Really love this one and tried to keep it as realistic as I could. Traded back with the Cowboys then the Saints at 30 (Which I pretended was still Miami)

Doubled up on LB and Edge with premium picks while also finding Jamel Deans replacement in Colton Hood. Physical CB who will bring some nastiness to this team. Both Boerkircher and Coogan have quality depth upside who I think would be able to make the opening roster

Was able to grab another 2nd for next years loaded class as well. I think this is about as good as it gets while trying to stay realistic

  1. Love it, although I’m not sure I’d call a double trade down realistic in this draft. But great pics at LB, CB, and prioritizing edge

  2. I really hope we do get a trade down scenario like this. I’ve done dozens and dozens of these and everybody that ends up at 15 just doesn’t seem like a good value option.

    Really I’m curious if anybody has insight into which teams think would actually want to move up to 15.

    Maybe someone looking for Sadiq, or a guard or one of those remaining wide receivers.

    Seems tough to find a partner, but there seems to be a lot of really good value at the top of the second.

  3. Any mock draft with defense for the first 6 picks gets an upvote from me. Hoping for big 2019 draft energy

  4. Hood is going higher than that and needs a wr in 4 th or 5th round .

    A decent draft

  5. These sims will let you trade out of every pick, I know we all want a trade down but a double dip is just not realistic. Two off ball linebackers in the top 4 rounds is way too much of an investment in a position that has 4 guys on the final 53, especially when Bowles *hates* playing young guys at the position. There’s probably an edge at 30 that would help the team more. Crawford is nice as a scratch ticket late round edge, he’s got nice stuff. Halton is a poor mans Kancey as a teeny DT that you probably only want on the field in nickel looks.

  6. I’m loving all these trade-down mocks. That’s the best outcome for us

  7. Trading back is fine if you can get extra value out of the deal, but don’t forget that helping the Saints is negative value.
