Fergy’s Draft Analysis (2025)

 

* If Beane trades down, he will. But (keep in mind) he could trade up or possibly stay put. So there’s that. 
 

* No matter if he stays put or moves, our first pick will be defense (possibly offense depending what’s on the board). Look for a player who attended a D1 school with a motor. Above average cone drill and broad jump (or vertical). That’s where we make draft impact. 
 

* 2nd pick will definitely be offense because we need some help moving the ball faster. But if it’s a defensive player, I’m predicting that too. Why? Because you can always use a  high motor kid that loves the game. That’s where we find those players. Also, look for a players with hips, tibias and ulnas. Long limbs and a fella with stats. 
 

3rd pick. May be a trade down, or maybe collect lower picks and trade up for a higher pick. Beane will look for a good player without defective limbs. Possibly someone with 9 fingers but most likely 10 and at least 9 toes. Probably someone from the eastern shore to Texas. Can’t say for sure but I like the players that have played in warm weather but exposed to some cool weather and precipitation (PAC 10 and Big 10 also). 
 

Thoughts?

 

Huh?   Did parentheses win some kind of legal battle against commas and semicolons?

[MJS]

We laugh, but this analysis is going to be more accurate and predictive than all mock drafts, which are worth just about nothing.

How big is the board this year @BringBackFergy?

Those add to the humor and to his point.

 

One of the best satires I have read on this board in some time.

 

Funny how some then use this thread to do exactly what he pokes fun at so well, seemingly (shockingly?) oblivious to his main point. I laughed at those too, but don't think they were supposed to be funny.

I’m anxiously waiting for Fergy’s redo of the 1966 draft.

There is no way beane trades up or trades down. There is certainly no chance he sticks and picks

Thank you.  Guess we have a different sense of humor.

Brilliant stuff as always, BBF.

 

 I’d be curious to know your thoughts on drafting BPA vs Need.

IMO, there are 257 draftable players.

It looks like you have all your bases covered!

 

I prefer instead to employ an aggressive infield shift, leaving 1st or 3rd uncovered when the analytics allow.

One this is for certain, we will or we won’t, and that goes for either way.

I thought by the title you meant Joe Ferguson was doing a mock!

 

i was thinking Joe Ferguson or perhaps the singer Fergie.  One or the other but not this 🤷🏼‍♂️

Trust me Fergy's board is bigger than that. He always has the biggest boards. Huge.
