2015 Forum Mock: Discussion Thread

[Mt. Crushmore]

Actually, "Official" is for use by the Ravens staff only.

 

What if I told you I was actually John Harbaugh?  Would that count?

[BALTIMOREFLACCO]

Sincerest apologies to those in this game. I was very much looking forward to participating (especially with the Colts' cap space) until some unforeseen circumstances came up. I know I probably held things up and made things inconvenient for those running this game, so for that I apologize. I hope y'all had as much fun with this as I've had the last few years. Again, sorry for falling out of communication and failing to remove myself from the game.

Why am I not surprised that Truth picked the same first two players the Ravens did...

My third pick was between Ameer Abdullah and Carl Davis and I went with the former after much deliberation. Would've been very funny though. I also picked up Tray Walker as a UDFA so there's that.

No problem. Figured we could all come out winners.

I was happy to get two Ravens guys with allen and myers. Last Raven I got in this game was Wagner.

[rmw10]

I had a pretty good draft this year according to where players went in real life...

 

Amari Cooper - got him at pick 6 and not pick 4

Marcus Hardison - the biggest miss, had him in round 3 but went in round 4

Ty Sambrailo - biggest gain, got him in round 4 but went in round 2

Kenny Bell - picked in round 4 but went in round 5

Davis Tull - picked in round 6, but went in round 5

Rory Anderson - picked in round 7 and went in round 7, to the 49ers in real life

Imoan Claiborne - only guy I picked that wasn't drafted, but picked him with my 7th round comp

 

Clayton Geathers - undrafted but went in round 4

Nick Boyle - undrafted but went in round 5

Tye Smith - undrafted but went in round 5

[Mt. Crushmore]

My draft compared to NFL Draft:

 

Round 1, Pick 25 -- Cameron Erving, C, Florida State + 6 value (my spot minus NFL spot)

Round 2, Pick 12 -- Paul Dawson, LB, Texas Christian University - 55 value 

Round 3, Pick 5 -- Carl Davis, DT, Iowa - 21 value

Round 3, Pick 15 -- Eric Rowe, CB/S, Utah + 32 value

Round 4, Pick 6 -- Justin Hardy, WR, East Carolina - 2 value

Round 6, Pick 4 -- Jeremiah Poutasi, G, Utah + 111 value

Round 7, Pick 5 -- Quandre Diggs, CB, Texas + 75 value

 

Total Value = +146 value

 

I also had 2 of my UDFAs go in the draft:

Geremy Davis, WR, UConn = #186

Christian Covington, DT, Rice = #216

Ameer Abdullah (RB): S - Round 2 (27) | D - Round 2 (22)

 

Steven Nelson (CB): S - Round 3 (23) | D - Round 3 (34C)

 

Senquez Golson (DB): S - Round 4 (3) | D - Round 2 (24)

For what it's worth, between Breshad Perriman, Maxx Williams, Tray Walker, Darius Allen and Domonique Hayden, I have five players who will be coming into the Ravens camp. Certainly didn't expect that coming in, but I'm thrilled to be able to evaluate those players while watching my favorite team.

All but 1 of my UDFAs actually signed with a team as well, and that 1 holdout is AJ Johnson, who has that rape case and was not expected to sign with a team right off the bat anyways.  I'm glad I get to evaluate all of the guys I picked up this year, because last year I picked up so many UDFA that never even signed to a team.

[rmw10]

And this is how my draft would have turned out in real life...

 

Round 1, Pick 4: WR Amari Cooper

Round 2, Pick 27: OT Ty Sambrailo

Round 4, Pick 10: SS Clayton Geathers

Round 4, Pick 36: DT Marcus Hardison

Round 5, Pick 12: OLB Davis Tull

Round 5, Pick 26: WR Kenny Bell

Round 5, Pick 34: CB Tye Smith

Round 5, Pick 35: TE Nick Boyle

Round 7, Pick 37: TE Rory Anderson

 

Turned 7 draft picks into 9 with the addition of my UDFAs, and made the trade up for Cooper look like it only costed a 3rd and 6th.

[52520Andrew]

How my draft panned out

Format = taken by me = taken in real draft = difference

Eli Harold = 40 = 79 = -39

Coates = 46 = 87 = -41

Tomlinson = 63 = 28 = 35

Grant = 142 = 121 = 21

Davison = 164 = 154 = 10

Carter = 188 = 257(undrafted) = -69

Carden = 214 = 257(undrafted) = -43

Donnal = 223 = 119 = 104

Lott = 243 = 257 = - 14

Ifedi = 257 = 227 = 30

Ripkowski = 257 = 206 = 51

-39 - 41 + 35 +21 +10 - 69 - 43 + 104 - 14 + 30 + 51 = 45 so I netted in the positives.

Best value pick = Donnal who ended up going to the Rams as well

Worst value pick = Carter although I kinda knew the value would be off on that one.

I ended up getting 2 Rams who ended up being drafted and Cameron Lynch is set to sign with the Rams as an UDFA

Unsigned UDFAs =

Erik Dargon who is weighing offers from 5 or 6 interested teams

Keeston Terry

Cam Worthy EDIT: signed with Ravens

Rakeem Cato

Waiting for my pick in the DaF so I decided to go back through out forum mock NFL draft thread.  Interesting to go back and look at the picks.

Hahaha, I was thinking the same thing.

[ludy51]

Just fixed my O-Line

[RavensFanMania]

Using the same format that Andrew used here is how my 2015 Forum Mock turned out.  Yes I know I'm a bit late on this....

Format = taken by me = taken in real draft = difference

Shane Ray = 12 = 23 = -11  (kind of wish I went another direction with this pick)
Ereck Flowers = 31 = 9 = +22
Arik Armstead = 38 = 17 = +21
Jordan Phillips = 42 = 52 = -10
David Johnson = 83 = 86 = -3

Derron Smith = 85 = 197 = -112

John Miller = 152 = 81 = +71

Leterrius Walton = 189 = 199 = +10

Antwan Goodley = 190 = UDFA = -67

Xavier Williams = 245 = UDFA = -12

-11 + 22 + 21 - 10 - 3 - 112 + 71 - 10 - 67 - 12 = -111

 

I ended up in the negatives due in large part to my 3rd round Derron Smith pick which was a negative 112.   Besides thos picks I was within the same round on 5 of 10. I nailed most of my picks as I was within 15 on 5 of 10 spots of being drafted and 7 of 10 were within 22 spots of being picked.

Best value pick = John Miller who was picked in the 3rd round and I took him in the 5th.

Worst value pick = Derron Smith who I drafted in the 3rd and he went in 6th. (he was the reason I was negative and I still think he is going to be a very good FS)

Guess I never did an overall value chart...

 

Amari Cooper: Pick 4 vs. Pick 6 = +2

Marcus Hardison: Pick 86 vs. Pick 135 = -49

Kenny Bell: Pick 123 vs. Pick 162 = -39

Ty Sambrailo: Pick 97 vs. Pick 59 = +38

Davis Tull: Pick 193 vs. Pick 148 = +45

Rory Anderson: Pick 224 vs. Pick 254 = -30

Imoan Claiborne: Pick 252 vs. UDFA = -5

 

Overall value = -38

 

Not the best value, but I'm more than alright by only being off by a round for Hardison and Bell, since they are 2 of my favorite players.

 

It doesn't hurt that I grabbed Clayton Geathers (round 4), Angelo Blackson (round 4), Tye Smith (round 5), and Nick Boyle (round 5) in UDFA, which really helps out my overall value.

 

I've also made the executive decision to make some cuts and signings in old posts so I don't bump everything, and I'll be picking up LS Joe Cardona, LB David Mayo, and P Bradley Pinion who have all been drafted as well.  I live that thug life so I do what I want.  No one else made the claim so I'll gladly take them lol

Edited May 31, 2015 by rmw10

[52520Andrew]

I have cut ILB Prince Shembo and signed C Tim Barnes, like rmw not going to make posts in the cut thread or FA thread as it would be too many threads to bump but I am not keeping Shembo around and Barnes has been a guy I have been wanting to add. My depth chart has been updated to show this

[rmw10]

This game seriously hates me.  Signing Jeff Allen in place of the now retired Anthony Davis.
