Mat68 Posted March 16 Posted March 16 The signing of Samuel makes the top of the draft wide open. An argument could be had that they might be better getting top interior Dlineman or top five edge at 28. The difference between the 5th and 12 wr is not that wide. Im curious how Beane plays it and what guys he values. 1 1 Quote

There's no sense of loading up on Oline(minus maybe C), TE, RB,LB etc. just to see them poached off the P.S. Start from the 7th rd. and start pushing everything up. Quote

Lost 2 guys that dressed. I think you can get a guy with some juice at RB that would push Johnson. Im not overly impressed with the depth anywhere. Drafting a TE or linebacker and having to cut Morris or Spector helps improve the roster. Later in the draft you go wider odds of hitting. If you need 5 guys you best use 9 -11 picks and find those 5. Quote

ScorpionZero Posted March 16 Posted March 16 (edited) 15 hours ago, Richard Noggin said: To be completely honest, I almost automatically skip past these front-loaded, trade-heavy lists of assets exchanged and picks. No offense to you. The format is less accessible than comparable screenshots. It's a shame because how evidently you enjoy exploring a multitude of draft possibilities, often bucking needs-based fan consensus. But then I have to ask: which effing simulator has Latu available at 28?! That's...interesting. Safety is nicely restocked here, and the EDGE pipeline is filled. Solid #2 RB added. LG now a competition between Edwards and strong prospect in McCormick. But the two biggest needs, WR and DT, according to most fans, are not prioritized. Tez Walker looked LOST at the Senior Bowl (despite his impressive traits), and Eboigbe is more of a 3-4 DE prospect than a 4-3 DT. Not a great fit. Smith could represent value, I guess, given his surprise med e v a l at the combine. Here's a similarly UNsatisfying draft haul that could be beneficial in the longer term. Most of these guys should be NFL contributors sooner rather than later. I'm guessing most posters will be mad about WR and DT. It's MDD, mock draft database. I agree the trade back hauls are ridiculous. As for picks, usually half way through drafting it just becomes tedious, sometimes I just draft highest rated player regardless of position which was the case with Eboigbe. Otherwise it's just me getting to know the players, reading write ups or watching film, I'll watch highlights but I'm generally more interested in the film against a particular team, as your able to see the player from play to play rather than when they make a play. No need to say no offense, we're just having fun with this and I Rather enjoy criticism, as it makes me a better evaluator because it checks my judgement on decisions.

In this draft we get our top wr, a top dl, one of the best centers, a very good safety and a good LB. Full disclosure, I have no idea about Murphy Edited March 16 by Turbo44 1 Quote
stuvian Posted March 17 Posted March 17 I see the Cards, Chargers and Bears (from 9, not 1) trading down and the Titans and Giants move up and into the QB market Quote
ScorpionZero Posted March 17 Posted March 17 Ok before you skip past because of trades I made these myself, not the computer generated ones. I only made realistic ones. If you don't think so, correct me. First of all I traded back because of value, without AD being there I didn't see anyone worth 28 at this point, and for the record I see AD as a WR1 in time. I went back to 33 and 65 to pick up 101 as I think late third to fifth is the meat of the draft, when 33 came Nubin was available at 41 so I played the value card and found a trade picking up 38 and 106. Value seemed right at that point and began drafting, always looking at need/BPA. Let me know. Trade Recap Buffalo Receives: 2024: Round 2, Pick 33 2024: Round 3, Pick 65 2024: Round 4, Pick 101 Carolina Receives: 2024: Round 1, Pick 28 2024: Round 2, Pick 60 Buffalo Receives: 2024: Round 2, Pick 38 2024: Round 4, Pick 106 Tennessee Receives: 2024: Round 2, Pick 33 My Selections 38 Tyler Nubin who can argue with this S | Minnesota TRADE 65 Adisa Isaac BPA/need designated pass rusher EDGE | Penn State TRADE 101 Devontez Walker deep threat/different type of receiver. WR | North Carolina TRADE 106 Cole Bishop outstanding value, pairs up nicely with Nubin. S | Utah TRADE 128 Ben Sinnott all around tight end, save cap space next season letting Knox go. Improved running game in 12/13 personnel. Also reminds me of Wychek/Clark TE | Kansas State 134 Javon Baker different type of receiver, talented had upside. WR | UCF 144 DeWayne Carter fits in rotation DL | Duke 160 Javon Solomon Small School, talented, possible steal. EDGE | Troy 163 Nehemiah Pritchett size, skill in zone defense CB | Auburn 196 Isaac Guerendo 6' 220lbs with 4.33 long speed, can't do worse. RB | Louisville 200 Dwight McGlothern another corner made for zone. CB | Arkansas 204 Hunter Nourzad well coached, G/C prospect. IOL | Penn State 248 Fabien Lovett size/experience based traits. DL | Florida State Tell me what you think. Quote

Buffalo needs quality not quantity, so I see them trading up at least once, maybe twice in rd’s 1-4 and end up drafting 7-8 players. No need to use 11 of picks cuz only roster space probably for 5-6 draftees. I’d be interested in your draft trading up two to three times, as that’s what beane has historically done Quote

Yeah, pretty much all of the Simulators rankings are f-cked. Honestly, they're kind of a waste of time. I've yet to find one where I think it's pretty spot on. And there's always a handful of players on the board at spots where I'm like "no way". Like Jefferson. I'd already taken Jackson and Hall, but then I'm looking over my options at 248 and thought "wait, what?". 1 Quote
