Front Office Football Central - View Single Post - 38 Players in One Draft

With three players on the board I can take, my choices are essentially QB Briggs, WR Harris Powell or RB Bryan McMillan. With that many choices it’s easy. Trade back.

I drop to 1/9 and take Washington’s 1/9. 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th.

Washington – CB Bernard Delgado
Giants – S Kendall Anderson

Well, I screwed up. In hindsight, its obvious that I should have traded farther back than 9 and gotten higher round picks for my time. Maybe I could have gotten a 3rd rounder if I had dropped back a few more places. I still have the same three players on the board as before, only now, I have a decision to make. Dropping back gets less and less lucrative every time you do it. Time to swallow my pride and make a choice.

However, all three of the players I covet are on the board. Even if one falls to me at 16, the other is not at 21. I wonder.

The run on QBs has stopped for now. Let’s go with that stud WR.

Pick 9 – WR Harris Powell of Nebraska

Let’s hope the right guy falls to me.
