    With the 53rd pick in the 2024 NFL draft, the Philadelphia Eagles select Edgerrin Cooper, LB, Texas A&M.

    After addressing our biggest need in round one with CB Terrion Arnold, we were thrilled to be able to address our next biggest need with our 2nd round pick by taking the top rated linebacker on our board. Cooper is an intense, aggressive player, a hard hitter, and has top line speed for the position. He is EXACTLY what Vic Fangio looks for in a linebacker, and he'll be able to spend a year spelling and learning from starters Devin White and Nakobe Dean. The former is only on a one-year deal, and if Cooper progresses as quickly as we think he will, he has a good chance to earn a starting spot by year two, if not sooner.

    @Virgil and the morally bankrupt Cleveland Browns are on the clock.

    You mother *****...I had that picked teed up and ready to go.  

     

    I hope it burns when you pee


    Yep was hoping he got to 60 but also thought there was no way he got passed the Eagles. And here we are.

    The Pittsburgh Steelers select Tyler Guyton, OT, Oklahoma.  
     

    Yes, the Steelers went offensive lineman with both picks, but they needed it.  Looked at other positions of need, but nothing was there of value.  

     

    Guyton is another high-upside prospect that possesses raw technical traits. Hand placement and punch timing needs to improve, but Guyton is a 6-foot-7, 322-pound blocker with rare size, measurements, and athleticism. Guyton’s athletic profile was evident at the NFL Combine, where he leaped a 34.5-inch vertical. If Guyton lands with the right offensive line coach that’s capable of coaching him through his inconsistencies, the sky’s the limit.


    The Rams @EmotionallyUnstable are on the clock 

    Looks like Guyton went at 31

    Voted Franklin and it’s not even close. But I will add what some others have said, we should attempt to trade up to about 50 if Sweat is still there. Since this poll is ending and the draft will continue, maybe while people are still making their picks, put a new poll out there asking this very thing. I don’t know what the trade chart value is to move from 58 to 50. But whatever that value is, should be polled if we should do it. 


    It’s roughly 80 points on the chart. A 4 and a 5.

    Franklin will likely win the popular vote here, and perhaps that's the right move. He's a solid player IMO. It's a pick that makes the most sense based on our needs and is a good fit. 

     

    My vote however went to T'Vondre Sweat. I can't fight my built in desire to build in the trenches at all times, and this is one big meaty man to put in the middle. 

     

    If we could somehow come out of this round with both Franklin and Sweat I'd be really happy about that 


    I suppose we could try to trade up from 58 into the 45 range. There is a cluster of defensive linemen still available at the moment.

    Beane has to be careful. I remember in 2018 we had posters on TBD that pounded the table for Roquon Smith at 12 and Mason Rudolph in the second because of “value.” Screw value. Get your guy.


    I think that’s the point though. The board here is very split. I’m sure the Bills have a specific target in mind in the real world. But for the purpose of this excercise and the way this thing is playing out the options seem to be:

     

    1. Huge trade up for one of the big 3

    2. Smaller trade up for Thomas

    3. Sit tight or tiny trade up for AD Mitchell

    4. if Thomas is gone and they don’t like Mitchell it makes sense to trade down. 
     

    Mitchell would have won the vote again, but for this mock he was not an option. Thomas was gone, we could not take Mitchell and so it made sense to trade down imo.

    With the 35th pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, the Arizona "Draft Crushing" Cardinals select:  Darius Robinson, DT, Maryland

     

    CLICK HERE FOR HIGHLIGHTS

     

    We are excited to bring in someone with the kind of versatility as Darius who can play inside and out on the Edge for us.  He brings a power at the point of attack and an ability to engage and shed blockers which we believe will bring immediate value to his ability to come in and compete early for us.  With his stout ability against the run and his continued growth in diversifying his pass rush moves, we believe he can be an anchor upfront for us for along time and thrilled to steal him here at the top of 2nd round.  

     

    Having already added Odunze, Wiggins, and now Robinson  we feel we have really added to the future of both sides of the ball.  And because of our small trade downs, we still have 5 picks in the third round and 2 more in the 4th to use to really set an immediate foundation for the future of Cardinals football. 

     

    Draft Recap: TRADES

    #4 - Trade 4, 138, 162 for 6, 70, 107 

    #27 - Trade 27 for 32 and 95

    Cardinals still have a 2nd at pick 35 and now have 5 picks in the 3rd plus 2 more in the 4th to go with a couple late picks.

     

    #6 - ROME ODUNZE, WR, WASHINGTON

    #32 - NATE WIGGINS, CB, CLEMSON

    #35 - DARIUS ROBINSON, DT, MARYLAND

     

    If we were done here, this would be an A+++...but still most a 2nd round to go and we are sitting on 7 picks through rounds 3 and 4.  So maybe we see each other again soon ;) 

     

    @H2oand the Washington NoSnyders are on the clock!


    Robinson was just announced as a draft attendee. Implies he may be a 1st round pick. You definitely crushed this draft.

    No i was thinking about cb there but ultimately decided ot was more important.  After grabbing flowers last year I will be very surprised if the Ravens go wr again in round 1 especially since flowers was a hit.  

     

    Wr is certainly in play in round 2 and beyond I just think ol made more sense.

     

    Yeah I feel like they Will definitely go OL

  8. Green Bay trades picks 41 (490), 58 (320), 88 (150) and 169 (24) to the Buffalo Bills for pick 28 (660) and 60 (320). 

     

    With the 28th pick in the 2024 TSW mock draft 2.0 the Green Bay Packers select Troy Fautanu, OL, Washington

     

    This was the other guy I was considering at 25 if DeJean went before I made the pick. I saw this as a fair opportunity to move up and I still have a late second-rounder. The Packers like a particular type of offensive lineman who is athletic and versatile. I feel like Fautanu is a great fit for their scheme with his great feet, active hands, and length. Fautanu is also super versatile. He has a little Dion Dawkins-type vibe because he is on the shorter side, but he makes up for it with long arms and just tremendous feet. Even if he does wind up being "just a guard" he is going to be a dude and like the DeJean pick, he is virtually bust-proof. I also think the Fautanu is significantly better than what I thought was going to be available at 41. He is also very nasty. In this scenario, GB maintains a late second-round pick.

     

    I did not want to give up the 3rd rounder, but the Packers still have another 3rd and this move-up allows me to come away with two guys who, in reality, are top 15-20 picks. Side note, I chose Fautanu over Latham because Latham is more of a gap scheme player and is not the type of OL the Packers typically draft, though I also think he is going to be very good. Here is some OL stuff: 

     

     

    This is a classic dancing bear. 

     

     

    I am not a big PFF guy, but this says a lot:

     

    I love this player and fit. 

     

    With that, @GunnerBill and the Detroit Lions are on the clock.

    The Bills would only be short by 20 points in trade value.  I did request another late round pick to balance it out.

    Is this really the value? 
     

    Trade Back with Green Bay. Bills receive 41 (490) 58 (320) and 88 (150) Packers Receive 28 (660) 60 (320)

     

    feel like we’re getting a late 3rd round pick to move back 13 spots to the middle of the second round. Beane would’ve done better 

     

    In theory, the Bills could use some of these extra picks late picks to move back up in that 35 range and they get back the 3rd rounder they lost in the Douglas trade.

    So I know the Co offensive coordinator there on a personal level and I interviewed with their former HC John Steigelmeier who retired recently. I was very high on Tucker Kraft last year as the guy I know Ryan Olsen coached TEs when he was there. 
     

    McCormick is raw but he has all the traits to be a high level guard at the next level so I do hs e a little bias 

     

    I love it and they seem to like those guys to develop. Ryan Van Denmark, and Tommy Doyle..high RAS moldable people.

    McCormick has a chance to go in round 3 def see him off the board in the 4th. Been super high on him throughout the process. I have a strong insight into the SDSU program 

     

    He is very intersting! I see 4-6 around, but I don't grade guys or anything, just repeated what I saw out there. Thanks! 

     

    To me athletes like that are so moldable.

    i was trying to find some info on it but haven't yet been able to find a good source.... but I have a really interesting thought. Wait until the 5th or 6th round and find a high RAS OL - likely a guard - and talk to him. Make sure he he is fast with good feet and tell him we will draft him to be a powerback fullback.

     

    Talk to a few guys. There is likely a high RAS OL that will last in the 6th or 7th that we can do something with.

     

    Ask and you shall receive: 

     

     

    Got another: 

     

     

  13. With the 25th pick in the TSW mock draft 2024 2.0 the Green Bay Packers select Cooper DeJean, DB, Iowa
     

    I will start off by saying I think this is a great fit for the Packers, but will also say I do not think DeJean will be here. He just crushed his private pro day the other day. Brian Gutekunst loves to draft high RAS players in the first round. New DC Jeff Hafley has expressed that he wants secondary guys who are versatile, strong in zone and in press man. They also must be able to tackle. That’s DeJean. He feels very much like a Packers type player. When you watch DeJean play, he is so instinctive and smart in coverage and almost runs the route for the receiver. He has tremendous ball skills, has a bunch of interceptions and loves to tackle. He is also an explosive return guy. I doubt the Packers pick up the 5th year option on Eric Stokes who just can’t stay healthy. DeJean becomes his replacement. He is also a Swiss Army knife. He can play outside, inside, slot, deep safety, box safety. His explosive athletic testing just check a box and I think he is nearly bust proof. Watching a ton of Jack Campbell last year DeJean just really kept popping off the screen. 
     

    The first play against Rutgers is him in a nutshell. He runs the route for the receiver and gets on top of him, makes a ridiculous catch (similar to the one Diggs couldn’t haul in vs KC) then returns it for a TD. The second highlight is a nasty punt return and the third is great route recognition as he basically reads the whip route, a tough route to defend and turns it into a pick six. 
     

     

    Finally here are his RAS scores from his recent workout:

     

     

    @Logic and the Bucs are now on the clock.
