Official 2011 OM Mock Draft UDFA Thread

[BowlenBall]

The 2011 OM Mock Draft is dead -- long live the 2011 UDFA round!

The UDFA (UnDrafted Free Agent) round is open to all 32 participants of the regular mock draft -- you don't have to participate if you don't want to, but all picks will be included in your mock draft haul and count towards bragging rights.

2010 UDFA Round Results: http://www.orangemane.com/BB/showthread.php?t=90729

Here are the details for this year (exactly the same as 2010):

1. All teams begin with $100,000 to bid for players which were not selected in the 2011 OM Mock Draft. Bidding is done blindly and privately -- in other words, all bids are sent to me via PM, and the results are revealed at the conclusion of the bidding period. DO NOT POST YOUR BIDS IN THIS THREAD!

2. Minimum bid for a player is $5000. Bids can be made in $100 increments only. There will only be one round of bidding, so any cash you have left over will be useless. In other words - use it or lose it.

3. Please send all bids via one and only one PM to me (expatfan) any time between the last selection in the OM Mock Draft and Wednesday, April 20th, at 11:59 p.m. MST. Please title the PM "UDFA Round Picks for NFL TEAM NAME". All bids received after the deadline will be considered null and void.

4. Please submit bids in this format:

Name, Position, College, Bid
Shane Falco, QB, Ohio State University, $30,000
Stefan Djordjevic, FS, Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, $11,400
Rod Tidwell, WR, University of Phoenix, $23,700
Total Spent: $65,100

5. Please do not submit bids for players who have already been selected in the mock draft. Refer to the Alpha list or the main pick thread before you submit your bid. Any bids for pre-selected players will be ignored, and the team owner will NOT be notified of his error.

6. Tiebreaker: if two or more teams bid the same amount for the same player, than whoever submitted their bid first will be considered the winner.

7. Results will be posted early Thursday morning.

8. In the interests of transparency, I will submit my own list via PM to JCMElway before the official bidding period begins, and before I review any of the bids submitted. In addition, I will disqualify myself from the tiebreaker rules, meaning that any tie that I am involved with will go to the other team.

9. As I receive bids, I will post confirmation below, along with a sequence number indicating when they submitted it to me (1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc.).
