    Is this going to be like the all the mock drafts in FB, that have Chiefs trade Mahomes to the Texans for all the draft picks for the next 3 drafts? LOL

    This is a game focusing on maximizing 2024 1st round quality picks through trading down.

    Began with HOU and CLE;
    Added ARI, IND, CHI, DEN & NO;
    7 likely high 1st round picks in 2024

    So the following 4 round Draft should be tempered with this in mind.

    4 Stroud QB
    54 Avila G/C
    65 Wypler C
    67 Tipman C/G/T
    68 Hodges-Tomlinson CB
    103 Dell WR
    104 Williams LB
    105 McGuire ED
    108 Schoonmaker TE

    This is really stupid. We might get Carter at 12. We certainly don’t need to move up to draft him. Chicago is trading that pick unless they trade fields to pick a QB. If they stay put without trading Fields they are taking Anderson. I wanted Carter at 1.2, but until he’s cleared no way he goes that high.

    This was from a rare time I couldn't trade back out of 1-1. It wasn't intentional. The game has not yet factored in his recent trouble, so he isn't dropping yet.

    I’m sorry is this some kind of computer generated game?

    Yes.

    https://www.pff.com/draft/nfl-mock-draft-simulator?ref=8f9a61ab-3ac6-42a1-8bee-da0f6e047623

    It comes out early and is relatively easy to use if trading before the draft. It has the ability to trade afterward, but the pop up screen almost covers the info entirely and it's a pain. But there are multiple data bases and some have bad links or have been over written causing unlikely trade possibilities. At least every year I've played it.

    To be frank, it's the only reason I care anything about the NFL. I stopped watching even before I cut the chord.

    This simulation is focused on defense and athleticism:

    Trades
    Seattle 5, 20, 37 for 2
    Detroit 6, 18, 81 for 12, 33 and 37

    5 Carter DL DNP
    6 Richardson QB 4.43
    18 Kancey DI 4.67
    20 N Smith ED 4.39
    65 Tippman DNP C/G (lower ranked, but mostly unavailable at 73)
    73 Wypler C 5.14
    81 Williams CB ?
    104 Dell WR 4.49

    This best player available draft seems lopsided. Can the Swarm Defense utilize the following?

    1-2 Anderson ED
    1-12 Skoronski OT
    2-33 McDonald ED
    3-65 Adebawore ED
    3-73 Wypler C
    4-104 Dell WR

    I do not expect this to be realistic, but none of these mocks are usually realistic beyond the first round.
