Thanks for another year of MK Jr Invitational drafting, RS.

Fwiw, I think someone was particularly hard on Oh Canada's Jags with a core of 3.
Don't see how that's possible with the draft he had..
Maybe a grudge or something. lol

I just compile them. I certainly don't agree with all of the results.

Don't think I've ever gotten a good grade from this thing. My 3 guys are all going to end up as top 50 picks...actually the 4 teams between 22-24 all got lower grades than they should have

unionjack8 gracefully accepts the applause of al davis, jerry Jones and mike brown..... oh bugger that doesnt bode well

tbh this was a lot of fun and It will be interesting to review this post draft.

got to admit i would never want to be burdened with the boys, its a thankless task because we all have our own favourites who we want them to draft

I'd love to hear the justification for the 3 for the Seahawks.

Yeah,I liked their draft too.
At this early stage,it's all just entertainment. Obviously everyone has their biases. Who is truly right and wrong won't be revealed for a year or two and who is relatively (compared to actual draft) won't come out until may.

I gave you a good grade, though I do think Donavan Smith was NOT worth two draft picks that early.
If he somehow goes I the top 50...and ends up worth it...you get the last laugh.

An F for the Cardinals...really? Would somebody please help me understand why? I traded up for the last elite pass rusher in the draft, got a corner that was projected to be the 1st corner off the board before his ACL tear in the 2nd round, and got a small school sleeper OG who just killed it in the combine BTW. Not the greatest draft ever but I think it was pretty decent considering.

I thought your class was solid. Maybe some of these guys had no clue who Ali Marpet was.

unionjack8 gracefully accepts the applause of al davis, jerry Jones and mike brown..... oh bugger that doesnt bode well

tbh this was a lot of fun and It will be interesting to review this post draft.

got to admit i would never want to be burdened with the boys, its a thankless task because we all have our own favourites who we want them to draft

Congrats-well deserved Jack!

Floaty was sunk when he made that trade with the Eagles. Personally a fan of Dawson and Williams myself, my grade was middle of the pack for him. I just wasn't a huge fan of the 3-4 rounds and the trade, but appreciate the effort. Guy seemed to be working this phones ;-)

Yeah his eagerness to make as many picks as possible caused him to make a bad trade. You don't trade a 2nd round pick for two 4ths. I knew he was toast when he made that trade.

Same thing happened to the Browns. It was the lost 1st rounder next year that caused everyone to grade him so harshly. Too harshly, IMO.

Poor Floaty went full Jerry Jones there. The Dawson pick was not popular, as I am sure he could sense. While he might deny it, I doubt the draft unfolded exactly as he would have liked it to.

I'm a little disappointed the grading hasn't caused a good dust up. But he hasn't been on yet since the grades have been on. So there's still hope.

All in all, it is kind of silly to get all defensive about the grading. It is one thing to assume everyone puts a lot of the time into the draft.

Half the time, you could take a simple printoff from a site and just go BPA. I have seen novices win fantasy leagues doing this.

It is just fun. No big deal.

I can't wait for 2 years...people are gonna be praising my genius!!!!!!:clap:

Trading a late 2nd to get 2 guys that I had 3rd round grades on.......Was a brilliant move. Who wouldn't trade a 2nd for 2 3rd round picks???????

People need to realize the Cowboys have issues beyond just filling the D-line. After free agency...this team is gonna be swiss cheese full of holes......and w/ this draft....I filled the majority of them;)

If this turns out bad...so be it. I'll take the heat. but right now.....I think I walked away w/ @ least 3 starters......if not 5...depending on FA.

How can you not like that????

1(27) Paul Dawson OLB TCU......Starter
2(60) Daryl Williams RT Oklahoma......Starter
3(91) Gerod Holliman FS Louisville......Starter
4(110) Justin Hardy WR East Carolina
4(116) Jacoby Glenn CB UCF (Possible......Starter)
4(124) Javorius Allen RB USC......Starter

Grading these mocks based on the BPA........vs filling team needs......something is missing from the equation

If I were to just go BPA according to CBS sports rankings.... my mock would have looked completely different......

1(27) Dorial Green-Beckham WR Oklahoma
2(60) Cedric Ogbuehi T Texas A&M
3(91) Brett Hundley QB UCLA
4(124) Javorius Allen RB USC

No trade of the 2nd round pick...........

so your saying this redo mock is better???????? I have a hard time believing thato_O

And this team is still full of holes......

I just know one thing.....there wasn't a single pick I made where @ least one person PM'ed me or said something in the chatter thread that said "I got their guy...and that it was a great pick".

I think you guys need to seriously look @ your grading system......Because something doesn't seem right
