Potential Options for Draft Prospect Coverage: A Chiefsplanet Poll. - Page 2

**Rain Man** · 01-03-2006, 03:42 PM

A few of us were batting around some ideas for organizing the inevitable many threads about specific college players who are eligible for the annual National Football League Player Selection Process (also known as "the draft").

I'm going to post a Public Opinion Input Device (also known as a "poll"), and please select one or more options that relate to your opinion (also known as "your dumbass opinion" if I don't agree with it).

Thank you in advance for your cooperation and assistance in making chiefsplanet a better place.

I like it on the front page, fast and furious. That is one characteristic, that has endeared me to this place.

If we add a new subforum, we need to dump about 2-3 others in the process.

htismaqe · 01-04-2006, 08:16 PM

Based on this poll, I'm gonna create a subforum for draft threads. It will be up until just after the draft.

jiveturkey · 01-04-2006, 08:24 PM

I like the subform option with names and position as a thread title. This forum should also include mocks and what not.

I went with option 5. While I love the draft, I don't know what players will go when. I think it would be the best way to go IMO.

Thanks for all your hard work on this, and you get some rest ok?

The reason I'd leave it up shortly after is so that everybody can post scouting reports on the losers we draft.

I think a seperate sub-forum, with open-discussion AND pre-designated threads by position, and as we get into April....by player maybe.

That's what we're gonna do. The "open discussion" won by simple majority, but the other options were popular too.

Cool.

htismaqe · 01-05-2006, 10:36 AM

The forum should be up. I'll be moving content soon.

IMO it should have taken a 51% majority vote to move the draft talk to it's own forum. I mean it's not fuggin politics or girly pics it's fuggin football. I guess discussing football on the front page of a football forum is taboo in 2006.
