Denver and Cleveland looking to move up in the draft now.

Cleveland just traded down, why would they go back up?

Because they're the Browns, that's why.

They want to trade up from their 2nd pick to have 2 in the first round. Neither team wants to go too high from the sounds of it, speculation of Seattle and GB getting calls. Jets also wanted to trade up, mostly because they don't have a QB but the Rams beat them. Thats another team to look out for close to the draft.

It can be worth it to hit the end of 1st to get that 5th year option on some of the pricier positions. If a bunch of teams are working on jumping back into round 1, maybe Denver is looking to move up and avoid getting leapfrogged.

set up a discord server for the draft, and maybe future if the interest is high enough.

Well since it's buried this deep, shouldnt be any problems. I wouldn't put it on the front page because there are..."people"...that will come in and screw with everyone before they get punted.

Some other communities that formed on MMOC had this happen, hence the warning.

I didn't realize it was as easy as clicking the plus sign below the servers I'm already on.

I'm not too worried, not many of those "people" visit the sports section. Regardless, as an entry person you cannot use voice, attach links, attach photos or files, or view message history. People will need to be manually promoted to member which isn't much of a nuisance given the relative size of the community. Moderators can also promote people, given that I cannot be as vigilant during the week.

Just gonna try it out for the draft and maybe tie it into fantasy football later on to boost interest in the discord before the season starts.

Define "screw with everyone". I need to know so I don't do it, you know... on accident...

This is why Slack is also an option, it requires an invite.

Mmm discord....I'd be down to have it tie over to a fantasy football thing. I might be really into that or something.

[draynay]

NFL draft coverage is getting real thin, they're barely scraping by, draft needs to happen before I see another article comparing prospects to types of food or Game of Thrones characters.

Same here.

Speaking of which, I came up with the perfect name.

The Burfict Storm.

[Northern Goblin]

I think they're all afraid to mock draft incase the Chargers trade down.

Also I need a new team name.

[draynay]

Do I have to use one of these terrible player name pun teams now?

[Northern Goblin]

So far I've peaked at Hail to the (Marquette) King.

[Crissi]

Mine is Schrodinger's Catch

Friend has been sitting on Wattch me whip, Wattch me JJ since week 2 of last year.

[Grube]

Dude Looks Like a Clady was what I used the last time I did fantasy football, probably a good thing that does not fit anymore.

That is freakin awesome.

Arent too many ways for Cowboys player names to be included. Maybe "Dez is how we do it." The one involving Romo Im not sure is MMOC appropriate
