And there are always surprises/reaches that push others down, I wouldn't rule it out. There's a glut of Edge guys in that range for teams looking at pass rush potential and people are gassing up Jamin Davis at LB now, so who knows. Every year the first round ends and there are 4-5 guys out there that nobody thought would be available in the 2nd. He's absolutely perfect for Graham's defense so he's a run to the podium guy for sure.

PFF has their bias embedded in that simulator - players like Zaven Collins and Dyami Brown are always available later than expected, while players like Jamar Johnson (S, Indiana) start getting propped up as best available by the middle of the second round.
Fanspeak is wonky in its own way, but avoids a bit of the PFF oddities and would have have been a good way to run a second mock to sanity-check his PFF output.
Paul remains out of touch.

weird things happen in the draft.

Can you really blame them though? As we see this time of year on BBI, mock drafts get the clicks.
I just wish some of them would be a bit more creative in their format.
