[gabefergy]

Should we be able to Draft Coordinators?

I say no, though I'd be willing to give the exception that if your HC lost their DC to a HC promotion for the game (i.e. Inqui would take a DC if someone selected Pees as HC).

Another thing, I know I can't be alone in having considered what the rest of the coaching staff brings when I took my HC. With a change like this, I could suddenly lose the people I expected to have. Maybe make the change for next year, but we are too far in this year to add it.

Then don't vote

[JoeyFlex5]

either after 26 rounds or just no. 

 

leave it to sizzle to cause the controversy..

why does it matter when? If I want to draft a water boy in the first round and post a picture of Bobby Bouche why can't I?

[T3hRaven]

It's fair to count the no's with the yes after 26 if the no doesn't win. 3 choices is silly.

[RavensFanMania]

I voted no because even if we were to be able to draft after 26 rounds it would still give the people an advantage who had the ealier picks.  Now if this was a 27 round draft it would be a little more fair to the teams that had later draft picks.

 

anyway, I still believe I'd vote no either way.

[CalvinSmoke]

Then change the name from draft a franchise to draft a roster

I dont see why people cant draft coordinators. If they want to use a draft pick then it should be fine.

[RaineV1]

Eh, we've already had someone pick a kicker, so why not coordinators? The play callers (assuming the HC or QB isn't doing it) do have a major effect on the team after all.

That's why we vote

That's a good point. Not everyone participates after 26.

[gabefergy]

I changed the poll to only have 2 outcomes, if you voted option 3 please choose between a simple Yes or No.

[hawkprey]

I don't like drafting coordinators or head coaches. These teams are all theoretical, but at least we know how good the players are. Coordinators make it too open-ended. Say you got Mike McCarthy in the Xth round... what does that mean? Do we know if that was a bargain or not? Especially when we can't look at our own Ravens defense and decide if the players or Pees are at fault. I really don't want to do a draft where I have to decide which guy in a sweater vest is the best motivator.

That's how I feel too, but the decision to draft a HC was made already.

Requesting this as a poll option.

How would an odd # of rounds be more fair to ppl who had later picks.

This is like saying Sizzle already has 6 QB's and shouldn't be allowed to draft a 7th because I expected one to be there because Sizzle has 6 already. 

 

This is actually part of the game and strategy and a really poor argument against it. 

[BmoreBird22]

I'm going to say I have to agree with Sizzle when I say if he wants to use a pick, why stop him? Some people don't even draft a punter, fullback, or kicker and that's their prerogative. If he wants to pick a coordinator and you didn't get a head coach, then you both made a calculated risk because he's passing on possible players and you're passing on possible coaches

[RavensFanMania]

The people had later picks initially in odd rounds so in even rounds when we started to draft coordinators this time the teams would be drafting closer to the top.

Oh okay I thought you were saying we begin drafting coordinators in round 27 which makes 0 sense

I think it's a fair point, but I see the other side too. Also, there was never an official decision to even draft coordinators. It's really too late to do it now, but it needs to be decided.

I don't like adding something in the midst of the game, as it could produce unfair results and people could have potentially drafted differently earlier on.  If this was introduced from the beginning, I wouldn't have a problem.

I respect that stance crush. Honestly that short post calmed me down a bit lol

I didn't explain myself well. Thanks for asking for clarification.

this explains why im voting a no. 

 

too messy, HC is in depth enough, and how are we supposed to add half a coaching staff to a roster when we can barely get 32 people to draft 11 players on each side of the ball..

[GrimCoconut]

I think much ado is made over nothing on this. The only real requirement in this game in the past was you needed to draft 22 starters, your starting 11 on offense and defense. Coaches, coordinators are simply added benefits you don't necessarily need in this game. That's why I don't understand why it's even a big deal. If he wants to use his pick on a coach as a coordinator then let him. It's not like you MUST draft a coach here. At least that's not my understanding

[gabefergy]

Voting had been open for 2 days...looks like no coordinators.
