I Got Killed In Mafia (Pre-Everything Mock Offseason)

[kdels62]

Some notes ahead of this monster of a post 

• I don't believe in ratings for EDGE players before the combine so I kinda just went with consensus.
• I made trades but did not account for the picks we would get in return because it's too damn much even for me. 
• I hate Verbal for shooting me and forcing me to do something else with my free time.
• We start with about $50m in Cap Space
• Then I did some draft simulators to fill out the team - I included my two favorites from each of the two popular simulators.

If we wait until our second third round pick for an OT in a draft loaded with them.

haha. I hated that draft. The big 4 were gone and since I couldn’t trade out I took Jeudy. You would’ve hated the mock where Okudah dropped to me and there was no OT or Jeudy.

I really like what you have done here. Prefer the 2nd mock. I'm going with that for sure. Mainly b/c it gives us Becton with Beachum resigned as insurance, Weaver- who I love, and Mims and Jennings, both favorites. Maybe instead of Adams I would have looked for a C or G but whatever.

At that point in the mock, any true C or G worth taking was gone. Adams has the ability and the further away from injury he gets hopefully the better he plays. 
 

Also while I don’t love the first mock, it serves the purpose of creating depth for the roster and really pumping the team with skill players. Getting Jeudy and Swift puts us in a great spot going forward with Darnold.
