[blstoker]

I've seen a couple people do this, so I'll give it a shot. I really like my draft.

Seattle Seahawks

Key Returners:
Offense - Russell Wilson, Doug Baldwin, Jimmy Graham, Tyler Lockett, Jermaine Kearse, Thomas Rawls
Defense - Richard Sherman, Earl Thomas, Kam Chancellor, Bobby Wagner, Michael Bennett, Cliff Avril

Free agent signings:
OT J'Marcus Webb, DE Chris Clemons, DT Sealver Siliga, OT Bradley Sowell, CB Brandon Browner

Picks:
1.26.26 - Sheldon Rankins, DT Louisville
2.25.57 - Jerald Hawkins, OT LSU
3.21.85 - Joshua Perry, OLB Ohio State
3.35.99 - Connor McGovern, OG Missouri
4.23.123 - Jack Allen, C Michigan St.
5.34.175 - Daryl Worley, CB West Virginia
6.40.219 - Cody Core, WR Mississippi
7.4.229 - Marshaun Coprich, RB Illinois St.
7.26-251 - Destiny Vaeao, DT Washington State

The Seahawks don't have a huge list of needs, so other than needing linemen, it was a free for all of players would could come in and provide depth.

Sheldon Rankins (DT, 6'1" 299) Coming into the draft I was targetting Taylor Decker 1, and Jason Spriggs 2, Germain Ifedi 3, but I had Rankins rated between #10 & #15, so to have him fall (and Decker off the board) I went BPA, since he was much higher rated for me than the two remaining guys on my list. Too, bad neither of them fell to me in the second, but Rankins will be able to come in and get immediate snaps at DT with Seattle losing a starter and playing a rotation of guys. He should be able to make an impact on a top rated defense, day 1.

Jerald Hawkins (OT, 6'6" 305) I felt the pressure for line help in the second and went with who I felt was the best tackle possible. Different sites think differently of him, but he should be able to compete for a starting role at either left or right tackle as a rookie along the uncertain Seahawk offensive line. He isn't the typical style of tackle Cable likes, but eventually the Hawks are gonna have to learn that pass blocking for your $20 million man is just as important as run blocking.

Joshua Perry (OLB, 6'4" 254) Another guy who some sites like and others don't, but the guy can play - and he has the versatility to be able to move to the outside (where he started in college before moving inside, I believe). With Irvin gone, there is a void in the defense and a spot to be won, and right now the rumor is that Frank Clark may drop weight to compete for it, but there needs to be someone to compete with.

Connor McGovern (OG, 6'4" 306) Now this is more like Cable's speed. Big, physical run blocker, and with the OL in shambles, McGovern could start day one and force Webb to the bench. Seattle needs OL help, and even if he doesn't win the job, getting young depth would be great.

Jack Allen (C, 6'1" 294) Another guy who seems to be a Cable style guy. He isn't the most athletic, but he's tough, a leader and he's intelligent. The line played much better when Patrick Lewis took the starting job last year, but he isn't untouchable there as he didn't even win the job out of camp last year (Drew Nowak, a guy eventually dropped to the practice squad). Allen will provide good depth, and may be able to beat Lewis at C.

Daryl Worley (CB, 6'1" 204) A little raw, but very talented guy who could be a younger Richard Sherman. He has good skills with the ball in the air, and like Sherman earlier in his career isn't the most fluid guy. The "other" CB spot last year was an issue, and though they brought back Jeremy Lane (who missed all but 6 games) and brought Brandon Browner back from the past, Worley may be able to see himself competing with Browner - and could push the old man out. 5th round and later has been good for Seattle with DBs.

Cody Core (WR, 6'3" 205) I really like his meassurables, but there are some things of concern. He has too many passes he bobbles, which will be easy to take away in the NFL, so he'll need to clean that up. That said, he has blazing speed for a 6'3" guy, and will be able to give Seattle another threat. After Kearse, the WRs are inexperienced and in some cases, injury prone. There is a spot for a guy like Core, if he can come in and take it.

Marshaun Coprich (RB, 5'8" 207) Seattle needs a change of pace behind Rawls, and Coprich could fill that void. Despite Michael having a decent time at the end of last year, there are still questions about his ability to fill the role of 3rd down back in Seattle's offense. Coprich seems to be a little more willing to pass protect. Seattle already shipped Michael out once after benching him for 2 years and investing a 2nd round pick in him, so it isn't too far a stretch to think he could be shipped out again.

Destiny Vaeao (DT, 6'4" 298) People who haven't seen Vaeao play may think that a seventh invested in him would mean he's just a depth pick at best, but Vaeao has been the anchor of a surprisingly good Cougar defense over the last 2 years. He's a disruptive force in the middle, and he will have a chance to beat out some players from years past who may be hoping the depleted line is their chance to see more playing time. With some additional training, Vaeao could be a late round steal.

Overall: For a team that is still one of the deepest rosters in the league, I view that the first 5 picks have genuine chances to win starting jobs, which would see this draft having an immediate impact on the team. The back half is full of promise, and could be gold - or just more late round meh. Overall, these players exceed the expectations coming in, and this would be an awesome haul.

Idk if it's a big deal or not about saying who you voted for(I don't think it would be), but I had the Seahawks in my top 5.

Very good draft. I prolly should've put ya in my top 5.


Like I said tho...this part was tough.


Cody Core in the 6th is pretty great.

6.38.217 : Aaron Wallace - OLB - UCLA
7.7.232 : Beau Sandland - TE - Montana St.



The 49ers have a lot of issues. We have a lot of holes to fill. My Goal was to find as many players that can start in year 1 and find some that may add depth in year 1 and maybe fight for a starting spot next year. In the end I think I did that. I traded back a couple of times to add more picks. I ended up with 2 1st rd picks and 2 2nd rd picks.

Kevin Dodd (DE, 6'5" 277) I really wanted Buckner but knew I also knew I had to back into the 1st rd and add another 2nd rd pick. I was ok with Lawson or Dodd. Im actually a Big fan of Dodd and feel he might be the Top 3 pass rusher in the draft. At 6'5 277 and his speed he should start on the opposite side of Armstead. Nice Young core for SF. He ended with 43 QB hurries and 12 sacks.

Paxton Lynch (QB, 6'7 244) Im not a big fan of this QB class but know 49ers need to take one. I feel Lynch upside is just as high as the Top 2 QB's in this draft. Im not a Huge fan of him but feel he can be successful in the NFL. He has great NFL body. Reminds me of Big Ben. He is quicker then Big Ben ran 40 in 4.86.
Very tall, athletic body with ability to scan over the top. Elite foot quickness for a tall quarterback. Can maneuver quickly out of a busy pocket and away from trouble, but desires to keep passing option alive. this is a guy that can compete in year 1 and take over by Year 2.

Nick Martin (C, 6'4" 299) I had to take this pick. Best center in the Draft and fell to me at the end of the 2nd rd. This is a guy that will start from Day 1. This is a double move for the 49ers on the Oline. Kilgore goes to Guard. So we make a double upgrade on the Oline. Plays with a mean streak and then some. Finishes a block with authority if he gets the advantage.

Kendall Fuller (Cb, 5'11" 187) All about talent here. 49ers can use an upgrade in the secondary. This was my take a Chance pick. Before this year he was Top 2 CB in the country. Injury held him back. Has some Injury concerns but the talent he has I had to take a chance. Has a shot to be a Shut down CB in the NFL. Starter/Depth Player year 1, year 2 Starter.

Vadal Alexander (OG 6'5" 326) 49ers Oline is a little of a mess but now I think it will be a strength by year 2 after this draft. This guy will start by year 2. I feel one of the better Guards in the country. Mammoth frame will give him a size advantage over just about everyone he lines up against. Is at his best as a downhill blocker. By Adding Martin and Alexander and moving Kilgore to Guard, 49ers will have a good Oline with in 2 years.

Cole Toner (OT, 6'5" 306) Drafting of another Big OL. This pick is for Depth and Future Tackle starter. Staley is getting up in age. This is for Insurance. Appears to have adequate foot quickness to redirect back inside and is able to mirror rushers. Careful with his punch and won’t give away hands too early. Fires off a heavy, well-timed punch with some heat behind it.

Josh Forrest (ILB, 6'3" 249) This is another Depth Pick and Future player. I really like his upside. Quick ILB ran a 4.78 40. He is still raw. Still learning the game. Gets better every year. Give him 2-3 years. Long-limbed and athletic. Was used all over the field by Kentucky staff. Has 202 tackles during his two-year stint as starter. Has plus chase speed. Lateral quickness is a strength.

Daniel Braverman (WR, 5'10" 177) I will start off with go watch the OSU game. This kid will be a nice slot WR in the NFL. He has the quickness in and out of his routes. Yes he is a little small but he is tough.
Has honed his craft with sneaky shake moves from his break points. Able to create throwing windows with his suddenness and route speed variation


Aaron Wallace (OLB, 6'3" 240) Well-built with good muscular definition. Slightly pigeon-toed with explosive burst upfield to threaten tackles. Quick-twitch athlete. Plus lateral quickness and good knee bend in his play. Has enough juice to be a true edge rusher. Love the Upside here. Depth move. Possible replacement of Brooks. Steal in the 6th rd.

Beau Sandland (TE, 6'4, 253) Got to love the name. He is from a small school Montana St.
Athletic frame with good mass and room for more. Exceptional arm length and hand size for the position. Capable seam worker. Long strides in vertical routes can overtake squatting safeties. Why not make this pick. 49ers could use a TE.

Overall: I couldn't be happier with my 49ers draft. I found 4-5 guys that will play in year 1 and I think another 2-3 by year 2. With my 1st 5 picks I think all have a chance to start in year 1. Lynch will take a little time but with Gabbert as the starter I think Lynch could pass him by week 10. Don't forget in this Draft I went on the assumption that 49ers traded Kap. This is why I drafted this way. I think at the end my draft I drafted some guys with some major upside for late in the draft. They just need some more experience.
My Fav Pick: Fuller end of the 2nd rd. This Kid has super star potential. Close 2nd was Vadal in the 3rd. I have him in my top 2 in guards. Guy is a beast.

KANSAS CITY CHIEFS

1.28.28 : Chris Jones - DE - Mississippi St.

I was targeting William Jackson III but I didn't have the ammo to move up but that might have been a blessing in disguise. Chris Jones is really high on my big board as basically an ideal 3-4 DE prospect. PFF had him #10 overall at all positions last year IIRC and his film against LSU and Lousiana Tech was fantastic against great running attacks. Mike Devito actually retired after I made this pick which made 3-4 DE a real need on the Chiefs but Devito's age always made this appealing. Chiefs generally take the 'hulk smash' approach to trenches and Jones looks like he has the frame to get stronger. I've seen Jones all over the place on Big Boards but I think he is a legit first rounder.

2.28.60 : Karl Joseph - SS - West Virginia

I only had Joseph 7 slots lower than Jones so getting him a round later was definitely BPA. I had Jospeh as the highest rated safety "if he was healthy" with his ability to play both safety positions. Eric Berry is fantastic for the Chiefs but the Chiefs just had a Safety retire and one leave in Free Agency and Berry is only on a franchise tag. A lot of Chiefs fans like Parker at Safety but Ive seen his coverage skills and they just flat out stink so its possible the Chiefs might need an upgrade there long term and certainly need some depth.

4.28.128 : James Bradberry - CB - Samford

The Maclin fiasco not giving me a third rounder really limited my ability to pick up a CB. They were targeted fairly highly in the draft and I didn't want to grab one until this point. Bradberry fits the physical mold that Gaines and Peters share so he can sit behind Gaines for a year and add some depth. Bradberry has the size and combine stats of a top flight CB but he might need some work. Ill take that in rd4.

5.25.166 : Devon Cajuste - WR/TE - Stanford

A Lance Kendricks hybrid type with good hands and agility but overshadowed in Stanford's offense. Best 3 cone at the whole combine I do believe. I've seen plenty of Lance Kendricks and I his main issue is that his hands are made of bricks but is otherwise a solid blocker and gets open on a regular basis. I think a better version of that type of player could see some action for Kansas City.

5.28.169 : Alex McCalister - OLB - Florida

A boom/bust talent. Basically a 1st-2nd round talent with major issues. Easily worth the risk at this point. Chiefs have good pass rushing depth right now but McCalister has an outside chance of being able to step up and fill in the hole left by the Justin Houston injury. Or at the very least adds more competition for that role. Tamba Hali isnt getting any younger, either, and Dee Ford still has a lot to prove.

6.28.207 : Harlan Miller - CB - Southeastern Louisiana

I had him as a 4th round talent. At some point, SportsHoopla stopped picking CBs and overloaded on linebackers and offensive linemen so Miller was BPA by a large amount for me.

7.28.253 : Ted Karras - OG - Illinois

Just a strong guy to fit in the middle for offensive line depth. Maybe a little on the stiff side but a brute and thats what the Chiefs look for up the middle as far as I can tell.


I liked my draft a lot but I'm not sure I had the ammo to really get the exact players I wanted.

BUFFALO BILLS

1.19.19 : Laquon Treadwell - WR - Ole Miss : This guy is really good
2.18.50 : Germain Ifedi - OT - Texas A&M : Really good player here
3.17.81 : Charles Tapper - DE - Oklahoma : I really like this player
4.19.119 : Jihad Ward - DE - Illinois : Very good player here
4.41.141 : Denver Kirkland - OG - Arkansas : Good player at this point of the draft
5.18.159 : Josh Ferguson - RB - Illinois : Good back here
6.17.196 : Nate Sudfeld - QB - Indiana : Great potential here
6.43.222 : De'Vondre Campbell - OLB - Minnesota : Very good value this late

Vote for me, I drafted really good players!

Chicago Bears

Key Returners:
Offense: Alshon Jeffrey, Zach Miller
Defense: Tracy Porter

Key Departures:
Offense: Matt Forte, Martellus Bennett
Defense: Jarvis Jenkins, Shea McClellin

Key FA signings:
Offense: Bobby Massie (RT)
Defense: Danny Trevathan, Jerrell Freeman, Akiem Hicks

Picks:

1.11.11 - Vernon Hargreaves III - CB, Florida
2.10.42 - Jason Spriggs - OT, Indiana
3.9.73 - Yannick Ngakoue - OLB/DE - Maryland
4.8.108 - Kyler Fackrell - OLB, Utah St.
4.29.129 - K.J. Dillon - SS, West Virginia
5.11.152 - Nick Vannett - TE, Ohio St.
6.31.210 - Matt Ioannidis - DT, Temple
7.9.234 - B.J. Goodson - ILB, Clemson

I think the Bears' arrow is pointing up. They brought in an excellent coaching staff last year, and I think it's already paying dividends. They still lack overall talent on Defense and their o-line is still a bit shady on the left side. I really don't think losing Forte and Bennett will hurt that much, and I absolutely love the FA signings. My goal was to get a few day one starters/playmakers and to add some depth on D. I think I did ok. TBH, I wasn't much into this at first, but as it progressed I became hooked. Not being a huge college fan, this experience has made me look forward to the real draft, more than ever.

1. Vernon Hargreaves III - CB, Florida

Kid is a day-one starter and is definitely a playmaker. My thoughts are that he can lineup opposite of 3rd yr pro, Kyle Fuller and they can bump Tracy Porter into the Nickel spot. Would be more than happy if he fell that far in the real draft. Don't think he will.

2. Jason Spriggs OT, Indiana

Should definitely be able to find a home on that left side somewhere. Again, would looove to see him there at No. 42, but I won't bet the farm on it. One of the top OTs in the draft IMO.

3. Yannick Ngakoue - OLB/DE - Maryland

Should be able to find his way into some rotational playing time. A bit undersized, but will play Special Teams and provide some depth at the position.

4. Kyler Fackrell - OLB, Utah St.

Lengthy standup rusher that is an exceptional athlete. High motor, high-character guy. Love this pick.

5. K.J. Dillon - SS, West Virginia

Overshadowed by teammate Karl Joseph...KJ stepped up and looked the part, when Joseph got hurt. Bit of a project, but some serious potential, IMO.

6. Nick Vannett - TE, Ohio St.

Total steal in the 5th round IMO. Pretty much the 3rd ranked TE in the draft in most mocks. I would actually expect him to contribute right away, due to Martellus' departure. Was giddy to see him still available here.

7. Matt Ioannidis, DT, Temple

Another steal IMO. High-motor, high-character guy. Nothing flashy or spectacular, but consistent. Another late rounder that could actually see some playing time, as the Bears are somewhat thin at the position.

8. B.J. Goodson - ILB, Clemson

Another pick I loved. The second half of my draft, may be my favorite. This kid has a nasty disposition. He's another high-character guy. Captain of his Defense. In round 7, I couldn't have been happier.


I like my draft. I had a helluva fun time doing it, and would like to thank @Nosferatu for inviting me to play.

Chicago was on the edge of my top 5. Very solid mock.

WASHINGTON REDSKINS

Team Needs according to Walter Football: ILB, CB, S, C, DT, RB, QB (all checked off in draft)

1.21.21 : Jarran Reed - DT – Alabama #1 DT according to ESPN
2.22.54 : Vonn Bell - SS - Ohio St. #1 Safety according to ESPN
4.2.102 : Pharoh Cooper - WR - South Carolina #9 WR according to ESPN & Walter Football
4.22.122 : Blake Martinez - ILB – Stanford #8 ILB according to ESPN
4.26.126 : Eric Murray - CB – Minnesota #9 CB according to ESPN
5.21.162 : Evan Boehm - C – Missouri #6 C according to ESPN & Walter Football
6.7.186 : Roberto Aguayo - K - Florida St. #1 K according to Everyone
6.12.191 : Keenan Reynolds - QB/RB – Navy NCAA Div 1 record holder with 88 TD’s & NCAA record 4,559 rushing yards for a quarterback.

Washington Redskins accomplished their needs of drafting team needs and player value. Kicker was not a need but Aguayo has connected on 81 percent, 90 percent, and 96 percent of his field goal attempts over the past three seasons which could help any team in the NFL. I chose Reynolds because of his versatility and many scouts feel Belichick will grab Reynolds because he can play many roles. He can be the 3rd string QB, 3rd down back since Redd is suspended or provide wide receiver depth in the slot. I love how I got 3 projected #1 per positions in this draft and quality players as well throughout the draft.

TRADES : 3.21 to Seattle for 4.11, 4.26 & 7.19
4.11 & 7.21 to Philadelphia for 4.2
7.11 & 7.19 to Baltimore for 6.7

Jarran Reed, DT, Alabama
Height: 6-3. Weight: 311. Arm: 32. Hand 10.76.
40 Time: 5.21.
Projected Round (2016): 1. (Selected 1.21.21) Great value
4/16/16: Teams picking in the middle of the first round have told me that Reed is in the running for their first-round pick. He is a good run stuffer, but doesn't offer a lot in the pass rush. Reed does have the speed and athleticism to develop more pass-rushing skills as a professional though.

Vonn Bell*, S, Ohio State
Height: 5-11. Weight: 205.
Projected 40 Time: 4.66.
Projected Round (2015): 2-3. (Selected 2.21.54) Great value
4/9/16: Bell played well in 2015 with two interceptions, 65 tackles and nine passes broken up. Generally, he was solid - minus a few coverage lapses on occasion. Bell is a quality run defender who has some versatility in pass coverage. He can play some free safety and nickel cornerback. That versatility could cause his stock to rise late in the draft process.

Pharoh Cooper*, WR, South Carolina
Height: 5-11. Weight: 203. Arm: 32.25. Hand: 9.13.
Projected 40 Time: 4.49.
Projected Round (2016): 2-3. (Selected 4.2.102) Steal 2 rounds later
4/2/16: In 2015, Cooper recorded 66 receptions for 973 yards and eight touchdowns. He played well, and it could have been an even bigger season if quarterback play hadn't been such a weakness for South Carolina.
Cooper is a shifty slot receiver with quickness to challenge a defense and get separation from defensive backs. He entered the 2016 NFL Draft rather than return to South Carolina.

Blake Martinez, ILB, Stanford
Height: 6-0. Weight: 233. Arm: 30.88. Hand: 9.
40 Time: 4.71.
Projected Round (2016): 3-5. (4.22.122) Great value in 4th
4/16/16: Martinez had an excellent senior year, making a lot of critical tackles for Stanford. He was the Cardinal's most steady defender. In 2015, Martinez totaled 141 tackles with 6.5 for a loss, 1.5 sacks, six passes broken up and one interception. He had 101 tackles as a junior. Martinez is a good tackler with quality instincts. He had an average week at the Senior Bowl though. At the combine, Martinez had a solid performance.

Eric Murray, CB, Minnesota
Height: 5-10. Weight: 198. Arm: 31.5. Hand: 9.
40 Time: 4.49.
Projected Round (2016): 3-5. (Selected 4.26.126) Great value in 4th
4/9/16: Murray is a thick, physical, gritty corner who battles receivers. He would be best as a zone corner in the NFL. At the combine, Murray ran faster than expected. He could be a mid-round sleeper who proves to be a quality NFL starter.

Evan Boehm, C, Missouri
Height: 6-2. Weight: 309. Arm: 31.63. Hand: 10.25.
40 Time: 5.33.
Projected Round (2016): 4-6. (Selected 5.21.162) Great value in 4th
Iron man. Holds school record for consecutive starts. Suffered high-ankle sprain in the first game of the year, but was right back on the field the next game. Rare power from a center. Phone booth champ. Able to consistently generate push at initial point of attack and take control of the neutral zone. Runs his feet under him at contact and drives the sled while staying glued to his man. Tough and smart. Quickly processes double A-gap looks and responds successfully. Has power to redirect when beaten on the edge

Roberto Aguayo, K, Florida State
Height: 6-1. Weight: 204.
Projected Round (2016): 4-6. (Selected 6.7.186) Steal 2 rounds later
3/5/16: Aguayo is one of the top kickers in college football history and was a three-time First-Team All-American. He connected on 81 percent, 90 percent, and 96 percent of his field goal attempts over the past three seasons, respectively. Aguayo has a strong leg and never missed an extra point over three years. With the change of the NFL's extra point rules, Aguayo is even more valuable. He is a rare prospect who could go in the early rounds on the third day of the draft.

Keenan Reynolds, RB/WR/QB, Navy
Height: 5-10. Weight: 205.
Projected Round (2016): 5-7 (Selected 6.12.191)
No quarterback in FBS history has more career rushing yards than Navy's Keenan Reynolds, who tallied 4,559 rushing yards over the last four seasons. He also set the Division-I record for total touchdowns (88) and finished fifth in the 2015 Heisman Trophy voting.
