Comment Thread (Mock Draft)

Robinson was my original trade up target. I had a few backup plans, including the two DL that went right before him, and would have preferred a trade down once it got to me, but decided to reach a little for Bell. That wasn't so much a homer pick, as a combination of huge need and very limited options to fill it.

Almost doubled up at DB for Tennessee with William Jackson III. That pick was basically a coinflip.

Yeah, I was watching Mackenzie fall and thinking how great it would be if that happened, but Jackson is not a bad consolation prize. I expect both of them to go at the end of the 1st irl.

After that three DL run, Mackenzie wasn't getting past Cleveland. Not really a need, but I wouldn't have been able to pass up that value/upside.

 

[femurov]

Yup... I did it.

I think the Giants are a great possibility right there for Smith in real life.

 

[Xulu Bak]

Smith is one of the more intriguing prospects in this class. He's a top ten talent, but not much reason for optimism about his leg. Torn ACL/MCL is one thing. Nerve damage is quite another.

Sending a proxy for Oakland and Detroit

i figured with the extra pick from Indy, why not?

I'm all for the Rams trading up to get Goff, but I have my doubts that they will. This is such a Jeff Fisher type draft that I have going on. Slow WR, mediocre QB, run blocking TE. The trifecta of a Fisher offense.

I actually had a pick posted for about 10 seconds, then saw Xulu's request to trade up and erased it. If someone saw it or cries foul play, I'll repost it and move on, but if Xulu is around to trade I'd like to listen.

 

[Draft Crazy]

How long do we have to wait?

 

[femurov]

Not long. I think the final offer was just send and I'm waiting on Xulu to reply, which he has been doing quickly.

 

[Xulu Bak]

Two picks and neither were my target. I predict we'll make it about 13 more, then my guy will go.

 

[SpringStein]

Go take a break, gents. JB, being in Hawaii, won't be up for awhile.

 

[Draft Crazy]

No need to take a break. Ill have JB's pick soon.

I was wrong.

I'm really liking how this draft has shaped up for the Vikings but not so much for the Jets. Feel like I have reached just a bit because of just such glaring needs compared to the Vikings where need and value fell just right.

Apparently the Steelers have a dedicated scout on the ground in Waco.

 

[Ellis269]

Nice pick for the Steelers. Had Howard high up on my list for the Patriots two picks coming up here.
