It's been a while since we've had a player who has caused as much controversy in where he should go as Thon Maker. I've seen a few calls for him as a lottery pick, while others say he won't even get drafted. So here's your chance to earn CB glory. Where do you think he will be drafted? There will be points awarded for both timing and accuracy.
Your score = D*A, where
D is the number of days before the draft that you make your prediction, and
A is 60-(the difference between what you said and where he went)
For example, Today is May 11 and there are 43 days until the draft. D=43.
If I said he would go 20th and he went 30th (or 10th; we're using absolute value), my A score is 60-10 (the diff between my pick and the actual pick), or 50.
Final score is 43*50, or 2,150.
Yes, it seems complicated, but it's the only way that I could see that gave people extra points without the benefit of seeing what he did at the Combine.
Personally, I think he's a bust, but there's enough interest in him that a team with a few extra draft picks can shoot for the moon. I'll pick now and pick up the extra points. I've got him going to us at 35.
