Never let it be said we aren't fully prepared and researched deep into a draft class. Hail. While there have been some unfortunate skips, not a single skip was due to someone bailing. All have either been unlucky timing or home life - which has to clearly come first. @Epochalypse ended up being GM of several teams the last 2 or even 3 rds last year just to get finished. I just do not see that happening this year. And the deep level of research is more than commendable. Makes this exercise just that much more fun. Great job by all the GMs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet again this has been a top notch group of GM's. The time and effort taken is one heck of a commitment through this process and I can't commend everyone enough. Tell yer what though, don't EVER volunteer to administrate this thing on top of your own draft prep. Man alive I'mma need a months vacation to recover when this is all said and done. . Hail.

That is waaaaaaaaaaaaaay back No no, Hughes Capet was the last elected King of France. He then started the coronation of his son Robert II to make sure his family would stay in power. That the oldest son would just straight inherent the throne. That there would be no election proces. So until Robert II you elected the king.

RemoveSnyder Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 With the 25th pick in the 6th round, #209 overall in the 2017 NFL Draft, the Houston Texans select: Javancy Jones - Linebacker - Jackson State University   Representing HBCU . It boggles the mind that Jackson State has not had an NFL draft pick in the last 8 drafts! Such history at JSU. Tarik Cohen was the first player selected in our ES mock draft representing the MEAC and HBCU. Two players have been selected from the MEAC. Jones is the second player drafted from the . Last year Javon Hargrave of South Carolina State was selected by Pittsburgh in the 3rd round. I loved Hargrave as a prospect last year. Thought he was a Top 50 talent. There has been a definite uptick in talent the last few years from the MEAC/SWAC. Jones will be a position switch player. He was an edgerusher at JSU, yet for the NFL he'll transition to stack LB. He got his first real immersion during the week of practices leading up to the East-West Shrine game. Highlights from the JSU Pro-Day: ... If you can only take one thing away from just learning about Javancy Jones, just know about his commitment to his mother and daughter. http://www.clarionledger.com/story/sports/college/jackson-state/2016/09/17/jackson-states-javancy-jones-fighting-through-tough-chapter/90573306/  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
