Smash, is Broderick Jones the type to shift in to guard? I don't really watch college ball so I'm not familiar with the players. I can see depth at tackle being a need, but in the 1st?

No need to draft players (Davenport, Turner & jury still out on Penning) no one has heard of, only to see them often injured and/or missing substantial time.

The simulator is heavy on trading down. I tend to agree we need to amass way more picks by trading down.

I have no clue. I just lazily used the simulator to play.

A trade down isn't in Loomis' vocabulary. He has literally never traded down in his whole career. I believe I read last year that he had traded up 25 times and never traded down. I can't see him starting now. As he has said himself, the front office philosophy has always been "quality over quantity." I just can't see them shifting gears away from that. But, I guess there can always be a first time.

Who knows?
