The mock draft has begun.

Time to begin. Welcome to the 2013 TBD 3 Round Mock Draft. Kansas City is on the clock.

Please keep all commentary on the mock draft in this thread. Do NOT post comments in the draft thread: THEY WILL BE DELETED!

The mock will be done on the Mock Draft subforum. The thread is already posted and will be open just prior to the noon start time. Any trades 'tween owners MUST be confirmed by BOTH owners to me. Once I receive the information, I will post it in the trade thread. There's still 5 teams that need owners. Either someone can take an additional team or if anyone else wishes to sign up, they are welcome to do so. See ya in a bit. Mock Draft: http://forums.twobillsdrive.com/forum/30-mock-drafts/

This is where all trades will be posted.

Unless you get a real sweetheart of a deal, I think we'll pass. We found a place 'bout $100 a night cheaper.

Our flights are set up as well. We're stayin' for nearly a week, so that we can do plenty of stuff before/after the game and not be rushed to get in and out of town.

Just let me know which teams you wanna take on. I'll take the Raidahs.

Here we go again! Looks like we'll have to take over another hotel lounge like we did in San Antonio.

Only 143 days 'til the home opener! Our hotel reservations have already been made and my leave was approved for the trip months ago. I am READY!!

Very difficult, I grant you, but not impossible. It would be better if there were more prospects to feel really good 'bout in regards to QBs. I just don't feel comfortable w/ the prospect of passin' up a good player somewhere else to gamble on any of this year's QB early. I've seen enough of the Bills draftin' for need and leavin' guys like Haloti Ngata and Vince Wilfork available for others.

I've been there for the last few regular season games and a couple pre-season games. And since my wife, Psycho Ward 86, is a fan of theirs, I've gone w/ her to other games, includin' a playoff game a few years ago vs the Chargers. The stadium is very nice and family friendly. The tailgatin' is pretty good too. We usually take the Clipper over to the stadium, and there are plenty of bars and clubs over there.

QBs do have the tendency to go higher, so you may have somethin' there. Personally, I'm not enamored by any of these QBs, so I'd love to see the Bills get very good players @ other positions that will fill holes and solve problems as opposed to graspin' @ straws by takin' a QB for the sake of takin' one. Draftin' for need has always worked out so well in the past, especially for the Bills, huh?

I don't mind takin' a shot on a QB, but I don't believe it MUST be done @ #8. There's a good chance they could end up w/ another Blaine Gabbert, Akili Smith, or even Sanchize by goin' so high for one. Do your research on the guys who should be there in Rounds 2 or 3. Seriously folks, the draft does not conclude w/ the 32nd pick.

Depends. Is there someone who may develop into or even happen upon the scene (ala Kaepernick or Wilson)? Perhaps. Is there a, "You'd be foolish to pass 'em up in the first round" type like Griffin and Luck last year? I don't believe there is.

"If you don't already have a franchise QB, you don't pass one up." -Jacksonville in 2011 -NY Jets in 2009 -Cincinnati in 1999

Check the first post of this thread for details of the mock draft.

Already taken, clump.

This is where you can sign up for whichever team you'd like to draft for. All teams are available except for Buffalo, which will be done via a poll.

When was he here?

The 3 round mock draft will begin on Monday, April 22 2013 'round noon. Rounds 2 and 3 will be on Tuesday, April 23 2013 and will also begin 'round noon. The times listed are Eastern Standard Time. TEAM SIGN-UPS There will be a thread posted on Wednesday, April 17 2013 where people can select which team they would like to draft for. Teams will be awarded on a first come, first serve basis. Like always, we will do a consensus pick for the Buffalo Bills, whose picks will be decided by the results of a poll. TIME LIMITS For the first round, you will have a maximum of 10 minutes to make your selection. Trades are allowed, as long as the agreed upon trade is submitted within your 10 minute time limit. For the second and third rounds, you will have a maximum of 5 minutes to make your selection or to submit an agreed upon trade. Everyone is welcome to participate. Please be mindful of the other participants, though. We want this draft to be successful and run smoothly, so if you have any concerns about having the time to participate, please PM me before we begin. Any GM that fails to submit a pick or agreed upon trade in their allotted time will FORFEIT THEIR PICK! If there are any other questions or concerns about the mock draft, feel free to PM me. Have fun!

Looks like 'bout half of our previous owners are comin' back. That would leave 'round 13 spots in the league. I will select new owners on a first come, first serve basis, but the owners, whether they're new or returnin', MUST be aware of what the league entails (check out the league subforum to learn more 'bout the league-link is posted in the first post in this thread) and MUST be active. Good luck to all participants.

Try it again.
