    This was a draft I put together after multiple trade down and ups... I feel like we fill most of our holes while still finding solid players that will develop into contributors within a season or two.

    Almost 20 yds per catch. Doing that in the SEC is impressive. Probably can help returning kicks as well.

    You got Phillips, but Bech just moved up too much. The sleeper awoke.

    Same, the NFL Draft Simulator tends to suppress bigger named talent at times. It also touts up lesser talent like Jaxson Dart who went mid 20s in the first.

    Some of the simulators have been updated, and now, if you want Jackson or Zabel, you have to pick them at 25 or at least stay in round 1 with a trade back.

    25. Nick Emmanwori S
    58. Tate Ratledge OG
    89. Jack Bech WR
    109. Omarr Norman-Lott DT
    167. Jaydon Blue RB

    Honestly think he might be there in the 6th, either way that’s a high upside type pick.

    You're probably right, I wouldn't risk it. Dude has real talent.

    BTW, The Texans dont have a 6th.

    I'm basing the following mock on us signing another quality WR (Diggs?) to join Kirk and Nico.

    Man, who would've thought McMillan and Burden would've been that low.

    Best Game yet - Multiple trades to accumulate draft capital for two early 2nds. This after Kirk trade so I focused on an X receiver at 89.

    36.Grey Zabel OG North Dakota State

    37.Donovan Jackson OG Ohio State

    89.Tory Horton WR Colorado State

    127.Jordan Phillips DT Maryland

    143.Trey Wedig OT Indiana

    167.J.J. Pegues DT Ole Miss
