Completely, Totally, Absurdly Wrong Final Mock Draft

The NFL draft begins on Thursday night.

Here is my final full first round mock of the year. (I will probably do one more 49ers mock on Thursday)

The computer offered lots of trades, which seemed like a fun twist, so I accepted all of the trades that were at least 120% of draft value.

The 49ers did exactly what you wanted and traded back with some dumb team that offered them way too much.

Thanks Raiders! They got a good player but I wouldn’t trade up for the third best safety.

Most of the trade-ups seemed pretty dumb, but that just speaks to the accuracy of this simulator.

I’ll try my hand at a full 1st round draft later.

It's fun but tough.

I usually do a few of these but with the first pick I didn’t think about it.

It's more fun to just do 49ers mocks but I figured one more full first round mock before the draft. Maybe I will do a hate mock where I screw up the first round picks of all the teams I hate.

Rams drafting a wide receiver? Checks out

I think so. Adams getting older and they probably pay Puka but who knows.

I like the Texans' pick.... It might be a little early, but due to the talent falloff after the top 10 or so, it makes sense. KC to Cleveland is interesting, and I could see Cleveland doing it, but I feel like they could go twice on the O-line, given how they gotta keep whoever they put at QB alive.

Plus I hate seeing my A&M players go to Cleveland to die.... I'd rather see KC in Buffalo or New England with a good QB.

They could double up on OT but they need an offensive threat too. Wasn't sure where to go there.

As for the Texans. I know they are trying to improve the line for Stroud so I figured Tackle or guard and a lot of tackles were already off the board. They run a similar scheme to the 49ers and Bisontis is a good scheme fit for 49ers so I thought he would work well with the Texans.
