One Week Out - Give Your Best Guess

[onejayhawk]

We are one week out. Make predictions about how the draft actually unfolds. Here are some basic guidelines.

• At least two rounds. Four rounds is sufficient.
• Machine drafts are allowed but not necessary.
• Trades are encouraged. History shows that this GM will make some and we have a lot of draft capital.
• Give pick details of trades.
• Be as realistic as possible. It will almost certainly be more realistic than reality, but that's how the draft always goes.

Here is a trade value chart for reference.

As an example, here is a published draft by Chad Reuter. Note how unbalanced his trades are.
https://www.nfl.com/news/four-round-2022-nfl-mock-draft-2-0-seahawks-saints-trade-into-top-five-for-qb

Trade #29 + #30 for #14 + #128 (That's a big premium. More realistic would have been #29 + #30 + #121 for #14 + #76.)

14: WR Jameson Williams - Alabama
50: CB Roger McCreary - Auburn
62: Edge Cameron Thomas - San Diego St
94: OT Kellen Diesch - Arizona St
103: Edge Joshua Pachal - Kentucky
121: LB Brandon Smith - Penn St
128: CB Akayleb Evans - Missouri
135: RB TylerGoodson - Iowa

I think we stay put (no trade up). I bet they have eyes on a WR they like who isn't in the top 4. Maybe Pickens or Dotson.

Then with the other 1st rounder - definitely defensive line. Either DE or DT...wherever the best value is.

2nd round will be Secondary help - either a Safety or CB. I still kind of think we end up with Bradberry and a 2nd or 3rd round rookie CB.

And for our other 2nd rounder - I bet we go back to defensive line. DT especially if we took DE in the 1st

3rd rounders will probably bring us an OL prospect (RT) and then BPA...maybe a LB or safety (if we went CB in round 2).

[onejayhawk]

Since the best player in teh draft is slipping, here is one scenario. If you don't like Hamilton, feel free to substitute Sauce Gardner. Either might slide.

Trade: #29 + #30 +#94 for #13 + #68

25:  S Kyle Hamilton - Notre Dame
50:  DL Trravis Jones - UConn
62: Edge Cameron Thomas - San Diego State
68: Edge DeMarvin Leal - Texas A&M
94: LB Troy Andersen - Montana State
121: WR Velus Jones Jr. - Tennessee
135: S Sterling Weatherford - Miami (OH)

Pick #29 - Daxton Hill, S, Michigan. Chiefs obviously need help at CB. Hill will play there and elsewhere as needed. He's quite versatile.

Pick #30 - WR, George Pickens, Georgia; or trade down

I have no idea but these are some of my faves where I think we could get em + fit.

29. Trent McDuffie CB/S (almost went with Booth Jr but TM's versatility is what Spagz will be after imo)

30. Boye Mafe Edge

50. Perrion Winfrey IDL

62. Alec Pierce WR

94. Troy Andersen LB

103. Darrian Beavers LB

121. Khalil Shakir WR

135. Pierre Strong Jr RB

233. My Grandma

243. My Great-Grandma

251. My Great-Great Grandma

259. My Great-Great-Great Grandma

Won't do another mock - just a prediction:

With the first four picks I expect:

1 DE
1 WR
2 DBs

Now don't ask me if all those picks will be in round one and two ...

I think you're either right on or a hair off. I expect either 2 DL or 2 DB barring a top guy falling.

[onejayhawk]

Here is one scenario if Jermaine Johnson slides.

Trade: #29 + #50 + #94 + #121 for #24 + #56 + 2023 2nd round pick
Trade: #30 + #233 for #35 + #111

24: EDGE Jermaine Johnson - Florida State

56:  DL Logan Hall - Houston
62: LB Troy Andersen - Montana State

111: S Kerby Joseph - Illinois
135: WR Wan'Dale Robinson - Kentucky
