Well make that 19 picks from the first 3 rounds of the official mock still waiting for their names to be called. 2.12 Jabrill Cox - LB - LSU 2.30 Stone Forsythe - OT - Florida 3.6 Daviyon Nixon - DT - Iowa 3.11 Brevin Jordan - TE - Miami 3.16 Trey Smith - G - Tennessee 3.17 Jamar Johnson - S - Indiana 3.20 Rodarius Williams - CB - Oklahoma St 3.21 Jaylen Twyman - DT - Pittsburgh 3.22 Kenneth Gainwell - RB - Memphis 3.23 Shaun Wade - CB - Ohio State 3.25 Dylan Moses - LB - Alabama 3.27 Amon-Ra St. Brown - WR - USC 3.28 Trill Williams - CB - Syracuse 3.29 Tylan Wallace - WR - Oklahoma St 3.31 Marlon Tuipulotu - DT - USC 3.35 Marvin Wilson - DT - FSU 3.36 Hamsah Nasirildeen - S - FSU 3.38 Chris Rumph II - Edge - Duke 3.40 Michael Carter - RB - UNC
Tylan Wallace Daviyon Nixon Brevin Jordan Marvin Wilson 4 Most shocking to me. I'd consider any of them in the 3rd easily. Wallace or Nixon in the 2nd honestly.
Cox Nixon Wallace For me. After that I'm not shocked. Most of them were mostly back half of the 3rd guys after all.
I'm biased as a Miami fan, but I thought he was a top 3 TE. He was good when Miami's offense was bad, and unstoppable when it was good. He's not a slouch receiver. Miami still churns out TE's, even through the rough years, and I figured he'd be the next one... I hope there's not red flags we're unaware of.
I'm personally not as shocked. I almost put McKitty 5th at TE in TD's challenge over Jordan but I let the consensus get to me. Would have aced the category too.

Now that Day Two is over, I'm finally able to break away from work and check out what's been happening. I was going to try to get in on the Draft Challenge this year, but unfortunately a work crunch got in the way. I'm obviously disappointed that Atlanta didn't trade down from #4, but at least they didn't take a QB there. Kyle Pitts is the player that I would have taken in the mock if I had not been able to trade down. It's not quite last year's surreal output, but 18 of the top 50 picks were from the SEC (compared to 20 last year). The first three rounds are making me feel like I didn't screw up in the GMO or the official mock. My first three picks in the official mock went pretty close to those same places in the real thing, and I had a half round riser in Kendrick Green. In the GMO, my second round pick (Zaven Collins) went mid first and two of my fifth rounders went with consecutive picks in the third. Just curious... @Tim - what was the reasoning behind naming Jevon Holland as a faller when he was taken at #40 in the mock? You had mocked him yourself to go at #29, tagged him as best safety in the draft class and said he'd likely be top five even at CB. It seemed really odd that you would then think going at #40 made him the most overrated player in round two. Day three should be crazy. I'm expecting a bunch of our UDFAs and ignored players to get picked and our picked players to go undrafted. Yeah, I know it happens every year, but I mean I think there will be a whole lot more of them this year. There's still a lot of talk that Atlanta will trade Julio Jones. I don't know if Atlanta would do it, but the Teddy Bridgewater trade shows it might be possible - after June 1. The key is that the trade would be contingent upon him signing a new deal with his new team. The new team would spread out the cap hit by replacing most of his 2021 salary (currently fully guaranteed) with signing bonus. Doing the trade after June 1 would leave Atlanta with 15.3 million extra cap space now - but a 15.5 million dead money hit in 2022. But the plus side is that they'd be saving $11.5 million from his 2022 base salary, and the current rules allow them to roll over whatever they don't use from the 15.3 million they would save this year. If they held themselves to spending less than 11.3 million out of that 15.3 million, they'd come out ahead on the cap in 2022. So... depending on what the trade offer is, it might very well be worth it - especially with Kyle Pitts joining Calvin Ridley and Russell Gage in the passing attack this year.
Hey @LAOJoe - for my "new" build, I'm overhauling one of these: https://www.newegg.com/asus-m2npv-vm/p/N82E16813131014 The reviews from NewEgg start in June 2006, so this model of board is coming up on 15 years old ! The beauty of this particular board is that Asus released a beta BIOS for it that gave it AM2+ CPU support. With that BIOS, it can run 4-core Phenom II processors or some of the faster 2- or 3-core Athlon II's. So... 4-core, 3.0 gHz CPU, 8 gig RAM, USB3 support (via the x1 card slot), 4 SATA ports on board and potentially 4 more through a PCI card. Not bad at all when you realize it's a freaking 2006 motherboard.
That is surprisingly good support and you can play some really bad quality minecraft on it, heck you could build a better computer in minecraft
The other pretty wild thing about this particular mobo... It has a component video header on the board (and I have the output connector), and it also has native 24-bit audio. Even if you don't add a separate video card (it does have a PCI-E slot) you can still use it as a really good video streaming / home theater box. So I can see the bad quality Minecraft in high quality video on a big screen TV ! I'm thinking about using it with musical instrument software in addition to experimenting with it for home theater.
Eight quarterbacks drafted in first three rounds, most in common draft era Eight quarterbacks have been selected so far in the 2021 NFL draft, the most through three rounds since the NFL began the “common draft” era in 1967. Friday night saw three quarterbacks selected, when Kyle Trask went to Tampa Bay at the end of the second round and Kellen Mond went to Minnesota and Davis Mills went to Houston with back-to-back picks early in the third round. The first round saw quarterbacks Trevor Lawrence, Zach Wilson and Trey Lance go 1-2-3, Justin Fields go 11th and Mac Jones go 15th. Among the quarterbacks still available on Day 3 are Notre Dame’s Ian Book, Texas’s Sam Ehlinger, Arkansas’ Feleipe Franks and Georgia’s Jamie Newman. NBC ________ _______________ Seems to show the desperation at that position for a lot of teams. Thanks to Mahomes, Brady, Wilson, Rodgers and throw in a Joe Burrow and Kyler Murray too. 30+ teams and only a handfull of elite QB's... plenty of demand, short on supply.
Combination of perceived draft stock and Vegas odds. I try to separate my personal views/rankings from what the landscape might actually be. And I obviously don’t feel he’s the most overrated player in that round. I’m just looking to score a couple points in a draft game.
Quite the opposite, after staying up till 1:00am and getting up for work at 4:45 am, I crashed and burned, missing our 3rd round pick. Oh well, I'm not as excited about that pick as I was JOK, but the speed is MUCH needed and I AM excited to see if he can actually catch the ball. If he gives them a consistent deep threat, this could be a great draft for the Browns.
Just a heads up Willie. This pick belongs to Cleveland now. Acquired in the trade yesterday with Panthers.
