This sounds like it might be fun. I'm open to trying it. I'll take an unclaimed team if one is available. If no one else wants it, I have a slight preference for the Patriots. Anderson Koopa fucked around with this message at 21:55 on Mar 27, 2024 |

I posted in the AFC East thread looking for wisdom. EDIT: The Patriots Offense is so bad that QB, OT, or WR would have been a defensible selection. The Patriots have two bridge QBs on the roster already and I wasn't one hundred percent convinced that Drake Maye was going to be the answer. That left OL or WR as the choice. I went with MHJ because I had more hope of finding OL later. I liked MHJ's size and his ability to slot in from day one. Anderson Koopa fucked around with this message at 14:55 on Apr 1, 2024 |

trevorreznik posted:I was worried it would happen because I really wanted Odunze at 9. But when the Pats went WR the dominoes fell fast Yeah, in a real world scenario trade back would have probably been the best option. The Pats offense has so many holes that we need to plug as many of them as we can. Plus Drake Maye is described as having: prototypical size, ability to make any throw, and questionable decision making. That reminded me a bit of Zach Wilson and I didn't want to repeat that experiment.

Anyone have last year's goon mock draft? I'm kind of curious how accurate we will be as a collective.

I picked a big boy who is 6'4" and 366 pounds and runs a 5.2 in the 40 yard dash. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QNGuS7Xrf7I Edit: If I was the actual GM, I would probably trade back here. The Patriots need a CB, OT, QB, TE, and a RB. I didn't love any CB or QB enough to go with that position here. I felt like it was too early to start drafting TEs and RBs. The Patriots have an ok DL already, but given the number of WRs, CBs, OTs, and QBs that had been picked already, I wanted to get my hands on a DT to help out on early downs.

Sweat seems cool and good though as long as he can keep his playing weight under like, 400

My 2nd round pick just got arrested for DWI. I should have left him on the board, I could have grabbed him later.

Darth Brooks posted:The Vikings have two picks in the first round and then nothing in the second and third. It really is all about who they get at the top of the draft. I think I saw that the Jets and Broncos also don't have a second round pick. Do you think the Vikings will trade back to get more picks?

Drafting for the Patriots this year has been easy / hard. They have so many needs that I could literally pick anyone. We are going bargain bin / project QB for the foreseeable future. I never buy the argument that a particular QB class is weak or strong, next year they will be coming up with excuses why these QBs are fliers. I picked Brooks here because I don't want to pay Rhamondre Stevenson an extension necessarily. Tight End and Tackle are still a need, but when a highly projected RB is available, I have to grab them. If this was real life I would probably be trading back a lot more, but I have to pick someone.

I can see why historically the Goon draft was stopped after the 3rd round. By the time you get to the bottom half of the draft it is a lot of random players left.

Darth Brooks posted:It's funny to think that all those "random players" have complete scouting reports on most of the NFL teams, all probably saying wildly different things. I've heard a lot of special teams players gets picked around here. I think I might be on the clock? The team ahead of me hasn't picked yet.

So this is my thought process about why I made all of the picks that I did. Thank you to ShakeZula for organizing the Goon draft. 1. (3rd overall) - Marvin Harrison Jr, WR OSU. The Patriots need receiver help, their best receiver is Kendrick Bourne who is coming off of an ACL tear. Hopefully he can return to form. The other WRs have been mostly underwhelming and haven't had a lot of experience. The best one is probably DeMario Douglas. I was scared that Maye would bust in this spot and I didn't think highly enough of McCarthy, Nix, or Penix to go for them here. If I was forced to pick a QB, I liked Penix the best out of this class. I just didn't want to burn a 3rd overall pick on him. 2. (34rd overall) - T'Vondre Sweat, DT Texas. I liked his upside as a possible two gapping nose tackle that is able to control the line of scrimmage and clean things up for the other defensive players. I also picked him because defensive line hadn't really been picked over yet. This was probably a bit of a reach. 3. (68 overall) - Jonathan Brooks, RB Texas. No RBs had been picked yet, I went with one of the more highly rated ones. The Patriots have some RBs, but the prospect of an exciting rookie to help open things up for the offense was too much to pass on. 4. (103 overall) - Joe Milton III, QB Tennessee. He's tall, strong, fast, and has a good arm. He is going to ride the bench year 1 and get a year to develop / acclimate to the NFL. Year 2 he's our starter and we see what we get out of him. Assuming he is successful, we found our QB of the future here. If he isn't good enough to make it as a QB in the NFL he has some athleticism that we can transition him to a different role for years 3 and 4. It's a fourth round pick, so if it doesn't work out it won't set the franchise back too far. Plus look at this spider chart!  Anderson Koopa fucked around with this message at 01:12 on Apr 21, 2024 |

Docjowles posted:One thing I would have trouble with in the real life draft is NE hitting the fourth round without taking a tackle. Their LT situation is rear end despite multiple failed swings at fixing it. They gotta keep trying. Sweat and Brooks feel like luxury picks a team in their position can't afford That is true and I was banking on the Patriots hitting on a tackle in the later rounds. If you told me tackle was a priority, I would have gone for that early and then gone WR. Sweat was a vanity pick who reminded me a lot of Vince Wilfork. My favoritw of the OTs was picked right before my 3rd round pick. I picked QB late because I believe that the team needs some additional pieces before a QB would help them.

Play posted:It's somewhat fun to compare how your picks turned out compared to how the actual draft went. Not in terms of which team but in terms of position. Personally I lost about 11 spots by taking Nate Wiggins at 19, but then gained them all back and then some by taking Legette at 52 when he actually went 32. Therefore I am plus 9. I picked MHJ with the 3rd overall pick and he went 4th. I picked T'Vondre Sweat with the 34th pick and he went 38th. My next pick was Jonathan Brooks at #68. He was taken with pick #46. My 4th round pick was Joe Milton, I have a feeling that I reached here but overall a solid class. If nothing else it makes me feel better about my attempt to go BPA.
