They updated their big board and it looks a little more realistic

I love using the fanspeak draft, though I hate when teams take your player when you know they wouldn't take them in real life.

Too bad Free Agency can't work like fanspeaks manage the cap tool:

 

SIGNED PLAYERS
Name Position Cap Hit Mark Ingram RB 2,525,000 Randall Cobb WR 7,100,000 Brandon Tate WR 1,200,000 Orlando Franklin G 4,125,000 Ndamukong Suh DT 8,000,000 Devin McCourty S 3,850,000 Bryan Bulaga T 4,100,000 Bruce Carter OLB 1,320,000 Byron Maxwell CB 3,570,000 Rodney Hudson C 3,625,000 Jordan Cameron TE 4,220,000 Jerry Hughes DE 4,225,000

 

Remaining Cap Space: 20 million

 

Heck, we should win the super bowl after an offseason like this. Too bad we won't come anywhere close to this.

Funchess in round four ?!!

Quote:Funchess in round four ?!!

When I selected him, it was the 4th round. I was debating on him or a better OT in the 4th. Figured why not get more people who were once mocked in the first or early second from earlier this season.

The fanspeak board can be flawed at times. I recently picked Todd Gurley in the 5th round.

My latest swag at it utilizing the "combination" player rankings.

<p style="margin-left:40px;">36: R2P4 - DE OWAMAGBE ODIGHIZUWA - UCLA


<p style="margin-left:40px;">67: R3P3 - RB JAY AJAYI - BOISE STATE


<p style="margin-left:40px;">100: R4P4 - OT DARYL WILLIAMS - OKLAHOMA


<p style="margin-left:40px;">131: R5P3 - DE DAVIS TULL – OT CHATTANOOGA


<p style="margin-left:40px;">164: R6P4 - CB BYRON JONES - CONNECTICUT


<p style="margin-left:40px;">195: R7P3 - TE BLAKE BELL - OKLAHOMA


<p style="margin-left:40px;"> 

My impressions from this haul is that I made the LB and DL positions better, specifically in the area of pass rusher in the forms of Beasley and Owa. I got a quality rotation RB that can do most anything on a football field with Ajayi, I added depth and competition at Right Tackle, even if I didn't get a starter. And at the very least I got three Special Teams starters with Tull, Jones, and Bell.

 

Thoughts?

I just tried three drafts, using three different scouting sources, and all three picked Mariota first overall to TB.

 

I'll try again later after they've updated.  That's just garbage.

I've seen times where both Winston and Mariota are still on the board at our pick. The tool is meant more for fun than to be taken seriously.

Went with draftek.

The good:
We've been without a WR1 since Jimmy retired.  WR1 would be sewn up for years with Cooper, barring injury.  Too many are ignoring this opportunity, IMO.  (Because we've been without so long?)
 
The bad:
Position changes for most in rounds 3 and later.
 
I think Funchess would thrive as a TE in the NFL.  Don't know if he'd realistically be there that late.
 
Shaw and Rowe are very intriguing prospects as safeties.
 
Grissom and Valles are more raw, but could make good OTTO and LEO projects, respectively.

Would rather have White if we are looking for a WR1...assuming its Williams//Winston 1//2

 

White looks like the more premier WR1 but you cant go wrong either way I just like the bigger more physical types on the outside.

 

 

but both scenarios look good:

 

White//Robinson as 1/2 with Lee working the slot

 

or

 

Robinson as the 1 with Cooper//Lee taking the Slot//Off scrimmage WR.

Ok, we've all had a go at our "complete draft" now.


Let's change the rules !


What happens if we get Cobb, Thomas and a right tackle in Free Agency (let's assume we miss out on McCourtey, because he re-signs with the ball-deflaters)


How does that change your choices ?


Are you still picking a WR in the first round, when you have Cobb and maybe Blackmon on your books ?


And is anyone taking Maxx when we have Julius ?

Personally, I'm perfectly fine with getting Blake more weapons to succeed even if we somehow managed to sign those three.

I'm went off speculation the rumors of Thomas to us. I also believe we will obtain a starter quality safety, and a Right Tackle.

Eagles give entire draft to the Jaguars for Pick #3 Mariota...

 

Fanspeak only lets you do 4 draft picks in trades so Jags trade Pick #3 for Picks #20 in the 1st/2nd/3rd round and Pick #14 in the 4th.
