JSherm55 Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 Is it me or does it seem like many guys in the supplemental draft have character issues than just a simple running out of eligibility? Going over this list of some guys that have been picked, some of the players have issues. I personally don't understand why the price for a supplemental pick is so steep. http://www.lostlettermen.com/2010/07/top-1...t-baggage-ever/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewEraDawg Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 Bernie Kosar was supplemental..............well yes I see your point . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shepwrite Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 Browns won the lottery today and get the first pick of every round in the sup draft... so if they see someone they want, they can take him. I think Unger (BYU RB) is the wrong position, but there's a DT a lot of people like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paxton Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 Bernie Kosar didn't have character issues. The guy the Cowboys picked, Joshua Price-Brent, has major character/work ethic issues. However, all RB/FB Harvey Unga did was get his girlfriend pregnant, which isn't kosher at a Mormon school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sisky fringo Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 no worries here, i trust H3 & EM's ability to sift through the apple crate and find some possibilities that meet the core characteristics. now if they didn't have that philosophy in place it's another situation entirely and i'd agree about the risk...about like the old "cross-your-fingers-and-hope" style of Phillip Savage.

ClevelandFanForLife Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 yes! we won the lottery to get the first pick of the supplemental draft. CHAMPIONSHIP! this is surely get the national media to immediately respect us and stop using us as a punchline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gipper Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 To bad nobody even got drafted in the first 6 rounds Was anyone picked? I didn't see where any link showed who if anyone was selected in this year's supplemental draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally don't understand why the price for a supplemental pick is so steep. http://www.lostlettermen.com/2010/07/top-1...t-baggage-ever/ Where is the risk? If they're head cases you cut them plain and simple. It's also not new that a good number of the guys in the supplemental draft are A. running out of time and B. Have character issues. The last big one I remember was Paul Oliver. (Head case) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLEVELandMILIDH Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 Was anyone picked? I didn't see where any link showed who if anyone was selected in this year's supplemental draft. Only 2 players were picked, both in the seventh round running back Harvey Unga by the Bears, and defensive tackle Josh Price-Brent by the Cowboys.

DawgTracker Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 Don't you give up a pick in next years draft in the same round? Imho if you take someone in round 3 of the supplemental you would lose next year's 3rd round pick. Or, am I completely wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClevelandBigDawg Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 Yeah you lose the next years pick. thats why not many teams use much more than a 6 or 7 and rarely a 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gipper Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 Yeah you lose the next years pick. thats why not many teams use much more than a 6 or 7 and rarely a 5. Unless, of course you have a player like Bernie Kosar eligible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Unger (BYU RB) is the wrong position, but there's a DT a lot of people like. It doesn't work like that. You submit a pick for the guy....if you like a guy, you say I will give a 4th round pick. If you are the high bidder, you gain his rights and forfeit that pick in next years regular draft. That's my understanding of how it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are the high bidder, you gain his rights and forfeit that pick in next years regular draft. That's my understanding of how it works. There's still an order in which you pick, if there wasnt and 5 teams bid a 6th rd. pick on the same guy how would they decide who gets him.

dencyguy Posted July 16, 2010 Report Share Posted July 16, 2010 Thanks for the clarification, Ballpeen. I was always a little hazy about how the thing worked--I had this vision of team representatives having to do some kind of conference call with the league, which went round-by-round asking if anyone wanted to take a player. Your way makes a lot more sense. Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
