Ground rules for this mock draft...

 -- 4pts pass TD, PPR, no TE bonuses...no bonus scoring at all

 -- Travis Hunter is a WR only scorer

 

 

 

Pick      Position             Name

1.01      RB         Ashton Jeanty, LV

1.02      RB         Omarion Hampton, LAC

1.03      WR       Tetairoa McMillan, CAR

My love child from this draft. Probably the last time I’ll get a chance at him in this series.

 

1.04      RB         TreVeyon Henderson, NE

1.05      RB         Quinshon Judkins, CLE

1.06      WR        Travis Hunter, JAC

1.07      WR        Emeka Egbuka, TB

1.08      TE          Colston Loveland, CHI

1.09      RB         RJ Harvey, DEN

1.10      RB         Kaleb Johnson, PIT

1.11      TE          Tyler Warren, IND

1.12      WR        Matthew Golden, GB

---------------------------------------------

2.01      WR        Luther Burden III, CHI

2.02      QB        Cameron Ward, TEN

2.03      RB         Jaydon Blue, DAL

I really am not liking the current status of the 2nd-round. Not that I don’t like or love the talented WRs we like -- Harris, Higgins, K. Williams...but I don’t HAVE to have them, or they aren’t raging deals...I am used to finding instant successes in the early 2nd-round, so this feels weird that all ‘my guys’ to choose from are more a year or two from now guys.

So, we’re just gonna have to ‘hit it in the fairway’ and just make the best choice for a given scenario...Higgins if I have Nico, Harris if I have Ladd, Kyle Williams if I need WR help right away (and that’s not even a sure thing yet), or maybe Jaydon Blue if I wanna connect him with Mafah later.

...and that’s what I’m gonna do...take Blue early (he’ll be gone with my next pick) and hook him with Mafah, and then hope one of the is ‘the guy’...then the other would be a handcuff, I guess, if one of them pops to the lead guy.

 

2.04      RB         Cam Skattebo, NYG

2.05      WR        Jayden Higgins, HOU

2.06      WR        Tre Harris, LAC

2.10      QB        Jaxson Dart, NYG

2.11      RB         Devin Neal, NO

2.12      QB        Tyler Shough, NO

---------------------------------------------

3.01      WR        Kyle Williams, NE

3.02      WR        Jalen Royals, KC

3.03      TE          Elijah Arroyo, SEA

Arroyo is here in the 3rd, so an easy choice.

 

3.04      RB         Jordan James, SF

3.05      TE          Terrance Ferguson, LAR

3.06      TE          Mason Taylor, NYJ

3.09      RB         Jarquez Hunter, LAR

3.10      RB         DJ Giddens, IND

3.11      WR        Elic Ayomanor, TEN

3.12      TE          Harold Fannin Jr., CLE

---------------------------------------------

4.01      RB         Damien Martinez, SEA

4.02      RB         Brashard Smith, KC

4.03      WR       Savion Williams, GB

This is a no man’s land where I’m gonna keep trying to see if Savion Williams is a dual-threat FF producer immediately or eventually.

 

4.04      WR        Pat Bryant, DEN

4.05      RB         Ollie Gordon II, MIA

4.06      RB         Trevor Etienne, CAR

4.07      WR        Jaylin Lane, WAS

4.08      WR        Tory Horton, SEA

4.09      RB         Tahj Brooks, CIN

4.10      WR        Isaac TeSlaa, DET

4.11      WR        Tai Felton, MIN

4.12      RB         Woody Marks, HOU

---------------------------------------------

5.01      WR        Dont'e Thornton Jr., LV

5.02      WR        Tez Johnson, TB

5.03      QB        Shedeur Sanders, CLE (aka RB Phil Mafah, DAL)

As always, I take someone not Mafah, to boost their ADP in the mock platform’s system...but really it’s Mafah I’m taking. I take Shedeur Sanders here just to keep his ADP pumped.

 

5.04      QB        Dillon Gabriel, CLE

5.05      RB         LeQuint Allen Jr., JAC

5.06      RB         Kyle Monangai, CHI

5.07      TE          Gunnar Helm, TEN

5.08      QB        Will Howard, PIT

5.09      RB         Jacory Croskey-Merritt, WAS

5.10      TE          Oronde Gadsden II, LAC

5.12      WR        Arian Smith, NYJ
