediction
Picks 21 - 25 you get 10 points for each correct prediction
Picks 26 - 32 you get 12 points for each correct prediction

You have to guess correctly the player to the correct team to earn the points. If there is a trade and the player gets picked in the same draft spot that you picked but different team because of the trade then you still will get the points.

If we still get the points no matter the team then I guess the bolded statement is not true...

I think keep it simple, there are 32 picks 1 - 32 try to pick each player picked at each spot regardless of team...

FIN

That weight on late round picks is way too extreme considering the average person is probably only going to get 7-10 right at the most. Getting 1 or 2 right on the back end almost guarantees victory

I thought about that last night, we could make it something like

picks 1 - 10 = 1 pt
picks 11 - 20 = 2 pts
picks 21 - 32 = 3 pts

This will be my last suggestion... Taking advice from the group who do not want any negatives

1 point if correctly picking a player in the first round(slot does not matter) example - I pick Mariota to go 2nd but he actually goes 10, since he was indeed picked in the first round I still get 1 Point

3 points if you pick a player within 5 slots- example if I pick Mariota to go 2nd, but he actually goes 7th, Since he was picked within 5 picks of where I predicted I still get 3 points

5 points for Correct pick In the correct slot- If I pick Mariota to go 2nd and he actually goes 2nd then I GET 5 Points...


Pick categories are separate,
So if you get your pick correct in the correct spot you get 5 points NOT 5+3+1=9 points

:scratch: I honestly don't like either of the bolded ideas... It's kinda like the everyone gets a trophy thing, which has ruined Murica!

Before it is set in stone... I want you to realize that clayton made a comment, and you actually did not fix his complaint...

3 points is 3 times 1 point you can get all 10 right from 1-10 but only 3 correct in 21-32 and it would be a 10-9 difference...

If you want to do the points I would make it more like 3-4-5 instead of 1-2-3

with 3-4-5 then 2 correct in any grouping will be more points than 1 correct in any grouping...
