I like your approach, though it is vastly different to mine as your draft is top-loaded while mine is more spread out. I like the Holmes pick, but I personally feel that Santonio Holmes will go to the Giants at 25 if he is still available. However, it's plausible enough that they will go with someone else for this to remain realistic. I like the selections at each lower pick, especially because they are neither reaches nor expectant of massive drops.maverick4 said:Moves (the Chicago trade doesn't happen first):
- Pats #21 for Denver #37, #68, #161
- Chicago #26 for Pats #52, #86, #106, #136, #161, #191
Strategy/Rationale:
I am not in love with any player for a specific position, and would be happy to draft any similarly skilled player left in a position value grouping. In terms of decisions, I want to draft the position that has fewer players left in my own scouting groupings at the time.
Position Groupings for expected players left at our pick range:
WR - HOLMES, Nance, Stovall, Avant, Jennings
OL - MANGOLD, Lutui, Colledge, Winston
DE/OLB - KIWANUKA, Tapp, Edwards, Gacong
ILB - HODGE, Wilkerson, Parham, Hoyte
Players in BOLD are ones you should take if at all available, because they have dropped and are good value at the earliest pick.
Overall Picks Guess:
#26: Holmes
#37: Kiwanuka
#68: Lutui
#75: Wilkerson
#118: Hoyte
#205,206,209: The future David Givens, Adam Vinatieri, Tom Brady, or Rodney Harrison.
Btw, I would laugh my *** off if we traded up to #14 and then down again. Even if we got all busts that year, I would still call it the greatest draft ever.
