2 Mock Draft Simulations


Recommended Posts

I did two separate mocks on Fan Speak. Settings I used were Fanspeak Mock, Fanspeak Needs, Difficult.  This does not allow for trades. My thoughts entering this was where do I look at Jackson and Allen if at all. I decided I would consider Jackson at #22 but not Allen at all. I don't like either. College QB's with the amount of rush yards Jackson had in college have a huge bust rate. Only Michael Vick and Cam Newton have really worked out as comparable players to Jackson in rush yards in college, then a long list of busts. Allen seems afraid to just step up and that scares the crap out of me. His line was bad, but he doesn't step up when he has time. Bails very early. I just don't want him.  Mayfield/Darnold/Rosen all were selected before I could take them. 

 

Here are my drafts with the settings I mentioned above as well as a link to the site: https://fanspeak.com/ontheclock/

 

Draft 1

Round 1  #12: LB Tremain Edmunds: With only Jackson and Allen left to choose from, Bills go best player available at a need position.

Round 1 #22:  DT Maurice Hurst: Bills decide to pass on Allen landing a very disruptive pass rushing interior lineman.   

Round 2 #21: WR Christian Kirk: Thick, quick, great hands. Bills go best WR left on the board

Round 2: #24: CB M.J. Stewart: Bills love his flexibility on defense, great run defender, physical, can play S or CB, some people comp him to Micah Hyde

Round 3: # 1: C/G Billy Price: Torn Pec makes this former first rounder slide. Bills get a steal with a guy that can play C or G.

Round 3: #32: DE Rasheem Green: Bills love Greens pass rushing ability. 10 sack year in 2017, some question run support, with Shaq it gives the Bills a great rotation

 

Draft 2

Round 1 #12: DE/EDGE Harold Landry: With only Jackson and Allen left to choose from, Bills catch a break and have one of the drafts best pass rushers fall. Some comps have him with Vic Beasley. Imposing pass rusher that will mature to be a 10 sack a year guy.

Round 1 #22:  DT Maurice Hurst: Bills decide to pass on Allen landing a very disruptive pass rushing interior lineman.  

Round 2 #21: WR Christian Kirk: Thick, quick, great hands. Bills go best WR left on the board

Round 2 #24: CB M.J. Stewart: Bills love his flexibility on defense, great run defender, physical, can play S or CB, some people comp him to Micah Hyde

Round 3 #1: QB Kyle Lauletta: Bills pass on the first wave of QB's and eventually land a guy they like

Round 3 #32:  LB Leighton Vander Esch: Bills continue to fortify the defense with a guy that could go as early as round 2. 

 

I don't think either of these drafts gets the fan base going, we all want the franchise guy. I think the Bills trust AJ enough to avoid getting fleeced in the franchise QB war. If the right guy doesn't fall we could be out of the market.

I just don't see the rationale.  Browns and Colts will take a qb.  Giants and Broncos might.  I kinda doubt the Gmen go qb.  You make a small trade up to seven and maybe grab the third qb off the board.  Absolutely no reason to get shut out of the qb market and no need to "get fleeced."

 

I suspect we take the top rated lb on the board at 22.  I doubt Billy Price makes it out of the second.  Vander Esch might go in the first.  I like DJ Chark over Kirk, but I'd be happy with either.

I know its simulated, kzoo, but I read these and went immediately back to doing my taxes as it was just a tad more fun.

 

if I die and the only QB we get in two mocks is lauletta please put me face down in the coffin as it will be too hard to roll over due to my size, the coffins size and the fact that I am dead.

I thought Hurst got sent home from the  combine with a serious medical condition?  If so, I don't want him as a #1..........surprised he showed up here, then.....

That could be true, I was basing that more on the pre combine stuff. I didn't read that yet so I didn't factor it.

Kzoo, as long as they get a QB that they are high on then I'm good.  If they love A guy and can get him I have no problem with picking 5 potential starters/heavy contributors at other positions, with current emphasis on LB, WR and OL.

That was very cool website ... my outcome ... I moved up and spent some of next year's capital to get a great LBer. Then I traded down, twice, to compile back the picks this year and get Lamar Jackson, both the OSU WRs, a good TE to split out wide, got a gift in Orlando Brown being available in the 3rd round.
