Their player rankings are wacked compared to most sites, How in the heck can you have DE/OLB Brian Burns ranked as a better prospect then OLB Josh Allen who some feel is the best defensive player in the draft?!?!

I like it. I wish there were an easy way to copy and paste the results though.

I've been playing with this newest simulator for a week or two. The internal big board has been changing quite a bit. These changes seem to reflect the fluctuations in draft stock we would expect leading up to the draft. That's a good thing. This forced me out of my convention of taking DL with the first pick.

I wouldn't mind Minshaw as a ate round guy

Agreed the rankings are suspect. But name one of these draft game sites that doesn't have wierd rankings. First Pick is really, really bad. FanSpeak gives you a choice of which odd rankings you want to use and now there's Draft Network. I just try to pick around the silliness as best I can.

Personal preference.

I think the only thing Burns is missing is weight. His ceiling could be higher.

Burns is a year younger both chronologically and college football experience-wise, but is the more refined pass rusher already. You'll see him counter more often, and he has a diverse repertoire.

I think Allen has a couple good moves, but NFL tackles will be better prepared for them if he doesn't develop more. He kind of reminds me of Bud Dupree in the fact that he gets by a decent bit on raw athleticism. He's not quite as raw and is definitely better in space than Dupree.

Burns putting on 10 lbs from age 20 to 21, which my personal experience has shown isn't overly difficult, would effectively make them the same size with Burns actually having the edge in wingspan and hand size. (Adding weight could be a little more difficult for him with his frame than it was for me, but I don't think it's unrealistic)

I don't agree with a bunch of their takes, but this one isn't too bad in my opinion.

I think Burns will end up being the 2nd best pass rusher after Bosa in this class.

these guys are some of the best in the business. They are usually in on guys way before Big Media draft guys are....if you like the draft, I would follow them on Twitter or read their website through the whole year as they were on DK Metcalf back in August/Sept, Garrett Bradbury in Sept/Oct, think Rashan Gary is overrated, etc.

At times they can be slower then others on some small school or underclassmen they didn't expect to declare

These guys have Warring rated even higher than I do. And I think this is the site that has Grdner-Johnson as a top 20 prospect

But...I'd take Dillard at 49 in a blink

I doubt your 1st 2 requests are available in our draft position.

Dillard will be gone mid 1st round and Rapp late 1st to early 2nd round.

I didn't make the draft engine. smile

I took who I liked based on what the site said was available. And I stand behind taking Dillard if magically available at 49. smile

That said...yes I could create a more realistic mock using my pinky finger and some elmer's glue.

We don't even need a RB, but Mike Weber in the 7th is too good a value to pass on.

David Long is a steal where I got him here. Kendall Sheffield will be on PUP, but he is a value there as well.

Thats why I don't like these mocks cause its so unrealistic. Isiah Johnson is my sleeper pick and we would be lucky to get him at 49. Didn't watch too much film on him but unless the kid is a total Spazz...he's going to be a great CB for somebody! I hope us!!!

yeah usually the case with guys I like...49 is actually unrealistic. I think he will be a definite top 20 pick.

Devin White early but if now I would be wanting Johnson for us at #17. Oh well OBJ better be kick butt, I'm sure he will be! Actually pretty amazing WR and I don't say that about any WRs... wink
