BBI Mock Draft – DISCUSSION Thread

Matt G : 4/1/2018 10:46 pm
We will use this as a discussion thread to keep the SELECTIONS thread uncluttered. These threads will be used for the duration of the entire draft.

Once a team is on the clock, they will have two hours to make a selection. If a team goes on the clock after 4pm, their two hour window will roll over to the next day. For example, if you go on the clock at 4:30pm, you will have until 9:30 am to make a selection. Picks may be made between 6pm and 9am if GMs are online and following the draft thread. The time limit only applies during the 9am to 6pm timeframe. If the two hour time limit expires, I will make a pick using any list that the GM for the team has sent me in advance (send lists to the email address in my profile) or in the absence of a list, I will use the GBN Big Board with a little discretion so as not make an obvious dumb pick (i.e.: Philadelphia Eagles won’t be taking a QB in the 1st round this year). If a GM misses two consecutive picks without providing a prospect list or making some form of contact with me (email or posting on the draft thread) the spot will be reassigned to one of the BBIers who have expressed an interest to fill the vacancy.

Please utilize the BBI Mock Draft Spreadsheet . The spreadsheet contains the draft order (RD1-6) by team and GM with a fairly comprehensive list of both available and taken prospects based on the GBN Big Board (as well as several other prospects that did not make the GBN Big Board). I will try to keep the spreadsheet and thread updated as often as possible.

jlukes has less than 30 minutes left  
Mike in NY : 4/13/2018 10:33 am : link
Considering their recent signing of Marquette King I am going to have to suggest we bypass the P :(

Next name on the list is Derrick Nnadi and since Denver has not gone for a DT yet I am tempted to go with that as the autopick unless anyone has an objection.

Pete from Woodstock : 4/13/2018 10:35 am : link
totally agree with you. I really like what I saw of him in a couple games I watched. The 49ers were going to take him in the later rounds but James Washington fell into our hands and he was too good to pass up!!
waiting on jlukes  
Pete from Woodstock : 4/13/2018 10:35 am : link

Nnadi is a nice value

in the 5th round high motor guy, a bit smallish but good film on him
Mike  
MadPlaid : 4/13/2018 10:38 am : link
Sounds good to me. Nnadi makes sense for the Broncos.

Odd that jlukes hasn't popped in here to make his pick. He has been checking in regularly. Even early this morning.
My picks are in for when I am up

Hopefully he checks in. He had an autopick last time around, so he making his own pick here is critical.

He already picked!

BigBlueDownTheShore, Matt said he was going to be in the field today with limited access to e-mail. Perhaps e-mail MadPlaid your board

On Tuesday I had a bad virus and I felt like garbage. I didn't check BBI until a couple hours after my pick.
Mike  
MadPlaid : 4/13/2018 11:13 am : link
Uh, BigBlueDownTheShore doesn't have my e-mail address.

BBDTS, how about post on here your list? You only need to put 4 guys considering there are only 3 teams before you.

Crap, that's crazy. Sorry to hear that, but very glad you are okay now. Yeah, I knew you wouldn't be too happy about the autopick. At least it was a guy who fits well with the Broncos.
Was actually misdiagnosed at the first hospital I went to in early  
jlukes : 4/13/2018 11:28 am : link
March. Spend 3 days there and got discharged. Drove myself to a different ER a week later when pain and symptoms returned.

I almost died.
Thankfully the infection walled itself off in my pelvis and created a  
jlukes : 4/13/2018 11:31 am : link
large abscess rather than spreading through my abdomen and causing me to go septic. Had a drain in my pelvis for about a week and was on a ton of antibiotics.

Lost about 13% of my body weight. Finally eating normal and feeling almost 100%

I go in May 10th to have whats left of my appendix removed

Holy shit, Dude!  
MadPlaid : 4/13/2018 11:40 am : link
My wife encountered something similar and almost died because of a burst appendix. She was only 11 at the time, and was laid up at the hospital for a long while.

I am really happy to hear that the snafu at the first hospital didn't cost you dearly. Sons of bitches.

I don't see any more picks for Big Blue in 6 or 7.

Correct. You're done. I see you found another use for all that excess tissue on Orlando Brown: a new meniscus for Nick Nelson. Seriously, Nelson should be OK after surgery. He'd better be: the secondary needs immediate help.

Anyway, since it's easy to criticize, here's Andy's draft and what I might have done:
Sam Darnold QB USC (My Pick: Same or QB Josh Rosen - a tossup)
Orlando Brown OT Oklahoma (My pick: C/G Billy Price)
Shaquem Griffin OLB Central Florida (My pick: OLB Kemoko Turay)
Kerryon Johnson RB Auburn (My pick: RB Nick Chubb or WR D.J. Chark)
Marcel Ateman WR Oklahoma State (My pick: DE Breeland Speaks or OT Geron Christian)
Nick Nelson CB Wisconsin (My pick: Same or DT Derrick Nnadi)

Pretty similar overall. I'm not quite as much of a fence-swinger as Andy, and I think we need to add at least one two-handed pass-rusher.
I just realized Milton would be a huge fan of my draft.
Boylhart grades for my picks:
Darnold - 1.34
Brown - 1.49
Griffin - 2.33
Johnson - 1.69
Ateman - 1.89
Nelson - NR

I gather the first number is the round as that corresponds to his descriptions. Lower the number the better it seems. I've never been a big fan of Boylhart to be honest, so that does not bode well for my draft, lol.
Glad I caught this

Thank you. We will give you a few minutes to make your own selection when you turn comes up. If after about 15 minutes, you don't post, I will make certain to select your highest remaining guy. Best

Considering New Orleans just signed their P to a 5 year contract, Dickson doesn't quite make sense here. Second on the list is also a P! Next after that is Troy Fumagalli/TE/Wisconsin. Can't see a reason to bypass at this point since New Orleans has not mock drafted a TE. Open for discussion though.

I don't think any P or K should be part of the auto draft.

Just because it is the weekend  
Mike in NY : 4/13/2018 11:06 pm : link
Doesn’t mean we can’t make progress. Currently at pick 149 (which means 70 picks to go). The pace has slowed during the week so if we want to be able to get this over by next Friday we need to pick it up a bit. We started off like gang busters.
I've got no picks in Round 5 for the Fish.  
Optimus-NY : 4/14/2018 12:57 am : link
I've got one pick though in the 6th round (#209 overall) for them. We'll be done by next Friday, I'm sure. IF we can get to pick #158 by the end of the weekend--we're at 149 now, so that's only 10 more to go until then--,which is realistic, then that'll only leave us with 60 picks over 5 weekdays. I think we can average 12 a day for the week. So far, so good.

Ravens 5th Round pick  
Mike in NY : 4/14/2018 1:21 pm : link
Happy that Quessenberry fell to #154 as I have seen some who have listed him as a 3rd/4th round prospect. Ravens lost Ryan Jensen to Free Agency, but I was never in a position with my prior picks to select a C without reaching. Glad need and value came together with this pick.
Emails have been sent to SEA and NYJ  
Matt G : 4/14/2018 1:53 pm : link
After my selection, i will auto-pick for NE (unless Torrag checks in the meantime)... I also have the pick for Buffalo at #166... I'm hopefully that we can get through most of RD5 this weekend...
Hi Matt  
MadPlaid : 4/14/2018 2:37 pm : link
Is there a reason why we are auto picking for Torrag on the weekend?
He submitted a board for his first two picks only...  
Matt G : 4/14/2018 2:56 pm : link
Then after time expired on his new two picks, we were able to pull players who had not yet been selected from his original list... His 5th pick was auto selected... He has been online, but has not checked in since 4/5...
Okay  
MadPlaid : 4/14/2018 2:58 pm : link
Does this mean Torrag is in danger of being replaced?
