The 2017 NFL Draft

We manage to get our guy at 1.7. Two DEs are off the board already. Let's just hope and see. Two more DEs fall off the board at 9 and 11. Two more at 18 and 20. Another at 25.

We have a problem. In the 20s, four safeties fall after another went in the 13 spot. The one from WVU is left alone, isolated, and at the top. Both my DE and S are at the top of their respective boards. That S is not one with high hopes or anything. Several teams don;t have needs at the position and pass by our WVU guy, but Texans arrive at the 1.32 spot with just one S on their roster and S their strongest need. So I make a trade offer. I flip them S John Cyprien, two of my 3rd rounders this year, and a 3rd next year. I also get two future 6th round picks too.

I select our S, and then grab the DE at 2.6.

I trade away a few of my picks as they arrive for future picks. Not a lot of depth in this year's draft.

Draft Report:

1st - OT Rylan Johnson, Wayne, WV
1st - S Edwin Laird, S, WVU
2nd - DE Lester Palmer, Wayne, WV
3rd - CB Abraham Dennis, WVU
5th - OT Weston Kochansky, WVU
5th - DE Liam Akers, Marshall
6th - C Oscar Martinez, Marshall
6th - OG Sebastian Camudgeon, WVU
7th - OT Donny Reagan, WVU
7th - S Randal Wiggins, WVU

I do not have high hopes for this class. I would not have drafted Laird, Palmer or Johnson in other dynasties -but you have to do what you have to do.
