This is pretty cool. It allows you to make draft picks and simulates what other teams will pick. Unfortunately it doesn't allow trade ups or anything like that but I did a draft for the Miami Dolphins. These are the guys I picked according to who was left in the simulation.

That would shore up many positions of need. Of course, re-signing Peyton Hillis would be one of my other off-season priorities. Well, it's nice to dream anyway.

as a side note, QB Jordan Lynch (arguably the best player in college football this year) was rated as the #428 overall player in the draft and was not selected. similarly, WR Alex Amidon (arguably the best wide receiver in the ACC for the past two seasons AND in Boston College history) was rated the #432 player and also went unchosen. i would, of course, make them a priority free agent signing (and likely convert Lynch to running back). RB Tyler Gaffney also went un-drafted as the #214 rated player.

Blake Bortles went #1 overall.

Ridiculous if Gaffney and Lynch aren't drafted but Gaffney is rated a 5 th rounder right now even though it says he is the 5th ranked RB. He bulked up since his early years. 6 ft and 226 pounds. If he falls past the 3rd it might be better to be an udfa and decide where he gets to go. I think he should cut down to around 220 and try to go sub 4.5 which he is capable of.

I like how all 3 of us "played GM" and selected 7 rounds of entirely different White players without even 1 repeat. I think if this were reality, we would all have successful drafts despite ESPN pundits giving us D or F draft grades. There really is alot of talent in each round, if your simply willing to look for it. I think a brave GM could turn around the worst franchise in 1 or 2 years tops if he did some real scouting and drafted majority White players coupled with signing passed over or underrated White free agents. Basically, find a good quarterback and mimic the Patriots. You'd be a playoff team every year with the high bust rate of the affletes other teams draft and sign.
