So here we are again. A little more than one week to go to the day in which team's draft for the future (depending of course if you believe we are rebuilding).
I came at you last week with the idea if a mock draft challenge. This time I have a better idea of how it is we are going to run it.
Option 1 - Full First Round
Since all the experts seem to get the first picks right this one will be in reverse order, weighing more points on the back end.
Picks 1-10 are worth 1 points
Picks 11-20 are worth 2 points
Picks 21-30 are worth 3 points
Super Bowl Champion NY Giants is worth 5 points
Acceptable correct picks:
If you have the Bears taking Chris Williams at 14 and they trade back and still get Chris Williams at 20, that is a correct pick.
If the Bears move back to 20 and whoever they trade the #20 to takes Chris Williams you are correct.
Tie Breakers:
- Most correct picks based on the team, player and position they start the draft at.
- Most correct picks based on team and player.
- Chicago Bears pick at 14
- Chicago Bears pick from any number
- NY Giants pick

Option 2 - Chicago Bears Full Draft
Give me a complete Chicago Bears draft through all rounds.
Each pick is worth the number of the round, so if you are correct with round 1 you get 1 point, if you correctly select who we draft in the 7th you get 7 points.
Acceptable correct picks:
For this one I don't care about the position. If the Bears select that player you get the points for that round.
Tie Breakers:
- Most correct picks
- Most correct picks per draft number
- Some arbitrary question I'll ask if there is a tie that goes this far
