2024.10.01 Draft with Trade backs from 14th place

[calicowboy54]

This season is only 1/4 done. but we have Depth problems on DL and WR. Our 3rd QB is not going to stay after this year and who knows about Crush, he may get more money else where. So with all of that in mind i took a few trade downs LV wanted someone bad so they gave me a offer i could not refuse. This is how that played out.
