I traded down in the 2nd and picked up an extra 4th. I would like to get an extra 3rd ideally if we actually traded down, but the trades on this site seem to be a bit stingy with what they'll accept.

I would take that draft but would sure like a solid LB in the first. That's cool that you were able to do the trades. I would love to flirt with that but I'm too stingy to pay for premium. [Reply]
Sorry if it's a repost, but PFF removed the paywall from their mock sim. It's awesome. You can set up some initial assumptions for how it works and it gives you the ability to trade up or down throughout.
I like dicking around w/ PFF's mock draft simulator because you can do trades a little easier.
So I just went haywire for giggles:
55: Swift, RB
63: Chinn, S/LB
78: Jonah Jackson, G
79: Willie Gay Jr, LB
96: Troy Pride Jr, CB
119: Kenny Willekes - DE
148: Antonio Gibson, WR
152: Solomon Kindley, G
177: Harrison Bryant, TE
I also got the Jets 2021 1st rounder w/ my first round trade down.
In other words - complete lunacy. But how fun would that draft be? A couple new IOLs, a new RB, a couple new LBs (inside/out), a rotational edge rusher, a backup TE, a gadget WR/RB, a solid CB prospect and an extremely valuable 1st rounder from the Jets.
That draft would be legendary....good or bad. [Reply]
I didn't go heywire but traded down from 2nd to 3rd and picked up a 4th and 7th
32 KC Yetur Gross-Matos ED Penn State
78 KC Akeem Davis-Gaither LB Appalachian State
96 KC Raekwon Davis DI Alabama
119 KC Antonio Gibson RB Memphis
138 KC Reggie Robinson II CB Tulsa
177 KC Saahdiq Charles T LSU
228 KC Quez Watkins WR Southern Miss
I can't fathom Davis-Gaither being there. I have him at 63 but question whether he'll actually require a move up in 2.
I have Raekwon Davis as a Rd 1 guy...
I have Watkins as Rd 4
Used PFF 50/50 rating with teams drafting a little for need, Caring about positional value and Random

I don't think he's a bad fit, I just think he may not be a good player.
He can add some weight and play at 275 in all likelihood. He has the length and probably the functional strength to play a 4-3 DE. But if he develops as you'd expect he profiles more as a LEO than an SDE.
He's a rich man's K-Pass. He has a longer development curve and a lot more bust potential. I wouldn't say fit is the issue - he can play here. But he'd need to change his body a bit and really change his mentality. You draft him in the 1st and you do so recognizing that year 1 is likely a red-shirt year. It wouldn't be the end of the world because we still have Okafor and K-Pass to rotate at SDE in 2020.
But there's a lot of bust potential there.
The guy I really hope someone falls in love with is Chaisson. That's a love-fest I just don't get. If he falls to 32 you almost have to take him because there's a lot of tools there but man I don't have to squint much at all to see Dee Ford 2.0 - a long, frustrating development process that shows flashes but just never works out quite like you'd hope. There's just a ton of 'implosion' potential there.
On the spectrum of 'solid w/ a high floor' to 'high variance and explosive w/ bust potential' you have Epenesa -- Gross-Matos -- Chaisson from one end to the other. [Reply]

Chaisson is from LSU with really good workout numbers in a year that edge rusher isn't exactly popping, he'll probably go in the first 20 picks. [Reply]
Using the PFF one I traded down from 32 for picks 52 and 57.
52) Dantzler CB
57) Deandre Swift RB
63) Jordyn Brooks LB
96) Reakwon Davis DL
4th) Antonio Gibson--prob dont need him because of Swift, but I love him
5th) Hakeem Adeniji OL [Reply]
