So with all the recent debate over Gallo versus everyone else in the draft, I think it'd be really cool to see UK implement a draft ranking feature where posters can rank draft prospects before the upcoming draft. I envision a drop down list including all the top draft candidates and a "write-in" feature allowing posters to enter other unlisted prospects (second rounders and such). The rankings would be tied to user profiles and it'll make next years post-draft "we should have taken so and so" debates that much more honest. It'd be less about predicting the draft order and more about predicting who will be the best players in any given draft.

Any thoughts?

i've been for a pinned draft thread where we can all log our predictions & picks for the longest... so much easier to have a consolidated thread to discuss draft prospects instead of 20 million different ones... awesome idea.
After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.

I think if enough people like the idea, our boy Martin might just add it to the site.

I would love to have a centralized forum. This way members can't get away with saying how they love EVERY player in the draft and then saying I told you so's later. I want accountability.

Can't you use your search feature on that?

I'm surprised more people wouldn't like this. Glad there's some support though.

Could just make a new post and have everyone post their predictions as of today.

Yeah, I'm no draft expert either. Far from it. I think it would be a good way of keeping track of the arm chair scouts here. It'd give people who don't wanna post in a million threads a chance to show that they know what's up.

OK, so this is what I gather so far.

1) list of all players that we this are coming out or are eligible.
2) 10+ dropdowns to pick the players you think are the best prospects.
3) have a way to add some write-ins for missing players.
4) save button

that about it?

I think so yes, but also

5)save up to what, 6 seasons?

I'd even call it "UK Bragging Rights" or something like that
