2011 Big Time Shadow Draft


Its that time of year again.  Time for the fanbase to demand that Smithiak take a space eating nose tackle or, durga-forbid, a safety, only to see our wishes pushed aside like Chris Myers against a 3-4 defense.

If you think you could do better than Smithiak, here is your chance.   We have a website for Texans fans to follow the live draft and step into the GM's shoes in real time, and make the pick you think the Texans should have made.

The link below will take you to the second annual Big-Time Live Draft for Texans fans.  After registering, you can set up your big board of players that you will draft.   If you are unable to participate in the live draft, the site will make your selections for you if you have set up your auto-draft queue.

If you are able to participate in real time, you will earn the right to bitch if you pick seven studs and the Texans whiff (again).

Here's the link:

http://www.lewisfive.com/draft/

It works like this:  you'll be on the clock when the Texans are.  You'll be able to pick from all undrafted players.  If you don't submit your pick by the time the Texans and/or subsequent teams pick, you can select the Texans choice (only up until their next pick), but the other teams' players will not be available to pick.  If you don't make a pick by the time the Texans are on the clock again, your pick will be for the current round, and you will forfeit the previous pick.

 

After the live draft, there will be a shadow draft on the same site.  I'll have the info on that when the live draft is complete.

 

The draft order is now complete, and the site is ready for your pre-draft queue of players.

Let me know if you find any problems.

Enjoy!

Still semms to be on the 2010 draft. I can pull up any 2011 players? Also, had to register about 4 times under a different user name now. Am I doing something wrong? Thanks.

When you go to the site

what does it say in the address bar?

It should say http://www.lewisfive.com/draft/

If you participated last year, the site has changed locations, so make sure you are at this site.

If that new link is still showing last years players, then you may need to clear your cache. Although since the site is at a different location, this is highly unlikely.

Let me know if this doesn’t work, or you are still having problems.

sorry dude

The whole registration process was dorked up, but thanks to your post, I realized it and fixed it.

It works now.

Your nashmeister username works. Try a password reset and you should be able to login.

Let me know if you still have problems.

Everyone else, try to register again. I’ll purge all the unregistered emails so you can use your main email address.

Okay, I've registered two different names and it's not letting either one in.

And I’ve reset passwords twice now. What. Teh. Hell?!

I am a visionary, I am a genius, and now I am angry! Now help me find my pants!

I have a plan, and it's so cunning you can brush your teeth with it!
