I like that you went trade crazy. It's too early in the process to hope for anything close to accuracy, so I like it when mocks explore potential trades/scenarios. Makes it interesting.
Your LAC/NYJ/Alt trade is very possible. I totally understand the mocks that have the Chargers taking Bowers or Nabers at #5, but I have to think Harbaugh is itching to reconstruct that lousy defense. A move down to #10 would be a more reasonable value slot for potential targets like Turner, Arnold, etc.
I like the potential of Guyton and Mims more than Alt, but the Aaron Rodgers signing has created a hostage situation. Every personnel move must now be made with a one-year window mindset. (As a Jets fan, I don't think Rodgers is worth the trouble, but it is what it is.) The Jets will almost certainly value Alt's polish over the upside of Guyton/Mims.
Nit picks: I'll be shocked if Penix goes that high, and seriously doubt Kool-Aid pops off before Arnold. Cool name, but Arnold is the better prospect.
Very well-done and thought out draft. I do see it difficult to pass on MH2 for Rome Odunze. And if Bowers falls that far, that would be surprising. But the draft has plenty of surprises and that's why we love it!
@JJsRams @JJsRams Thanks! I'm not sure why the Rome Odunze selection is showing before Marvin. In my scenario, the Bears trade from 1 to 3 with the Patriots but then trade down again from 3 to 8. Or else they would select Harrison. Bowers is tricky because he could easily go top 5 but would the team get max value out of that pick?That's why I can see him falling similarly to a running back or safety.
