Yes, you just read in peoples draft plan posts, that they keep a certain amount to one side for the new draftees and I was wondering what it would cost if you drafted half a squad in one fell swoop lol
The rookie salary scale is fixed so it is just a matter of doing the math. Spotrac is a good resource.
There was one forced trade but I did that by accident, I clicked the box for force trade and didn't notice as I was altering the terms.
This is a no-trade simulation to estimate what our draft might look like if KT drops to us. I've used The Draft Network simulator: 4. New York Jets Kayvon Thibodeaux EDGE, Oregon 10. New York Jets Treylon Burks WR, Arkansas 35. New York Jets Zion Johnson IOL, Boston College 38. New York Jets Trey McBride TE, Colorado State 69. New York Jets Damone Clark LB, LSU 109. New York Jets Channing Tindall LB, Georgia 115. New York Jets Josh Jobe CB, Alabama 145. New York Jets Justyn Ross WR, Clemson 162. New York Jets Kennedy Brooks RB, Oklahoma
EDIT: I also was able to get the first four picks (KT, Burks, Johnson, McBride) on the PFF simulator. These four players may well be available for the Jets if KT continues to fall. The other players in the PFF were LB's Asamoah and Quay Walker at 69 and 115; CB Goodrich at 109; TE Ferguson at 145; and RB Brooks at 162.
Here's my first attempt using Pro Football Network's Draft Simulator: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/mockdraft/ 4. Evan Neal OT Alabama 10. Jermaine Johnson EDGE Florida State 35.Trey McBride TE Colorado State 38.John Metchie III WR Alabama 69.Channing Tindall LB Georgia 116.Yusuf Corker S Kentucky 120. James Cook RB Georgia 146.Dontario Drummond WR Mississippi 158.Mike Rose LB Iowa State 163.Bubba Bolden S Miami-Fl Not perfect, but I'd be pretty happy if things worked out like this.
Just got the perfect 4 rd draft of the PFF simulator. Ojobo must have had a great combine bc he went 2 to the Lions. #4 - Hutch 4 EDGES went along with 2 CB an LB while ATL and Den took WRs…. All realistic picks (esp if Denver trades for Rodgers and GB looks to replace Adams) leaving #10 - S Hamilton #35 LB Lloyd #38 G Zion Johnson #68 WR Skyy Moore #108 TE Ruckert #114 RB Algeier
My latest attempt, didn't draft any CBs, this is a stopping the running the ball down our throats draft 14. Jameson Williams WR Alabama trade icon NYJ 18. David Ojabo EDGE Michigan trade icon NYJ 35. Charles Cross OT Mississippi State NYJ 38. Perrion Winfrey DT Oklahoma NYJ 46. Chad Muma LB Wyoming trade icon NYJ 49. Isaiah Likely TE Coastal Carolina trade icon NYJ 51. Christian Harris LB Alabama trade icon NYJ 77. Myjai Sanders EDGE Cincinnati trade icon NYJ 146. Yusuf Corker S Kentucky NYJ 163. Hassan Haskins RB Michigan 2023 MIN 2nd
Dream scenario? PFF's Mock Trade 1 (Baltimore): 4 for 14,46, 78 and BAL's 2023 2nd Rounder Trade 2 (New Orleans): 10 for 18, 50 and NO's 2023 2nd Rounder 14. Tyler Linderbaum, C, Iowa 18. Treylon Burks, WR, Arkansas 36. Arnold Ebiketie, Edge, Penn State 38. Devonte Waytt, DI, Georgia 47. Trey McBride, TD, Colorado State 50. Lewis Cine, S, Georgia 68. Chad Muma, LB, Wyoming 78. Leo Chenal, LB, Wisconsin 108. Jeremy Ruckert, TE, Ohio State 114. Kellen Diesche, OT, Arizona State 145. Tyler Allgeier, RB, BYU 161. Cole Strange, G, Chattanooga
That PFF Simulator is fun, thanks for sharing. Trade: #4 for #8, 40, and 2023 2nd. 8. Ahmad Gardner, Sauce, CB: 10. David Ojabo, Edge: Trade: #36 and #108 for #26. 26. Jahan Dotson, WR: 38. Zion Johson, G: 40. Devonte Wyatt, DI: 68. Channing Tindall, LB: 114: Tyler Smith, T: 145: Greg Dulcich TE: 161: Rachaad White, RB: General comments: The top 2 edge rushers were off the board, so I chose to move back a few spots to acquire another top 40 pick. There will be a lot of good options in this range, plus it gave me more flexibility to move up if needed. It's no secret I love Sauce. He hasnt allowed a TD since HS, and allowed less than 200yds against all season. I know many don't value CB, however in Salehs stops in Jacksonville and Seattle, he had Ramsey and Sherman, which helped elevate the unit. Yes, he had very good fronts, and with the depth of this draft, I chose to wait until pick 10, where I grabbed Ojabo. His upside is as high as anyone in this class, and he has the work ethic and leadership skills to fully meet his potential. In the middle of round 1 there was a run on WRs, so I decided to make a trade for a player I really like in Dotson. I know his skill set is similar to Elijah's, and it would be good to add a WR with Size, but I couldn't resist. He's got both long speed and short are quickness, he's sudden in his route running, creates separation, good ball skill, YAC, and versatile. He can do it all, and the more of these guys you have the better. I liked the OL prospects that dropped to me. Zion would be a day one starter at RG, that has LG/center flexibility. Smith is a high upside swing tackle for us, with coaching on technique he could be a future starter at RT. He has athleticism and nastiness to his game. If he fails outside he'd be a mauler RG, and we could kick Zion to Center, when we decide to move on from McGovern. Regarding TE, I missed on my top guy Ruckert by a few picks, but the consolation prize is pretty good in Dulcich. He'd be a nice option for Zach to move the chains and attack the seam. He's pretty athletic as a converted WR. Hes versatile, and they moved him around a lot. Blocking is not his strength, but he gives effort. Would need to add a blocking TE in FA.
Traded away our picks in rounds 3-7 next year but picked up two firsts, two seconds, and a fourth. 21 Ahmad Gardner CB Cincinnati 35 Nakobe Dean LB Georgia 38 Lewis Cine S Georgia 43 Jahan Dotson WR Penn State 52 Chad Muma LB Wyoming 53 Jalen Wydermyer TE Texas A&M 59 Arnold Ebiketie EDGE Penn State 74 Kyren Williams RB Notre Dame 85 Jake Ferguson TE Wisconsin 90 Alec Lindstrom OC Boston College 108 Kaleb Eleby QB Western Michigan 118 Jerome Ford RB Cincinnati 130 Cam Taylor-Britt CB Nebraska 131 Jeffrey Gunter EDGE Coastal Carolina 171 Cole Strange OG Chattanooga 2023 LV 1st 2023 PIT 1st 2023 CAR 2nd 2023 NE 2nd 2023 ATL 4th
4. Kayvon Thibodeaux Edge Oregon 10. Treylon Burks WR Arkansas 35. Zion Johnson OG Boston College 38. Chad Muma LB Wyoming 69. Kyren Williams RB Notre Dame 110. Jeremy Ruckert TE Ohio State 116. Haskell Garrett DT Ohio State 146. Cade York K LSU 163. Quentin Lake S UCLA
As much as I like the players you took and their value you really can't get the best results unless you make some trades. Staying put at four for Thibodeaux is hard to criticize but there are plenty of other first rounders that aren't far off from Burks that could be had cheaper.
This one was a lot of fun. If you work the phones until they bleed you can get this haul: 15 Ahmad Gardner CB Cincinnati 16 Jameson Williams WR Alabama 23 David Ojabo EDGE Michigan 26 Drake London WR USC 35 Perrion Winfrey DT Oklahoma 2023 CAR 1st 2023 CAR 2nd I did trade away our fourth and seventh rounders in 2023 to make this happen. Added pass rush, a run stuffer, a nasty cover corner, and two studs at receiver while adding two valuable picks for the future. All we need now is a Panthers voodoo doll.
Here is one for the ages: 5 Kyle Hamilton S Notre Dame 12 Garrett Wilson WR Ohio State 17 Ahmad Gardner CB Cincinnati 28 Nakobe Dean LB Georgia 46 Isaiah Spiller RB Texas A&M 59 Kingsley Enagbare EDGE South Carolina 100 Nik Bonitto EDGE Oklahoma I had to trade away our fourth and fifth round picks to get Bonito but I think I made the right call. Special thanks to the Giants who swapped both first round picks with us and then traded up from 10 to 7 to add Evan Neal and Kenyon Green to their offensive line.
I doubt this will ever happen, but if it did, I'd be happy with it. This is an example of where trading up to get the player(s) you believe will help sooner is a good use of resources.
