This is the check-in thread for the "Slick Like Rick" Community Mock Draft, which will hold at least three rounds and have trades.
The draft is starting in another thread, to be posted, at 12PM CST today.
As a reminder, here are the rules. This differs from last week in that there is a longer lead time for picks because of the trades:
- Picks are made by the person assigned to each team and that person only.
- Users get up to seven minutes per pick (except for the Vikings), and the clock starts when I announce that someone is on the clock.
- Users should not submit a pick until the announcement is made.
- For the teams without a rep or if the time runs out, I'll be making the pick.
- If I or the community think you're throwing your pick, I will make a new pick and you're done.
- If you fear you'll miss your pick, send me a big board - arifmhasan(at)gmail.com
- No one will be the team representative for the Vikings. When the Vikings are on the clock, users should chime in with their ideas and why they like those picks. That discussion shouldn't last too long, and will be used to select the Vikings' picks.
- Trades will be submitted via the comment threads, although no trade is official until I announce it. Trades can start as soon as possible. If you want to backchannel in order to negotiate (email people) that is encouraged. Many users have their email address listed on their profile page (which is embedded to prevent spambots from trawling the email address), so you may be able to contact them directly.
- In order to prevent trades from clogging up comment threads, I will create a new page for trade negotiations and announcements to occur, although I will provide the final announcement in any official pick threads.
- Any trades that fall outside of 100 points of the Jimmie Johnson-derived NFL value chart will be rejected. I understand that there are at least two other value charts that better "price" picks, but the Johnson chart has historically most closely resembled actual trades. I will arbitrarily determine if trades with any players will be rejected. Any trades of future picks will be discounted by half in terms of point value unless there's a good reason not to ("we're selling the farm and expect to have a lower pick than this year," for example).
- On the official trade threads, users should chime in to appropriate trading strategies for the Vikings, which teams they want to target and why. I will handle the final trades for the Vikings in that thread and make the announcements. GMs of other teams are strongly encouraged to keep their teams' interests in mind when trading, especially when trading with the Vikings.

This trade is subject to cancel if UGAVikes wants out because it has not been officially confirmed
Under consideration—a trade from the Vikings to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for their 30th pick. As proposed, it is as follows:
From the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to the Vikings: Pick 30 and Pick 75
From the Vikings to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Pick 23 and Pick 120
Discuss your opinions of this potential trade below. It would move down seven picks in the first to move up 45 picks from the fourth into the third.
