Coming out of it with Davis, McCaffrey and Mixon is clearly good business. And getting Mack for a 3 and a 4 is a nice gamble too.

But personally I think you've taken the two ends too early. What sort of production do you think you're going to get from them to justify that? For me neither is likely to be a top IDP pass rusher. And certainly not in 2017. Gregg Williams likes to rotate his DEs which caps Garrett's upside a bit. And I don't like Solomon T as a fantasy asset. Which similar player are you hoping he performs like?

I could well be wrong on either but personally I think they're R3 gambles rather than where you took them above the 3 LBs I really like and some other offensive darts

Your first round is amazing...your second round is solid, but I would have probably taken Davis (and likely even Foster) over either DE (if I was going to go IDP at those picks). Awesome first round though.

I like Solomon Thomas as a shorter faster DE on that D-Line. I think he could be phenomenal with his 94th %ile athleticism. The NFC west has some bad o-lines that should yield production. Thomas has Stanford smarts and a knack for diagnosing plays. He's my DE1 in this class. I may use a 2.11 on him, as there are no safe offensive options remaining.

Basically agree with this. I would have preferred Davis and Foster to the ends.
