We will use this as a discussion thread to keep the picks thread uncluttered. These threads will be used for the duration of the 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. Kansas City 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 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… Good luck!
I like Dye quite a bit too, went back and forth between Wilson and Dye several times.
Tyler Johnson is smooooooth. He's a ten year NFL guy, IMO. Not flashy, won't be your #1 but just a damn good football player.
Based on the rules the next man up is Darnay Holmes, a CB from UCLA. I see no reason bypassing him based on the needs of the Jets.

Yessir!

Too funny how that worked out.
Dantzler was #2 on my list for pick 106. In hindsight I should have taken I. Wilson at 60, Dantzler at 106, and waited until Round 4 to select my RB
If you send me your list I will happily select two names from it!
Edwards has the broken foot right now but Edwards is a stud WR. He will be perfect with Cooper and Gallup . Another weapon for Dak when he recovers and they start playing football again.

Man, all my guys are getting picked up. My wish list is getting shredded.

His list is as follows...
QB Reid Sinnett
FB Richie Worshop
LS Steven Wirtel
They may not fall to you though

So noted
Pats run game suffered last season. They couldn't get movement at the PoA. Stenberg will contribute there.
Shhhhhhhh just let him pick from YOUR list.

Uh, no. Wasn't looking at those guys at all. Sarcasm?

Oh!! Uh, yeah, looking hard at those guys. Value off the charts. All really good at catering. You know how much Green Bay likes its crab puffs.

See how his board is down to 3 names... it's working!
Sweet! Philly's selection of Gabriel Davis was one of the other names on my 3 person list. I figured my third guy had the best shot at falling to 134 hence why I decided to go with Fotu first
I’ve really been trying to nab the heir apparent to Brees’, but the value has yet to match with the selection.
Brees with Kamara, MThomas, Sanders, Higgins (1st round selection) and Moss gives us an explosive group to take the next step in elite offensive production for another glory ride with Brees under center
Anfernee Jennings
Logan Wilson
Cameron Dantzler
Bryan Edwards
Gabriel Davis and
Leki Fotu
Crazy! None sneaked through. You guys are tough.

Welcome to the club! This looks like an incredibly deep draft and I am sure there will be plenty of UDFA's both in the Mock Draft and in real life who people had 4th and 5th Round grades on. The biggest issue appears to be that it is just so deep that you get into tiers where your current pick and your next pick will be from the same tier of players even though they are a round apart in real life. After the 3 guys I narrowed it down to (Davis, Fotu, and hopefully pick 134), I feel like what is available will be the same quality as when I go again at 170.
Fotu is a mammoth of a human being. Tennessee absolutely gashed the Ravens in the playoffs so adding some run stuffers up front was an area I wanted to address. A lot of experience playing different roles at Utah. I could see Ravens deploying him similar to the Giants and Dexter Lawrence.
Taylor was pure BPA when I picked. At this point I should not be looking at needs because I am not drafting a Day 1 starter. Intriguing athletic ability and upside. Even though I took Queen earlier, Taylor reminds me more of a Deon Grant role at least initially. Also should be a stud on Special Teams which is important to Coach Harbaugh.
You had Jackson above where I would have selected him, but I really like your picks of Winfield, Claypool, and Wilson where you landed them.
LOL. Mongoes indeed kind sir, mongoes indeed. I've got the same issue. We're bargain basement shoppin' here now!
Back aftuh diss...
