Welcome to Draft Week on the Huddle


Jeremy Igo

Recommended Posts

Hello there. We are glad you are here. 

It is draft week on the Huddle. Officially, this is our 14th draft week. We have learned much over the years to keep this joint running like a well lubed battery operated device. 

As such, here are the ground rules for the draft. 

 - Exactly ONE thread will be created by an admin or mod for each selection. That thread shall be used for general talk and knee jerk reactions. If you start a thread titled "NOOOOOOOOOOOOO" for example, you will likely be banned until after the draft is over. 

- If you have an idea for a thread that is well thought out and composed relating the pick to the team, that is fine. An example may be "How will this pick change what the panthers do on offense?" As long as your topic has a unique idea and has quality content, you won't be banned. 

 

Now, a word on SPOILERS........

No one cares that you are on twitter and know the pick 20 seconds before the television. 

THERE ARE NO SPOILERS ON THE HUDDLE. We recognize the pics as they are announced at he podium. You spoil, you banned. 

 

Follow these simple rules and no one gets hurt.

A word of warning to all.

There's always 1 or 2 guys who think they're funny. Do NOT look in the main draft thread if you don't want to be spoiled while watching the draft. There's always that one guy who posts the guy and think they're the coolest thing since poo, and don't care.

Don't say I didn't warn you all.

Before you meltdown if Jacksonville passes on Fournette and we theoretically "trade up" for 6...

The Jets are the only willing trading partners (and they really want to trade down) after the Jaguars, and the Bengals really want Fournette. Some rumors Saints are as well and want to leapfrog. That would prove to be detrimental to use getting Fournette, who is highly rated on our board.

So, if we trade for 6, don't freak out and assume it's for no reason.

    • Anybody got a clue what this is supposed to mean? 🤔
    • I figured as much. Hopefully he's just resting up and will be ready for round 3 (if we make it that far.)  Sucks to see. Hes been our best defender (besides Slavin) in the playoffs so far.
    • I've never bought into the idea. There's just too much at stake, even for front office people. Jobs are lost, trust is lessened, lives are altered, reputations are damaged and more. Throw in that the average front office person isn't as young as the average player. They may not have ten years ahead of them to salvage their careers. Any given year could be their last. The only person not guaranteed to suffer some direct form of consequence from losing is the owner, and even there you still have problems (fan reaction, team reputation, revenue, etc). You've also got massive egos in play on that front so it can get personal. Mind you, I do accept that there are "fire sales" in order to build for the future, but even those have consequences. They don't exactly guarantee success either. Poorly run teams often just wind up in the same circumstance a few years down the road. Sorry gus, but my tinfoil hat just hasn't fit me for quite a while.
