The Annual Mock Draft Thread- The always wild, completely unrealistic and never gonna happen, but occasionally entertaining thread for all the zany mock draft simulators

[Koolblue13]

I know some of us like to run lots of Mock Drafts and they're a blast and what better way to set unrealistic expectations about our beloved team.

PFF is silly with that C grade for Mayer.   Tippman and Haener are two of my favorite players in the draft

Is that the player grade or the grade based on when he was selected?

Got me, but that's about where he's going.

Where selected compared to available I presume.  PFF likes Mayer in general.  He's 17th on their board, right around where @Koolblue13 took him ironically.  So i gather there were people who dropped who were at that same spot higher on their board

Witherpoon and Sanders in the first two rounds would be fun.

Thanks for starting the thread - I prefer this than cluttering up the draft thread.  And I always enjoy the thread and really like the ones the members do without the mock engines.

 

Full disclosure - I really enjoy the mock engines myself.  I will agonize every pick and potential trade and will dive into players much more than I ever did prior to them.

 

To me, the "draft season" is way more fun than the draft itself.  Before the draft, 2 of the top 47 draftees are reachable.  During/after the draft, only 2 in the top 100 were available (without trade).

 

Bring it on.

I love the Mayer/Ringo combo back to back. 

 

I get the love for Mayer, but my concern is we only pick once again before 97ish, and we are either sacrificing getting great cb value in the 2nd or waiting too long to address oline.

I'd go crazy for a draft like this:

If we had this draft I would be ecstatic. There is zero shot it happens.

Is PFF saying our second compensatory pick will be at the end of the seventh?  I had thought it was the end of the sixth?

I've been routinely grabbing FB Luepke in my mocks as well. Not sure if this offense NEEDS a FB, but it would be so cool to have one again!

I'd love to have a FB.

Gotta cut something to keep one. Might mean 2 TEs 1 FB on active roster.

Guess it would depend on the FB. Is more TE, HB, RB.

Did this on “Fanspeak on the Clock”

Nope this won’t happen, ever…

But it’s fun to pretend ;-)
