Really? I pulled up an article saying he would ne a late round steal.. and I'm on my phone so excel has zero way for me to search for a player. I expected him to be there in the 7th for a late round steal.

Must be an old one lol. He's been a day 2 pick for awhile now and was picked round 3 in this game.

nah lol - almost 100% that he's going day 2 - was drafted in the 3rd round in this exercise... might go in the 2nd in real life
 
Akayleb Evans was one of my "fuck it might have to take him" guys. Been sitting on him for awhile now but I had already drafted like 38 CBs it feels like.

Don't go too far though @Sandtown . I've got 2 picks and then you're back on the clock

I had to look like 10 times to make sure if he wasn't already taken lol.
 
Good picks in Evans, Anenih and Johnson. All three were on my board of remaining prospects. Evans was someone I considered both over Jones and Flowers.

Thanks. Anenih in particular was fun from the little I got to see. Explosive and bendy but doesn't know what to do with it yet. So what I assume would be a fun development project in the 7th.

Exactly what I thought of him. I only discovered him within the past two days and thought what he offers is well worth the pickup this late. Worst case, he flames out early and we get to pretend that he didn't exist.
 
Now that we're almost at the end of the draft, who of any of your own picks would you expect to go earlier than they were selected? Or perhaps later?

I've generally had pretty good luck with some of my round 4 and 5 guys making it to day 2. I know Jelani Woods, Joshua Williams, Damarri Mathis, Isaiah Spiller, Cam Jurgens, Jalyn Armour-Davis, Isaiah Weston, and Joshua Ezeudu have all appeared there in some mocks so fingers crossed some of them actually do go earlier.

Conversely, I think I reached on Martin Emerson at the top of the 3rd in particular. I'm personally pretty high on him so I don't care, but wouldn't be shocked if he ends up as a day 3 guy. Myjai Sanders could be in a similar boat, but he was a back end of the 3rd so not too much of a difference there if he slips into round 4.

That you for sure have. Of yours, Spiller, Weston and Ezeudu especially given where I've seen them in mocks. I'm hoping for the same in mine. Particularly Bo Melton, Erik Ezukanma, Keaontay Ingram, Ja'Tyre Carter, Samori Toure and Dallis Flowers. I could see them going slightly higher than the 6th-7th.

I didn't see much of Emerson, but I thought the upside was tantalizing. He might be the last of that core group before the drop-off. Every time I run a Ravens mock, I consider him in the 3rd. On my end, I almost surely took multiple players earlier than expected. Cameron Thomas, Josh Paschal. I absolutely stand by them as prospects and didn't want to miss out on them. But it doesn't mean they won't go later.

As I alluded to before, I had more fun this draft because after the 3rd round basically, I just went for what I deemed highest value/who I believed in most with little regard for position. Only time I really balked at that was if I had already drafted multiples at a position (e.g. CB), I was looking elsewhere. I've got so much depth for the Browns and Cardinals in particular that the 5th through 7th rounds have basically just been me having fun because I didn't need anything lol

i probably went slightly too early on david ojabo with his injury and im not really sure where alex wright will go in real life... could have got his value right but also maybe he slips into day 3

damone clark another injury wildcard dude - think his tape would suggest i got a bargain a round after he should have gone, but the combine found some spinal injury that means he had to have surgery and will miss his rookie year (at least it wont apparently affect his long-term career)

idk about that necessarily - i also have a 2nd round grade on paschal - that said i am a bit lower on cameron thomas right now (but he was also one of the first prospects i graded so has been marked for a "grade check" for a while now)
 
It's always hard to say with draft position too solely because there are bound to be some health questions or off field concerns that teams know of now that won't come out until they actually start falling. I know we're not perfect but it always has made me wonder what would happen if you gave one of us a real opportunity to do this with all of the information and help real GMs have. Not that we'll ever actually know lol
