Re: Fanspeak 2017 NFL Draft Simulator
I've never been sold on Vaccarro after his first season. I would rather have Peppers at SS.

Bubba is good but at 32 seem like a reach to replace Byrd move the media guru. Nothing against Bubba even at 5'9" with 30" arms his instincts might be the best in the daft. Want to take Bubba in the 2nd I could live with it. Actually think he may fall to 3rd due to his height. He probably wont be alone either. Adoree' Jackson and Jourdan Lewis both might suffer same fate. In our division, which may have the tallest WR on average than any other division in the NFL, height is a major concern of mine. Besides with so many teams picking in the top ten of round 2 looking for QBs this should be a hot pick to trade and get over paid for and still get a solid player in round 2 to fill a need and pick up a few later round picks to make this Cook trade more fan friendly. my short list Jabrill Peppers SS/FS/OLB/KR Michigan 6002 205 4.42 #5 rSo Christian McCaffrey RB/WR/KR Stanford 5115 205 4.48 Jr. Zach Cunningham MLB/OLB Vanderbilt 6032 230 4.67 #41 rJr Garret Bolles OT/OG/DT Utah 6050 296 4.97 #75 Jr Tre'Davious White, CB, LSU 5111 191 4.48 Jr T.J. Watt OLB/DE/TE Wisconsin 6044 252 4.69 #42 rJr invest in the future and take huge gamble on players? Haason Reddick, ILB, Temple 6014 237 4.54 #58 rSr Obi Melifonwu FS/SS/OLB UConn 6037 224 4.40 #20 rSr Besides we traded up for a FS/CB in the second last year. later in the draft day 2/3 Josh Jones SS/FS/LB N.C. State 6013 220 4.41 #11 rJr Jones as a SS i really like Rayshawn Jenkins FS Miami 6010 214 4.51 #26 rSr Trade back and get some picks and draft these two would be a step in the right direction. Instant impact on special teams while you work on their number one flaw. Aggression is a huge assets that they have yet learned to control it a bit. |

Re: Fanspeak 2017 NFL Draft Simulator
Baker will get smoked in single high sets if left alone because of his limited height...
With today's game of flag football on the perimeter, just don't see taking him that high... The safety to turn the light on for the Saints is SS Josh Jones in the mid/late third round... Reminds me of a Steve Atwater type; let him tutelage behind Vaccaro; eval Kenny V next season, and you'll have a great candidate for the next season... |

Re: Fanspeak 2017 NFL Draft Simulator
First Pick Sim with trades
A few trades up and down and the last few are a bit shot in the dark but wouldnt be unhappy Round 1 Pick 14 (PHI): Taco Charlton, DE/OLB, Michigan (A-) Round 1 Pick 32: Deshaun Watson, QB, Clemson (A+) Round 2 Pick 10: Evan Engram, TE/WR, Ole Miss (A-) Round 2 Pick 13 (ARI): Obi Melifonwu, SS, Connecticut (B-) Round 3 Pick 12: JuJu Smith-Schuster, WR, Southern California (B+) Round 3 Pick 39 (COMP): Joe Mixon, RB, Oklahoma (A+) Round 4 Pick 13 (ARI): Rasul Douglas, CB, West Virginia (A+) Round 5 Pick 13 (ARI): Kyle Kalis, OG, Michigan (D) Round 6 Pick 12: Josh Harvey-Clemons, SS/OLB, Louisville (B+) Round 7 Pick 11: Storm Norton, OT, Toledo (B) Not quite as defensive as i would have gone but taking value when its there |
"Two receivers to the left, Garcon to the right. Manning in the shotgun, puts Collie in motion. Looks in his direction...it's picked off! It's picked off! It's Tracy Porter again! He's runnin' free! He's gonna go all the way!
