What is your NFL "Draftpocalypse" Scenario?

Postby cc texan » Tue Apr 25, 2017 3:51 pm

I know we're all excited about top skill position talent landing in their ideal spots and building our imaginary draft boards around it, but what if that doesn't happen? What if all of the rookies end up in muddled and terrible situations, destroying your draft board? What is your draftpocalypse?

I'll take a shot:
1.02 - Jets trade with 49ers for Mitch Trubisky (RIP Mitch)
1.06 - 49ers (from Jets) take Leonard Fournette
1.07 - Chargers take Evan Engram
1.08 - Missing Ted Ginn, Panthers take John Ross
1.12 - Browns take Corey Davis
1.17 - Redskins take Mike Williams
1.21 - Detroit takes Christian McCaffrey

RIP Draft Board.

Mac to the Lions I would personally love.

Not sure why the Chargers would consider Engram at 7? They have Gates and Henry. If anything another WR is needed so they'd probably target Williams.

But Fournette to the Niners might not be terrible. Also leaves Mixon with solid landing spots.

Mines simple. The Niners take a QB at 1.02.

McCaffery to the Lions and Ross to Carolina wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing.

Chargers taking Davis or Williams would probably be worst case scenario for me as a Keenan owner and someone looking to add an additional WR.

Hard to say without knowing the other landing spots, but Ross would be around the 1.07-1.09 spot for me. The top 6 stays the same I think.

I think Fournette landing in Jacksonville is terrible for him. I doubt that they would be able to run the ball that much better with him there than they have with Ivory and Yeldon.

In the Jets current state I think any WR that lands there will be in trouble in terms of value.

While the Colts need a running back, their offensive line is so bad there that I could see it being damaging to any RBs value if one lands there.

Any scenario where McCaffrey goes in the top 10.

I really wanted him at 1.05; but it is starting to seem less and less likely that could happen.
(I really want him).

Any positional player landing with the Jets or 49ers immediately tanks their value.
If you can't leave at least a 20% tip, you can't afford to eat out.

I am with you Phased. I have the 1.06 in a couple leagues and was fine with him there. Now it seems it will probably be Mike Williams from the way boards and mocks are looking. I do need a wr on one of the teams though, just not a big fan of his.

If any of the top RBs go super-low in the draft (unlikely) or to horrible teams (likely) or to Patriots-like timeshares (sigh)... I might just "whelp" and draft all free agent kickers with my rookie picks.

(Not that we should have damned kickers in dynasty anymore, but I'll keep fighting for their obliteration, year after year!)

Heard more whispers of Fournette to 49ers today. That would be dumb.

I actually think Engram is a better WR than Williams is and I think EE would be more valuable to an NFL team because of his versatility.

I just hope none of my favorite rookie targets go to NE, because I couldn't bring myself to then draft and own said player.

mccaffery to the chargers would be hilarious , as I have seen zero people mention this , new defensive minded coach , which often like to run the ball and play defense , super sized woodhead type , gordon being a bit inefficient , rivers could uses a check down option . Widely mocked hooker but this draft is deep enough bolts could take mccaffery in 1st and likely still get josh jones or marcus maye in 2nd or 3rd round to address their safety needs.
I also think the browns want someone to draft mitchell trubisky that is why they keep shining spotlight on how much they love him that would allow them to trade back perhaps and take the guy they really like perhaps watson or perhaps load up on extra picks and players to address other needs .
