Thread: Draft question: What happens if you skip your turn?

  1. #1

    Default Draft question: What happens if you skip your turn?

    Let's say you have the #1 overall pick, but you don't want to use it, because of the cap ramifications. Can you skip your turn, then re-emerge anytime you want in the 1st round? Or do you forfeit your 1st round pick?

    Trade down...This is why they have advisors...


    Lets say they skip trading down, because the owner was in a coma for 4 months...They forfeit their turn, I would imagine.

    Pretty sure it's forfeit... Ask Mike Tice though.

    Yeah that sounds about right. Otherwise, people would be skipping their turn more often.

    Does that now mean #2 becomes #1 in terms of compensation, or does he stay at the #2 scale?

    Well, I think that would pretty much be left up to the negotiating of both sides, the team and agent/player. They'd probably come out somewhere in the middle.

    This would be a very interesting question indeed if they came up with an official scale. Which they should.

    I ask because I want Cutler to go to Detroit, but they might not be able to afford both the #1 pick and Cutler.

    Heck, if I was Detroit, and forced to good, I'd trash the #1 pick and pretend that they just gave it away and overpaid Denver, just to secure Cutler on the roster. They went 0-16 anyways, so they should punish themselves, hehehe.

    If the skip there turn when the time is up the next team can draft and the original can draft at any time. The original team would still pay the contract value associated with their draft spot.

    This happened a couple years ago actually..


    If a team's time runs out.. Any team left in the round can get their card in until the original team chooses.

    Not any team, the next team on the clock can go ahead a make a selection.

    They don't lose their pick they just slide back.

    You sure? I remember the Chiefs, Jags and Vikings had this happen. Jags missed their turn and the Chiefs picked Ryan Sims then Vikings picked Bryant McKinnie then Leftwich for the Jags..

    In 2003, the Vikings were supposedly trying to work out a trade. They didn't turn their card in on time. Jacksonville was next on the clock so they quickly went up and turned in their card for Leftwich. Then the Panthers, who were next, selected Jordan Gross before the Vikings finally turned in their card for Kevin Williams.

    So then there is no benefit to missing their turn?

    I know that this is some what differant, but the same princible could be aplied.

    In '86, Bo Jackson said that if Tampa Bay drafted with their #1 pick, he would play baseball instead. Tampa thought he was bluffing and went ahead a drafted him. I believe it was the next day that Bo anounced that he was going to play baseball instead.

    I don't know why, but he was allowed to be registered of the '87 draft and the Raiders were able to get him in the 7th round with the 183rd over all pick. To the best of my knowledge, Tampa Bay didn't receive any compensation for the theft of that #1 pick.
