I thought this would be something fun to do. It is a little time consuming, but it really only took me 15 minutes using NFL.com's draft tracker. I was just curious to see how accurate everyone was with their picks and how well they did drafting their players. I don't know if I did to well, I guess it could've been worse. I only missed with one player, who I still think is going to be a good one. We'll see in time. Looking at the way it turned out, I would have looked awesome if I was the Steelers, Packers, or Redskins GM. Ha How did you guys do? BALTIMORE RAVENS, IIMeanDeanII Rd 1 - Derek Sherrod, OT, Miss St Rd 2 - Davon House, CB, New Mexico St Rd 3 - Jarvis Jenkins, DE, Clemson Rd 4 - Niles Paul, WR, Nebraska Rd 5 - Owen Marecic, FB/LB, Stanford Rd 5 - Chris Culliver, S, South Carolina Rd 6 - Tori Gurley, WR, South Carolina Rd 7 - Cortez Allen, CB, Citadel Rd 7 - Keith Williams, OG, Nebraska ********************************************************** Actual Draft: Derek Sherrod, OT, Miss St - 1st Rd - Packers Davon House, CB, New Mexico St - 4th RD - Packers Jarvis Jenkins, DE, Clemson - 2nd RD - Redskins Niles Paul, WR, Nebraska - 5th RD - Redskins Owen Marecic, FB, Stanford - 4th RD - Browns Chris Culliver, S, South Carolina - 3rd RD - 49ers Tori Gurley, WR, South Carolina - N/A UDFA Cortez Allen, CB, Citadel - 4th RD - Steelers Keith Williams, OG, Nebraska - 6th RD - Steelers
DENVER BRONCOS, Green Hurricane Rd 1 - Nick Fairley, DT, Auburn Rd 1 Lions Rd 2 - Aaron Williams, CB, Texas Rd 2 Bills Rd 2 - Kyle Rudolph, TE, Notre Dame Rd 2 Vikings Rd 3 - Ryan Williams, RB, Virginia Tech Rd 2 Cardinals Rd 6 - Ricky Elmore, DE, Arizona Rd 6 Packers Rd 7 - Armon Binns, WR, Cincinnati Undrafted Deadly accurate with the value here. PHILADELPHIA EAGLES, Green Hurricane Rd 1 - Brandon Harris, CB, Miami Rd 2 Texans Rd 2 - Danny Watkins, OG, Baylor Rd 1 Eagles Rd 3 - Chris Carter, LB, Fresno St Rd 5 Steelers Rd 4 - Daniel Thomas, RB, Kansas State Rd 2 Dolphins Rd 4 - Joe Lefeged, S, Rutgers Undrafted Rd 5 - Pat Devlin, QB, Delaware Undrafted Rd 5 - Mo Mohammed, LB, California Rd 6 Browns Rd 7 - Zach Pianalto, TE, North Carolina Undrafted Rd 7 - Dane Sanzenbacher, WR, Ohio State Undrafted Rd 7 - Ladi Ajiboye, DT, South Carolina Undrafted Not so much here, the streak of undrafteds killed me. In my defense, absolutely no reason that Lefeged shouldn't have been picked.
NEW ORLEANS SAINTS, CodeGreen Rd 1 - Ryan Kerrigan, DE, Purdue Rd 2 - Mason Foster, LB, Washington Rd 3 - Drake Nevis, DT, LSU Rd 3 - Shane Vereen, RB, California Rd 7 - DeQuin Evans, DE, Kentucky Rd 7 - Jarriel King, OT, South Carolina Kind of a mixed bag. Foster went a round latter and Vereen went a round earlier, Evans and King are both undrafted SEATTLE SEAHAWKS, CodeGreen Rd 1 - Mike Pouncey, OG/C, Florida Rd 2 - Titus Young, WR, Boise St Rd 4 - Robert Sands, S, West Virginia Rd 5 - Richard sherman, CB, Stanford Rd 5 - Chykie Brown, CB, Texas Rd 6 - Derek Hall, OT, Stanford Rd 7 - Colby Whitlock DT, Texas Tech Rd 7 - Joshua Portis QB, California (PA) Got Pouncey a few picks latter, Young, Sherman, and Browns were drafted in the same round I picked them. Hall Whitlock and Portis went undrafted
WASHINGTON REDSKINS, NDMick Rd 1 - Julio Jones, WR, Bama Rd 2 - Christian Ponder, QB, Florida State Rd 5 - Brandon Bair, DE, Oregon Rd 5 - Markus White DE, Florida State Rd 6 - Brandon Fusco, C, Slippery Rock Rd 7 - Chris Neild, NT, West Virginia Rd 7 - Colin Jones, FS, TCU Rd 7 - Mario Fannin, RB, Auburn Fannin and Bair didn't get drafted. Everyone else minus Ponder had the right value. Ponder went laughably early. Neild and White were actually drafted by the Skins!
I was just think about this good idea. CHICAGO BEARS, Harpua Rd 1 - Jonathan Baldwin, WR, Pitt ( Round 1- KC) Rd 2 - Clint Boling, OG, Georgia ( Round 4 - Cincy) Rd 3 - Kris O'Dowd, C, USC ( UDFA ) Rd 4 - Curtis Marsh, CB, Utah St ( Round 3 - Phi) Rd 5 - Taiwan Jones, RB, E. Washington ( Round 4 - Raiders) Rd 6 - Cecil Shorts, WR, Mount Union ( Round 4 Jags) Took Boling early and Wiffed on O'Dowd, But got good to very good value on Marsh, Jones, and Shorts. Of Six picks I had 1st, 1 3rd, and 3 4th rounders and 1 UDFA. I'm happy here. TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS, Harpua Rd 1 - Adrian Clayborn, DE, Iowa ( Round 1 - Tampa) Rd 2 - Curtis Brown, CB, Texas ( Round 3 - Steelers) Rd 3 - Colin McCarthy, LB, Maimi ( Round 4 - Titans) Rd 4 - Derrick Locke, RB, Kentucky ( UDFA ) Rd 5 - Jah Reid, OT, UCF ( Round 3 - Ravens) Rd 6 - Justin Rogers, CB, Richmond ( Round 7 - Bills) Rd 7 - Ricardo Lockette, WR, Fort Valley St (UDFA) Rd 7 - Chris Hairston, OT, Clemson ( Round 4 - Bills) Nailed the Clayborn pick. Too much predraft chatter about him being a possibility. Brown and McCarthy both a round early and Wiffed again on Locke and Lockette. Hairston looks like a absolute steal in the late 7th now though. Of 8 picks I had 1st, 2 3rds, 2 4ths 1 7th and two UDFA's. With both Reid and Hairston looking like very good additions to the O-line depth here I'm happy again with my draft despite missing badly on locke.
GREEN BAY PACKERS, - MagillaGuerilla Rd 1 - Jabaal Sheard, DE/OLB, Pitt (2nd Round to Cleveland, 7 picks later) Rd 2 - Jerrel Jernigan, WR, Troy (3rd Round to Giants) Rd 3 - Chimdi Chekwa, CB, Ohio State (4th Round to Oakland) Rd 4 - Pernell McPhee, DL, Miss St (5th Round to Baltimore) Rd 4 - Jacquizz Rodgers, RB, Oregon St (5th Round to Atlanta) Rd 5 - Steve Schilling, OL, Michigan (6th Round to San Diego) Rd 6 - Akeem Dent, ILB, Georgia (3rd Round to Atlanta) Rd 7 - DeAndre Brown, WR, Souther Miss (UDFA) Rd 7 - Gabe Miller, DE/OLB, Oregon St (5th Round to Kansas City) Positions drafted: OT WR RB CB TE OG ILB OLB TE DE CAROLINA PANTHERS,, MagillaGuerilla Rd 1 - Marcell Dareus, DT , Alabama (1st Round to Buffalo) Rd 3 - Jake Locker, QB, Washington (1st Round to Tennessee) Rd 3 - Jurell Casey, DT, USC (3rd Round to Tennessee) Rd 4 - Shareece Wright, CB , USC (3rd Round to San Diego) Rd 5 - Jordan Cameron, TE, USC (4th Round to Cleveland) Rd 6 - Doug Hogue, LB , Syracuse (5th to Detriot) Rd 6 - Zach Hurd, OG/OT, UConn (UDFA) Rd 7 - Byron Maxwell, CB/FS , Clemson (6th to Seattle) Positions Drafted: QB DT DT CB WR OLB C OT
MIAMI DOLPHINS, Sir Rd 1 - Tyron Smith, OT, USC (1st round to Dallas, 6 picks earlier) Rd 3 - Kendall Hunter, RB, Oklahoma State (Round 4 pick 115) Rd 4 - Lance Kendricks, TE, Wisconsin (Round 2 pick 47) Rd 5 - Jaiquawn Jarrett, S, Temple (Round 2 pick 54) Rd 6 - Bilal Powell, RB, Louisville (Round 4 pick 126) Rd 7 - Denarius Moore, WR, Tennessee (Round 5 pick 148) Rd 7 - Tyrod Taylor, QB, Virginia Tech (Round 6 pick 180) Rd 7 - Eddie Jones, OLB, Texas (Undrafted) Positions Drafted By Dolphins: OL RB WR TE DT CB Feel pretty good about what I did, got good value on my picks and hit on 4 out of 6 of the actual positions drafted.
BUFFALO BILLS, BakerMaker Rd 1 - Cam Newton, QB, Auburn- 1ST OVERALL PICK to CAR Rd 2 - Cameron Heyward, DE, Ohio State- ROUND 1 to PIT Rd 3 - Kelvin Sheppard, ILB, LSU- ROUND 3(Exact same spot) Rd 4 - Luke Stocker, TE, Tennessee- ROUND 4 to TB Rd 4 - Terrance Toliver, WR, LSU- UNDRAFTED Rd 5 - Rashad Carmichael, CB, Virginia Tech- ROUND 4 to HOU Rd 6 - Pierre Allen, DE, Nebraska- UNDRAFTED Rd 7 - Charles Clay, FB, Tulsa- UNDRAFTED Rd 7 - Willie Smith, OT, East Carolina- UNDRAFTED Quite a bit of undrafted's here with 4 of my final 5 picks being guys who didn't get chosen. Terrance Toliver not being drafted is terrible, he has 4th-5th round talent. Value wise, I should have taken Pettis when I had the chance as I was about to but I dont like the fit for BUF under these circumstances....Carmichael went a round higher which is nice. Heyward likewise albeit only 2 picks ahead of where he was drafted here...Same goes for Cam Newton who went 2 picks higher than in our draft. Stocker went around the area he should have, even though I would have taken him in mid-late round 3. Very happy to get Kelvin Sheppard exactly where he got drafted and with the right team...got some questions about that being kind of a reach but I read alot of stuff that made it seem like Gailey and the staff loved Sheppard and would take him in round 3. DETROIT LIONS, BakerMaker Rd 1 - Cameron Jordan, DL, California- ROUND 1 to NO Rd 2 - Stefen Wisniewski, OG/C, Penn St- ROUND 2 to OAK Rd 3 - Brandon Burton, CB, Utah- ROUND 5 to MIN Rd 4 - K.J. Wright, OLB, Miss St- ROUND 4 to SEA Rd 5 - Delone Carter, RB, Syracuse- ROUND 4 to IND Rd 6 - Derek Newton, OT, Arkansas St - UNDRAFTED Dont know why Jordan fell towards the later part of round 1......Burton falling to round 5 made not a whole lot of sense either as he became a steal for MIN at this point. Carter went 1 round higher and Newton got undrafted......................Not a great Lions draft value wise. 2 guys fell when they really should not have.
