The Bluedude caught up with Broncos Former General Manager Ted Sundquist who has over 16 Years of NFL Draft Expertise and Back-to-Back Super Bowl Rings ('97-'98) with the Orange Crush and expanded more on the EYE-Draft with an Exclusive Q and A with the Bluedude and Bluedude Sportstalk :
TS = Ted Sundquist
BD = Bluedude
BD: What is EYE-Draft?
TS: Eye-Draft is an opportunity for professional football fans to put their knowledge and understanding of college football talent up against NFL General Managers, Player Personnel Directors, and Head Coaches. Using those exact same selection order, rules and guidelines, and the entering College Player Pool...Fans can represent their Favorite Team or Teams and attempt to match the Club's Own Draft Selections in the 2013 NFL Draft.
BD: Your Background with the NFL and your Partner's Background?
TS: I spent 16 years with the Denver Broncos as both Director of College Scouting and General Manager. I was part of the winning Back-to-back Super Bowls ('97 & '98) and 8 Playoff Appearances. I sat on numerous committees that guided the Policies and Procedures of Player Personnel in the NFL. Steve Burkett is my Partner in Eye-Scout/Eye-Draft and the President of SL1. He has more than 12 years of expertise in resolving tactical systems development issues related to all levels of interoperability (module, system, functional area, system of systems, Army, Joint, and Allied), as well as in the development and evaluation of system implementations of Information processing and information modeling disciplines.
BD: How does EYE-Draft work?
TS: Participants choose which Team they'd like to "GM", study and evaluate the College Players using their Own Information and for some of the Tools and Links presented by EYE-Draft, build their own Draft Board on these evaluations, and then execute a "Real Time" Draft against the 31 other Clubs in an attempt to match the Selections their "Actual Club" will make in the 2013 NFL Draft. The EYE-Draft will use the Exact Rules laid out for the 32 NFL Clubs regarding Selections and Trades. EYE-Draft will take place the Week before the Real NFL Draft. ( BD = The 2013 NFL Draft starts April 25th 2013).
BD: Is this comparable to Fantasy or Mock Drafts...if not explain?
TS: Unlike Fantasy, EYE-Draft challenges the Fan to think and execute like the actual Front Office of their represented Team on the NFL Draft Day. Fans must take into account current Roster, Cap Ramifications, Player Evaluations, and so forth in a similar manner to the Real GM's, Personnel Directors, and Head Coaches. Fans aren't picking their favorite players for an All-Star Team, rather they'll be trying to forecast actual selections, under real time scenarios, as if they were the final Decision Maker.
Mock Drafts are more about predicting a round or rounds from an entire League perspective, influenced by 3rd party evaluations/mocks and not always taking into consideration the various situations, scenarios, and needs of the individual clubs.
BD: Where do we Sign-Up for the 2013 EYE-Draft?
TS: Go to www.Eye-Draft.com to pre-register and to be placed on the mailing List for the actual Launch of Eye-Draft.
