    I think they'd have to move back into the 1st round for Washington. Shultz probably goes in the gap between 33 and 65. Better alternatives at 33, but won't make it to 66. But this is a Caserio specialty. Moving up or back on draft day.

    Trade
    Detroit Receives 2
    Houston receives
    6
    18
    48
    152

    6 QB C. J. Stroud
    12 CB Devon Witherspoon
    18 ED Freak Nolan Smith
    33 DI Freak Mazi Smith
    48 C John Michael Schmitdz
    65 C/G/T Joe Tippmann
    73 CB Garrett Williams
    104 WR Nathaniel Bell
    152 LB Dorian Williams
    161 DI Moro Ojomo

    I traded back, but had to choose between Smith and Washington at 33, Smith and Bjon at 18 and Witherspoon and Soronski at 12. I went with the freaks.

    Sorry. supposed to go in Draft (simulator) Only thread.

    If Skoronski fell for some reason to 12, would you take him over a receiver? He project to move inside, the opposite of Tippmann who projects to move outside.

    Purely speculative
    LT Tunsil
    LG Tippmann or Green
    C Skoronski or Schmidz
    RG Mason
    RT Howard

    I know we have too many OL at this time, but I'm hoping for better than passable.

    Detroit would do that trade right now if you dont include the 18th pick.

    Having a beast TE on both sides of the Center will cause headaches for defenses.
    DW and DS can both block and catch so that would really expand the Offensive playbook - 2 TE sets would be fun to watch with those two.

    Yep and it would develop an identity of toughness. The old Gibbs ol didn't care if you knew they were to run or not, they imposed their will on defenses and it opens up the passing game.

    Adding Schmitz and DW along with Schultz would allow this to happen again down on Kirby.

    The games do not always simulate reality. But reality rarely simulates expectations of experts.

    So ti's all fantasy anyway until it's in the past.

    Very solid pickup, Nick has done a hell of a job.
