*Note*
Depending on which big board and team needs/rankings list you use, some of these players end up falling big time, which in real life probably won't be the case. So take it with a grain of salt, but really it's all for fun.
Enjoy, and post your results in the thread if you wish :-)
Here's my KC draft. (I usually use the board that's most recently updated - today it was the "NFL Mock" board w/ "classic" difficulty level).
If this happened I'd probably wet myself.
1.CB-DeAnder Baker, Georgia
2.WR-Deebo Samuel, S.Carolina
2.LB-Devin Bush, Michigan
3.CB-Trayvon Mullen, Clemson
5.RB-Darrell Henderson, Memphis
6.DE-Charles Omenihu, Texas
6.WR-Hakeen Butler, IowaSt
7.S-Mike Edwards, Kentucky (a Matt House pick) [Reply]

2.9 -- Irv Smith, TE - Ala
2.17 -- Nassir Adderley, FS - Del
2.29 -- Mack Wilson, ILB - Ala
2.31 -- Julian Love, CB - ND
3.28 -- Terry Beckner Jr, DT - Miz
5.29 -- Emanuel Hall, WR - Miz
6.28 -- Rodney Anderson, RB - OU
7.2 -- Jordan Scarlett, RB - Fl
So there - I just won us the next 3 Super Bowls. You're all welcome.
Traded out of the 1st round for a 2nd, 3rd and 4th round pick.
NFL Mock Big Board / User voted team needs / Difficult setting.
I laughed at the Big Board as it unfolded. Could not get a corner worthy of a 1st round pick and got shut out as picks came off the board. Stupid value on some prospects though because the big board is messed up:

Second-according to multiple mocks, yeah, those first four picks are entirely possible.
Third-nobody, not the mocks, not Mel Kiper Jr., or anyone else has any idea how the board will actually fall in April.
But in the meantime, this little simulation is pretty fun.
Oh for sure.
That talent you got with those first four picks are largely within the first 50 picks on most Big Boards though. What a haul that would be. If there is a run on offensive players early, some really great defensive talent would fall, but I still think defense dominates this draft class. [Reply]

yeah. well, if you're a team that already has an offense that's kick-ass then sure. If you don't, and you're looking at The Chiefs, and The Rams, and The Saints...?
and most of the lowly teams have shit offensively. What would you do? I'd be drafting Qb's until I got one, and WR's, and offensive linemen.
So...we'll see. but nobody wants to pay to see a team that can't score. [Reply]

NFL teams are stubborn and slow to change. While emulation will certainly happen, it won't happen all at once.
I mean look at Elway in Denver. He thinks he can beat the Chiefs with defense, a running game, and Joe freaking Flacco. [Reply]
