The 2059 NFL Amateur Draft


The 1st pick is OG Otis Lucas, from Maryland, to the Titans.

Our picks arrivee. Off the board are 2 RB, CB, 3 LB, OG, DE and OT. We have the 10th and 11th picks. Who are my men?

The best player might be DT John Reuter, with 21/86, 31/100 and 53 stats. But can my roster really afford o invest two high picks in DT right now?

RB Russel Tumbleson is a good guy who can start for a while, but won’t be my Barrett, Shpehred, Hall guy, but he’ll be a rock. Expect 1400 rushing yards a season and some good TD numbers.

LB Richie Conzelman is a need pick with potentials of 80, 84, 85, 80 and 44 endurance. If that endurance were higher, he’d be an easy pickup for me.

Of those that went, LB McFarlane is a gift, because his current stats are all in the 60s or 70s and his pots in the 80s or 91 for one. He was taken already. The next had huge potentials, three of 100. So Conzelman is the 3rd best, but he’s still quality. One LB was not good enough to take, and Conzelman was better.

Fact - two of the best players on the board fit areas of need - I take both RB Tumbleson and LB Conzelman

Round 2 arrives. There are no great starters here. Sometimes you’ll get a WR, S, RB, TE, to fall to this spot. Not this year. The best is DE Nolan Cooper, with 22/76, 23/66 and 32 endurance. That’s a low endurance. DT JR Pierce is similar, 72, 74 and 35 his pots. You might be able to stretch CB Tyrone Fann or S Ricky Comella into starters. OG Joel Thomas is pretty solid, but I’m set at that position. I take Cooper. Comella is still on the board at 3 and I take him.

At the back of the 3rd, I like LB Archie Long, who is very developed already. I grab a good backup TE in Donovan Kleaver in the 4th. In the 5th, backup OG Dana Mueller falls to us. Then backup LB Thurman Wright, DE Robbie Cornwell, and CB Norm Naylor
