 Ugh. Not sure I'm happy about this. I was just messing around with the mock draft simulator on Profootballnetwork and did a draft. I'm not too happy because I traded back from 5th to 10th and missed out on Bowers, MHJ, and Alt (wasn't paying attention to who was still available).

But despite my brain fart I still managed to recover from that mistake and do this (I also traded back another time too - each time I traded back I picked up a pick in 2025 draft):

#10 - JC Latham, Alabama OT

#36 - Cooper Beebe, Kansas State - OG

#38 - JT. Tuimalauo - Ohio State - EDGE

#41 - Donovan Jackson - Ohio State - OG

#73 - Tommy Eichenberg - Ohio State - LB

#96 - Ruke Orhorhoro - Clemson - DT

#104 - Blake Corum - Michigan - RB

#132 - Antwane Wells Jr - S. Carolina - WR

#166 - Jason Marshall - Florida - CB

#170 - Jake Briningstool - Clemson - TE

2025 TEN 2nd rounder

2025 TB 4th rounder

 

So again, don't kill me too much. I really haven't paid too much attention to some of the teams and haven't really delved into a lot of these players. And I tried with the DT to take a guy who could play in a 3-4 (h/t to @e16bball)

One other note - I traded back 3 spots to #104 and was gonna take the QB Daniels from LSU (yes @taylor made) but the Giants took him at #102.

This draft was assuming we didn't address anything in FA along the OL. I'll try another one with the assumption that we signed a good OT and OG in FA so it frees us up for BPA at any position.

 

Oh and BTW - if anyone can tell me how I can post the graphic without having to type the danged pics out I'd appreciate it. My brain is not doing the brain things today.

It’s a good draft. That’s why I don’t like trading back though. If we have a top 5 pick we need to keep it IMO & take the BPA.

I know nobody else looks at it like this but my number 1 QB is Jayden Daniels. I know Caleb has immense talent and Maye is amazing has size arm and legs and while his build is a concern Jayden is that guy in this class. Kelly has masked Aton of QB’s but Jayden has the game and eyes and he’s so far advanced in his technique I think come draft time some team is going to shock people because all the great college QB’s this guy is the one that every time I watched he wowed me with things that translate to Sunday football. Probably not a popular take but as much time as I’ve put in on this class if I had to pull the trigger and my job depended on it and I didn’t have Howell that be my pick

Correct me if I am mistaken, but isn’t the word about Trotter Jr that he is limited physically?  If we’re staying with the 4-3, I’m not sure we need to draft that player.  

No nap, I am told he is the perfect MIKE because he plays it at Clemson.

I feel like he was worth taking a chance on in the 3rd. Sort of a value pick at that point.

PFF is the only other one I use as the rest I've tried just make no sense. With PFF, just don't make your last pick when it comes up and just refresh and you can keep doing it over and over again lol

I don't ever really do trades, but I did it here for once just to see. Cincy offered me #15, #46, #77, and their 2025 2nd to go get Marvin Harrison and I let them. 

 

WAS

15. Jared Verse, EDGE Florida State

36. Troy Fautanu, OG Washington

38. Barrett Carter, LB Clemson

46. Jordan Morgan, OT Arizona

70. Will Shipley, RB Clemson

77. Malachi Corley, WR Western Kentucky

96. Cade Stover, TE Ohio State

101. Darius Robinson, EDGE Missouri

132. Khyree Jackson, CB Oregon

166. DeWayne Carter, DT Duke

197. Sam Hartman, QB Notre Dame

2025 CIN 2nd

 

That'd be kinda cool.

Its still kind of a silly graphic considering how many good OT there are in this draft. But yes, ideally Fashanu or Alt are our pick. 

It is pretty deep with OTs, but I don't think any of them is worth a top 5 pick.  If that is the direction we go, we could trade down and get one for each side.  I wouldn't mind picking up Suamataia to play LT and Fuaga to play RT.
