If you ever wanted to simulate being the GM of the Houston Texans or any other team for the NFL Draft, this website is for you: http://www.first-pick.com/Default.aspx You can preform trades for either trading up or down in the draft, or for even future draft picks, get an NFL.Com draft profile on a prospect before you select them by clicking on their name, and Get graded on your draft class and ranked based on what needs you filled, etc. It's a pretty nifty experience. This is how my draft went: Your score is: 5662 (GRADE: B+) Your Picks: Round 1 Pick 16: Marcus Mariota, QB, Oregon (A) Round 2 Pick 20 (PHI): Jaelen Strong, WR, Arizona State (A) Round 3 Pick 18: Ronald Darby, CB, Florida State (B+) Round 4 Pick 22 (PITT): Davis Tull, OLB, Chattanooga (A) Round 5 Pick 16: Chris Conley, WR, Georgia (C+) Round 5 Pick 24 (PITT): Adrian Amos, FS, Penn State (B-) Round 6 Pick 19: Adam Shead, OG, Oklahoma (D) Round 7 Pick 18: Amarlo Herrera, ILB, Georgia (D) Round 7 Pick 20 (PHI): Erick Dargan, SS, Oregon (B) Your Future Picks: 2016 Round 1 Pick 2017 Round 1 Pick Apparently Marcus fell to #16, So it was almost a no-brainer for me to grab him. Idk how Darby fell out to the third though, but I guess the other teams just liked the other corners better. Anyways, If you do end up using the simulator, post how well your draft/scores went here. (Here is another simulator with a variety of draft boards that are probably more accurate, but less features like no trades,etc.-http://fanspeak.com/ontheclock/)
Your score is: 6142 (GRADE: B+) Round 2 Pick 8 (NYG): Benardrick McKinney, ILB, Mississippi State (A-) Round 2 Pick 11 (CLE): Eli Harold, OLB, Virginia (A-) Round 2 Pick 19: Maxx Williams, TE, Minnesota (A) Round 2 Pick 27 (DEN): P.J. Williams, CB, Florida State (A) Round 3 Pick 10 (NYG): Phillip Dorsett, WR, Miami (Fla.) (A) Round 3 Pick 18: Gerod Holliman, FS, Louisville (B) Round 3 Pick 28 (DEN): Ronald Darby, CB, Florida State (C+) Round 4 Pick 1 (TENN): T.J. Yeldon, RB, Alabama (A) Round 5 Pick 38 (COMP): Ty Montgomery, WR, Stanford (B+) Round 6 Pick 36 (COMP): Shane McDermott, C, Miami (Fla.) (C-) Round 6 Pick 41 (COMP): Brandon Ivory, DT, Alabama (F) Your Future Picks: 2016 Round 1 Pick 2017 Round 1 Pick Didn't mean to pick Darby with my last 3rd round pick, probably lowered my score. Also didn't do any research for my last 2 picks, just went with position of need. Otherwise, I would love if this exact situation somehow presented itself.
Also note that every offensive lineman that I wanted, be it in the 1st or mid-rounds, got taken right before my pick. That's my excuse for a weak lineman draft and I'm sticking to it!
Amount of trades offered and accepted in this thing is crazy .

Did another one; would have got a higher grade if I didn't put Perryman as a ILB: Your score is: 6566 (GRADE: A-) Your Picks: Round 1 Pick 22 (PITT): Jaelen Strong, WR, Arizona State (A-) Round 2 Pick 19: Maxx Williams, TE, Minnesota (A) Round 2 Pick 21 (CINN): Benardrick McKinney, ILB, Mississippi State (A) Round 2 Pick 24 (PITT): Jalen Collins, CB, LSU (A) Round 3 Pick 18: Denzel Perryman, ILB/OLB, Miami (Fla.)

Details: NYJ receives the following picks: Round 1 Pick 16 (16) (HOU), Round 3 Pick 18 (82) (HOU), 2016 Round 1 Pick (HOU), 2017 Round 1 Pick (HOU) HOU receives the following picks: Round 1 Pick 6 (6) (NYJ) Your Future Picks: I gave the draft another go, and when Jameis Winston was still on the board after TB and TN, there was no way that I was going to make the Texans regret trading up twice. I sold the house for Jameis, giving up two future first rounders, and a first and third this year. If he's tossed into the fire way too early, this move will definitely backfire, but I found no harm in sitting him for a year behind Mallet or Hoyer until he's ready.
Had another go and Mariota fell to 16 .... don't think this thing is so accurate but it's a great tool for learning how some of these late round players are valued Your score is: 6818 (GRADE: A-) Your Picks: Round 1 Pick 16: Marcus Mariota, QB, Oregon (A) Round 2 Pick 19: Breshad Perriman, WR, UCF (A) Round 3 Pick 18: Jay Ajayi, RB, Boise State (A) Round 4 Pick 17: Kevin White, CB, TCU (B) Round 5 Pick 16: Andy Gallik, C, Boston College (A) Round 5 Pick 38 (COMP): Chris Conley, WR, Georgia (A) Round 6 Pick 19: Joey Mbu, DT, Houston (B) Round 6 Pick 36 (COMP): Alani Fua, OLB, Brigham Young (B) Round 6 Pick 41 (COMP): Deion Barnes, DE, Penn State (B) Round 7 Pick 18: Craig Mager, CB, Texas State (B-) Your Future Picks: 2016 Round 1 Pick 2017 Round 1 Pick
