You might like this one more, though I don't think any of those 3rd-day guys will be there anywhere near that late. [Reply]
I was inspired to run my first real "trying" attempt at a mock draft today because I started kicking around the idea of trading back from 32 with the goal of targeting TreyVeyon Henderson in a better range.
Here's where I landed:
2.50 - TreVeyon Henderson, RB, Ohio State (traded back to 42 and again to 50. Tried to use the Rich Hill trade chart for compensation)
2.64 - Deone Walker, DT, Kentucky
3.66 - Andrew Mukaba, DB, Texas
3.96 - Dylan Fairchild, G, Georgia
4.109 - Lander Barton, LB, Utah
4.133 - Theo Wease, Jr., WR, Missouri
4.137 - Oronde Gadsen II, TE, Syracuse
7.256 - Johnny Walker Jr., DE, Missouri
OK, homer draft.
I moved back to 42 and Henderson was still the #3 back on the board, so I moved again to 50 and still got him. I like Walker as a massive human with huge upside. Mukaba is fast and athletic and good in coverage and versatile. Seems like a Chiefs DB to me. Fairchild lacks a bunch of starting experience but is a good G prospect. Barton is a coverage backer.
Wease is "my" draft guy. I think the guy is going to be a really good NFL player, and I want it to be a value for MY team.
Gadsen is a project TE but could pay off huge. Walker certainly won't be there in the 7th, but if he was you'd run to the podium with that pick.
With the Chiefs down a few picks, this might be a nice year to trade back and add some more. Especially since the 20-60 range of the draft seems destined to be graded pretty similarly. [Reply]
I certainly don't have the knowledge of Mizzou football that you do, duncan, but am I wrong in feeling both Theo Wease and Johnny Walker have a future as solid contributors on Sunday? Maybe not Pro Bowlers, but guys that know their roles, get it done, and help contribute to wins? [Reply]

I don't think you're wrong at all.
I could see Wease surprisingly being a star NFL WR, actually. He has the athletic profile. Can do everything. [Reply]

Wease is going to be real good. He actually was more consistent than burden this year. Walker has all world talent with a ten cent head but in the seventh that’s my pick too. [Reply]
31: DT Kenneth Grant - Michigan
63: CB Trey Amos - Mississippi
66: LT Wyatt Milnum - West Virginia
95: WR Xavier Restrepo - Miami
132: RB Ollie Gordon II - Oklahoma State
256: TE Luke Lachey - Iowa
Use our top two picks to add young cheats playmakers on the defense. These picks not add talent at premium defensive positions, but they make our stars on the defense even better. Want to get the most out of Jones in the next two-3 years, but a guy like Grant next to him. Want to help McDuffie, go pair him with a boundry corner. How do you manage the cap, you can spend money on Jones and McDuffie when you balance out the books with cheap contracts at the same position group for the length of those contract. Veach is great at this BTW.
Then the focus needs to change to the offense. I'd love a safety, LB, edge guy, but the offense needs attention, and when you are paying Mahomes, you need cheap young talent.
I get that Milnum isn't Joe Alt, but the dude is a legit pass blocking LT, and if he's there I'm going to take him over a running back like Henderson or Johnson and I'd feel great about it.
At 95 the running backs I'd love to have are gone, but adding a guy like Restrepo to pair wit Rice and Worthy would be fun. When and if Kelce leaves, I want to find Pat his own Wes Welker/Julian Edelman.
Running back is deep in this draft, so I think its important not to freak out. Ollie Gordon is a talented back that you can get for a discount because he didn't live up to the hype this season, but the talent is there.
Not sure Lachey would be there at the end of the draft, but if he is I'd be all over it. He's been in QB hell at Iowa, at this point in the draft he's worth a flier here. [Reply]
