is this consider cheesy to do for FOF


on draft time, trade your top first round first pick down to another team below your pick, knowing you can look at there roster and see what position they need...

and if they need another position that you have no interest on, then just trade you pick to them, then go to the next team below you and do the same thing again, etc

i wish this part can be improve on and maybe hide what the other teams needs is during the draft...

I don't think the idea is cheesy. Maybe doing this repeatedly within the first round may be a bit cheesy however.

But you know that everyone in the NFL knows the other team's strengths and weaknesses. So knowing what position another team needs is not a big secret at all. I mean if Mel Kiper knows what teams need...you know that teams know what other teams need.

You mean the TV guys aren't privy to inside information?

See: Vikings moving down 1 spot with Miami, picking up a 4th round pick and Udeze

talking about doing it mulitply times trading down because you know what position the computer team need is..

maybe trading just one time down is not cheesy

I don't think it's cheesy. Whenever I take over a sucky team I can usually trade down several times and still get a good player. I don't look so much at what another team needs, I usually pick out two or three players and keep trading down until only is left. I can usually pick up enough picks to help navigate back up and select players.

Football teams give up all kinds of players, other draft picks to get a higher slot in the upcoming draft.

For a lot of people (including me), making draft day trades can be the most fun part of the game. And, at bottom, aren't we supposed to be having fun?

No. No fun allowed!

FWIW, I consider it a bit cheesy, but who cares?

Not cheesy. In the eNFL, I traded down I think three times before finally making a selection.

There's a difference between trading with real GMs and screwing the AI. :)
