All I know is that I get a huge difference posting a mock in Draft Planet and posting one here in DaFace's prefixed wet dream. Posting one in DP invites conversation, and criticism. Posting one here, as I've done a couple times in the heavy traffic of the evening, elicits two-word posts, simple insults, and shrugs. The breakdowns, as I always love doing them, are few and far between because they get washed out.
And hiding the forum like it is now kills it.
The talk either gets washed out in the heavy, mindless traffic, or gets killed in an isolated forum. The happy medium is elevating the separate forum.
Jesus CHRIST JUST BRING IT BACK.

Yep.
I'm surprised this is even an issue. There has been a seperate draft forum now for the past 3 seasons on Chiefsplanet, and every year it's a great success. People simply want a quick rundown on draft news and opinions, and the quick link of the draft forum provides that. The main forum otherwise gets cluttered with other important things, like Pioli head coach threads and poop posts.
I don't even do that much research or post my own mock drafts or anything. But I love READING others' opinions on these college players. It really educates me well when the day comes in April.
If it hasn't been seconded already, I second putting the draft forum up as a link on the main forum page
