I can never tell if I'm supposed to play for the high score or attempt something remotely realistic....? 

Plus there's always On The Clock's sim... no trading, but you can select among a couple prospect rankings in the set up to their draft.

https://fanspeak.com/ontheclock/

Here's my first effort with it using DraftTek's rankings...

17: R1P17 LB DEVIN WHITE (LSU) - More and more I'm wanting this IMPACT MLB...

49: R2P17 WR N'KEAL HARRY (ARIZONA STATE) - 6'3 213 and runs in the 4.5's... great wingspan with a resume of spectacular catches...

80: R3P16 CB JULIAN LOVE (NOTRE DAME) - tad undersized at 5'11, but skilled

94: R3P30 TE T.J. HOCKENSON (IOWA) - a blocking TE who can catch...

119: R4P17 EDGE D'ANDRE WALKER (GEORGIA) - situational, pass-rush DE with OLB possibilities...

145: R5P6 WR HUNTER RENFROW (CLEMSON) - true possession WR... if he can stay healthy...

156: R5P17 LB TERRILL HANKS (NEW MEXICO STATE) - tall (6'2) rangy OLB...

170: R5P31 RB MIKE WEBER (OHIO STATE) - nice all-purpose RB...

191: R6P16 G ROSS PIERSCHBACHER (ALABAMA) - BAMA's pulling Center and another swingman inside for us...

223: R7P7 CB ISAIAH JOHNSON JR. (HOUSTON) - per drafttek I reached for this tall CB that I am liking more and more...

245: R7P29 OT TYTUS HOWARD (ALABAMA STATE) - another reach, but a good enough prospect to not want to compete in UDFA market for him especially as I was shut out repeatedly from mmore well known prospects as teams reached more than I was willing to... 6'5, 322 and runs in low 5's...

 

TEAM DRAFT ASSESSMENT

DL NONE DRAFTED --- WRKEAL HARRY  --- LBDEVIN WHITE --- S NONE DRAFTED --- CBJULIAN LOVE  --- QB NONE DRAFTED

Sometimes you get lucky too, like Devin White @ #19 for Tour. Won't be there even if we keep our current spot @ #17. At this point I'm for moving up because I see him as the next great ILB who has All-Pro written all over him. He's got it all.

Willing to do same, Ag... He's the impact MLB we need, IMO. But he may well fall to us which is not a knock on him, but more a recognition of the strength of other positions and team needs, e.g., a couple QBs sneaking into the top ten.

Thought I would try a non Browns one .....

Something I do as well usually in the role of our AFCN rivals. One of the interesting aspects of doing this is seeing what the sim does with the Browns picks.

[Gunz41]

The crazy thing, in that one that I posted, I had been reserved to just draft without trades, so I just skipped right to Browns pick. I was SHOCKED, the pick before was Nick Bosa. So had I not skipped I could have gotten him at #16. 

[Tour2ma]

lol... I always go team by team to our first pick... and a few past it.

Then in fives thru rounds 2 and 3.

Then "skip to"...

I usually do to, but didnt want to waste a lot of time. That could have been a legendary draft lol maybe it's a sign Bosa falls that far lol

[SD_Tom]

I don't even really care now. They finally drafted THE GUY at QB. Looks like they also did that at RB & CB too. Hue is finally gone, and I trust Dorsey will make some more great decisions and this team will be primed to win a lot of games.

... but you got a B+ player in the mix and that kills your score.

Great idea  to practice the teams you rep in our Mock. Be sure to look at who the sim picked for us... it'll make you feel better about the Browns' drafts you do.

Round 1 Pick 17: White, Devin, ILB/OLB, LSU (A)d

Totally unrealistic. He'll be gone long before that. The program needs to be adjusted for Combine performances. There were several players including him whose draft position went way up.

[gumby73]

Devin White is consistantly in the top 8 if nobody reaches at 2 QB's..top 10 if they do..get the feeling this is why the Steelers wanted AB in Buffalo & their pick..  

[darren15]

Would you give up next years 1 and this years 2 for this first round ?

Define "gone long"...

They continually adjust "rankings" based upon many factors.

Personally I think the QB scramble will emerge and push really good players down Day 1. I think White's easily a top ten talent, but think he has a great chance of being pushed out of the top ten.

I will bet right now he never makes it past Cincy @  #11 unless someone moves ahead of them to take him.

In a word... no.

DT is very, very deep. IMO Oliver and Simmons are both in the Williams mold... and Wilkens is only a step slower. So I don't have to spend as much to move into the bottom half of the 1st for them.

There are even some very good Day 2 DT prospects.

And I'll bet your bet would involve "rum".

[Tour2ma]

Did some practice runs for my Board Mock teams, DAL and HOU, using OTC's sim. Always interesting to see who the sim tabs for us and OTC makes it easy to check.

Here's the 1st result... Note: that Devin White went in top 5.

And here's the 2nd result. Note: White fell to us, but we passed on him and the next team up ran to the table where picks are turned in...
