    Hello, we run a website (acenfldrafts.com/), where we provide coverage of the NFL Draft. We are looking to expand our website, and would love to bring on a few writers to the site. Right now, we focus on an angle of the prospects, but would love to look at the draft from multiple points of view, such as what the NFL team needs, what type of team the prospect would be a good fit on, and many different more. We are also open to ideas that the writers would bring to the table, and you will have a lot of freedom on who and what you write about.

    With this being a new website, we are unable to pay the writers, but believe in the future if we can continue to grow, compensation would be given in the future. This is something that would be great for college students looking to gain experience. If you are interested, please send a resume and three writing samples to us at acenfldrafts@gmail.com

    Not to be a jerk, but if you are unable to pay writers, your post does not belong on this board. "Freelance" does not mean we write for free. This is a message board for professionals.

    In other words, pay or GTFO.

    Just cause you're not interested doesn't mean someone else isn't. Thank you.

    Sorry 23, but this historically has not been a good place to solicit free work, with many of those here who are still in the business seeing their work devalued on a daily basis for the past several years. I understand the idea that it is good to get exposure and clips if you are just starting out, but asking people to put in their valuable time for no payout just doesn't fly.
