2021 Mock Draft Simulators


Recommended Posts

Dusting off some scenarios on The Draft Network now that we are through the main part of the FA. Hoping they still sign Turner, but we know enough now to see a few things. With Reiff in fold, some pressure off of #5 overall again.

 

Here's first scenario - the round 1 tradedown. Chase and Sewell were taken at 3 and 4 just ahead of the Bengals, so I traded back, first to 8 and then to 12 to amass a bunch of picks and ended up with this:

 

Round 1 Pick 12 overall -- Rashawn Slater, OT/G, Northwestern

Round 2 Pick 38 overall -- Landon Dickerson, IOL, Alabama

Round 3 Pick 69 overall -- Tommy Togai, IDL, tOSU

Round 3 Pick 73 overall (via trade down) -- Dyami Brown, WR, North Carolina

Round 3 102 overall  (via trade down) --- Ben Cleveland, IOL, Georgia

Round 4 Pick 111 overall --- Patrick Jones, Edge, Pitt

Round 4 Pick 113 overall (via trade down) --- Israel Mukuamo, CB, South Carolina

Round 4 Pick 117 overall (via trade down) --- Janarius Robinson, Edge, Florida State

Round 5 Pick 149 overall --- Caden Sterns, S, Texas

Round 5 Pick 155 overall (via trade down) --- Anthony Schwartz, WR, Auburn

Round 6 Pick 190 overall --- Shi Smith, WR, South Carolina (note: w/ Erickson gone -an opening for back-up slot WR)

Round 6 Pick 202 overall --- Ihmir Smith-Marsette, WR, Iowa

Round 7 Pick 235 overall -- Tay Gowan, CB, UCF

Again using Draft Network, here's one where Chase and Sewell were off the board and I turned down a lot of offers to trade back and stayed put with what I deem to be best player available at 5:

 

Round 1 Pick 5 overall --- Kyle Pitts, TE, Florida

Round 2 Pick 38 overall --- Liam Eichenberg, T, Notre Dame

Round 3 Pick 69 overall --- Jay Tufule, IDL, USC

Round 4 Pick 111 overall --- Ben Cleveland, IOL, Georgia

Round 5 Pick 149 overall --- Rashad Weaver, Edge, Pitt

Round 6 Pick 190 overall --- Josh Imatorbhebhe, WR, Illinois

Round 6 Pick 202 overall ---- Ihmir Smith-Marsette, WR, Iowa

Round 7 Pick 235 overall --- Marco Wilson, CB, Florida

 

By the way, TDN has the trade for Finley factored in, so the two picks in 6th were nice to play with as opposed to two picks in the 7th. I still don't get why Houston did this, but, awesome.

Because now he doesn’t need to start at tackle right away. He can be developed for a year, or play guard at first. Without Reiff he needed to be a day 1 starter at tackle. 

True ..

Instead of taking what many to perceive as the next outstanding OT in the league they say we dont need him now at 1..

Unbelievable to me but thats the best thing about this board..

Everyone brings their opinion to the table..

I have my thoughts but I learn  from others views..

I learn nothing from my own..😎

I hope not. They can get quality candidates to compete to kick from UDFA. 

 

I agree with this but even more in-context - it's the Bengals, and after the Jake Elliot debacle maybe the Bengals should avoid picking kickers unless they somehow gain like 3 more picks.  They can't afford to cut another drafted kicker, especially if they choose to keep the retreads already on the roster (who end up failing like you expected them to in the first place).

First of all, I’m still not convinced Sewell makes it to 5 and he’s the only one I’d take at 5. Secondly there are metrics guys that would tell you an elite WR has a bigger impact on the game than elite tackle.

Comes down to what a team thinks would help them more..

I wont be down if they select Chase or Pitts if Sewell is gone..

The metrics would indicate Miami has greater value in Chase than Sewell especially since they have 

2 young tackles in place..

I’d love to get Wilson in the 4th.  He’s got a TON of talent, just never really put it together at FSU.  Could be a steal.  We pick so high in the 3rd, I don’t want to reach for him there, but I think in the 4th it’s a steal.

5 round mock, feel free to point and laugh. Wanted to  fix the gutters trenches and didn't do too bad. Had to draft Meinerz cuz you just gotta love the kid (tho from what I've been hearing he might not make it out of the 2nd).

A seventh is usually worth little more than a practice squad body (if you're luck).  One exception could be a PK, which  is how I'd spend this year if there's someone they really like (Jose Borregales from The U?).

I like it other than the TE. I really hope they don't draft one unless it is Pitts at 5. I've done a bunch otherwise very similar. 

If they were to trade down and pick up an extra 3rd, I wouldn't mind using one on Brevin Jordan from Miami.

With Uzi coming back from injury and Sample still developing I figured we should pick one up in the later rounds. I honestly hope Chase is gone by the time we pick so Mikey won't be tempted  to draft him. IMHO he's a luxury pick we can't afford and hte only reason I took one in round 2 was because I had a spare pick lying around and no one else was available I wanted.
