day 2 picks i don't like



Some picks I didn’t like
1. Mitch Morse – OL Kansas City. There are players I just couldn’t get enough film on to give them an adequate draft grade, and that’s why they aren’t on my board. However, those guys are clearly draftable players like Eric Rowe or Tyler Kroft. Mitch Morse I had plenty of film on and still didn’t give him a grade. He went in the second round. Not a good selection.

2. Jake Fisher – OT Cincinnati. It’s not that I don’t like the player, he’s a good player. However, now the team has four tackles on the team and still they don’t have anyone who can rush the passer. I don’t get that. I understand some teams go with the best player available mantra, but you can’t have four tackles on your roster and have your top two picks sit and watch.

3. Rob Havenstein – RT St Louis. I love that they wanted to go get a right tackle, I just wouldn’t have gotten one who can bend his knees. I think Havenstein was a fifth round grade and  the Rams took him at the end of the second.

4. Frank Clark – DE Seattle. This is the typical Seahawks early pick. They take someone they could have gotten two or three rounds later because they like the scheme fit. I think it was a massive reach.

5. Jordan Richards – SS New England. They took the kid two to three rounds too early. He’s likely going to be a special teams player in the league and you took him in the second round, just a gigantic reach.

6. Chaz Green – OT Dallas. Why? I loved your first two picks I just don’t get why you go get a swing tackle in round three. You still have many other needs, just a weird pick.

7. Jacquiski Tartt – S San Francisco. I really love the player but you have two elite safeties including your team MVP at strong safety, the same spot Tartt would play. I just don’t see why you would do that in the second round.

8. Quentin Rollins and Ty Montgomery – Green Bay. I think Ted Thompson took this draft off. I like Rollins and Montgomery but these are NOT positions of need or really of any desire at all, I just don’t see how these guys see the field. I’m super confused.

Two picks I don’t hate but I don’t love.

9. T.J. Yeldon, RB Jacksonville – I don’t hate the pick I just think it was a pretty rich selection for him. I really think he would have been a better value in the middle to end of the third round.

10. Sammie Coates, WR Pittsburgh -  I think he’s a good risk in the end of the third round but the team already has two burners outside, seems like the definition of a luxury pick.

mock 4.0 senior bowl week mock

 This is what I think will happen with a twist - I'm going to mock all 32 teams and give all at least one draft pick, but I'm ALSO going to give them a free agent I THINK they should sign. So this exercise is a mock on what I think will happen for the draft and what I think the team SHOULD do for the free agent. Feels like it's something different and hey we've got 6 weeks til Free Agency so this will give everyone something to read. This also doesn't include any free agents I think they should re-sign.  Effective Cap Space: the cap space a team will have after signing at least 51 players and its projected rookie class to its roster. 1. Chicago Bears - QB Caleb Williams, USC I think the Bears ultimately trade Justin Fields to someone, Atlanta, Las Vegas, Denver, and pull the trigger with Williams who is one of only a handful of 99 players who have ever come out. If he doesn't give you Patrick Mahomes vibes I can't help you. Bears "Effective" Cap Sp

MOCK 3.0 What I THINK will happen

 Man even looking back at my mocks from 2 months ago, things change so fast in this cycle. Players get hurt, teams go on runs, players develop or fall off. It's amazing what can happen and both how long and how short a football season is. This is not what I would do, but what I think will happen. I play in an ultra competitive team building madden league and I don't want my compatriots to know what I'm thinking or where I'm grading players anymore because now it's getting serious. So here we go. My first real shot at a mock now that the first 18 teams orders' are locked in. 1. Chicago Bears - QB Caleb Williams, USC Look, Justin Fields shows flashes of absolute brilliance. He really does, but his pocket awareness and ability to scan down field is well below average and he simply is not a very productive NFL passer at this point. Plus, Fields was not drafted by this regime - Fields will likely fetch a day 2 pick, which is valuable and you can start building around

TOTAL VALUE ADDED 2024 NFL DRAFT

 This isn't an article saying what team did the best based on their draft slot or anything like that. This is simply a points chart. I listed 200 players on my overall player rating board and put them up on a list and used the Spielberger draft chart to assign a point value to every slot. Based on my chart mixed with his value chart I came up with a points value chart for every single team in the NFL for the 2024 draft. We'll look back at this every year after 3 seasons to see how bad I was.
