...Round 2 Pick 24 (OAK): Obi Melifonwu, SS, Connecticut (B)
Round 2 Pick 25 (HOU): Sidney Jones, CB, Washington (B-)
Round 2 Pick 32 (CAR): Fabian Moreau, CB/FS, UCLA (B+)
Round 3 Pick 12: Joe Mixon, RB, Oklahoma (A-)
Round 3 Pick 24 (OAK): Cooper Kupp, WR, Eastern Washington (A)
Round 3 Pick 39 (COMP): Davis Webb, QB, California (A-)...
Obi-wan may go in the first round...

Jones is no higher than a third round pick with a busted achilles...

Moreau is hard to gauge right now; but I still see him the first 50 picks...

Really hope we don't take Mixon; girl he punched may be questionable, but he still suckerpunched a girl...

Kupp is gonna be a good one, but I like Chad Hansen of Cal better...

I'd be shocked if Davis Webb is still on the board when Round 3 starts...

There it is. Thanks for putting it into words JP. I'd rather draft no one at eleven than any of the quarterbacks out there. Turn it into more picks further back instead.

I am hoping all the QBs are on the board at 11 and the saints phones are ringing with those crazy over priced trade offers to get to the first QB on their board before Cleveland picks.

Great black mail stuff. A simple flip of picks with the Browns could change the enter draft for the saints at those over valued prices.

swap seconds. 33 end of day 1 and pick 33 at the start of day 2. by all odds would be huge.
gotta get pick 145 round 5 to start off day 3
and whatever else we can milk out of them.

Re: Fanspeak 2017 NFL Draft Simulator

Okay, I'm really warming to the idea that McCaffrey could be our Shady (Lesean McCoy), so I ran with it...

Pick No. 011 (R1, P11) RB Christian McCaffrey, Stanford

Pick No. 032 (R1, P32) DL Malik McDowell, Michigan

Pick No. 042 (R2, P10) LB T.J. Watt, Wisconsin

Pick No. 076 (R3, P12) CB Ahkello Witherspoon, Colorado

Pick No. 103 (R3, P39) WR Chad Hansen, California

Pick No. 196 (R6, P12) LB Jordan Evans, Oklahoma

Pick No. 229 (R7, P11) QB Chad Kelly, Ole Miss

I'd be very, very happy with this haul; but it was a fluke McDowell fell all the way to 32...

I'm starting to believe Allen could fall like Bama's D-linemen fell last year; great player, but the arthritis thing is a bit worrisome...

Players have got to be available as Payton says...

Really like Watt, but I'm starting to see how he could be a reach for some teams in the first round...

He's projected for right where we'll be in the second round, and I'd love him as a linebacker to compete with Ellerbe...

Watt, Moreau and Evans are among my favorites for this draft...

See Kittle as a fourth, fifth round pick, but you're right that teams may reach late in the third as they're not alot of good TEs in the league right now...

Even if he can play through it, would he still be 100%?

Re: Fanspeak 2017 NFL Draft Simulator

That was purely what was there and for fun. Some of the players rounds are way off.

Trubisky went in the second.

Yeah, it's not a fool proof simulator, but you get an idea that as certain players come off the board, what could transpire...
