The 2060 NFL Amateur Draft

We have a pick way back in the back this year. QB Stephen Huntley and QB Roosevelt Skettitt are the only two worth drafting, and Skerritt’s potential is not better than my current 16 year old vet. Huntley is the guy. QB Marshall Kirk intrigues me as a backup, because he has very low potnetials, but is already very developed, so he’d be nice backup non-development type guy.

Huntley goes #1 to Richmond. I didn’t have enough ammo to trade into that spot for him. We pick #35 each round and have to struggle to find value. My pick arrives. Can I find that great player? Once about every five drafts or so a greats starter falls this far. Did it happen this year?

Yeah, he did. S Gene Hopper. Are you kidding me? Here are his stats - 27 of 82 in run d, 33 of 100 man to man, 23 of 74 zone, and 90 picks and 72 endurance. That is a nasty good Safety. Anyone else? Yeah!

WR Louis Dawson. 19/64 catching, 92 yards per catch, 25 of 100 for frequency, 80 3rd down, 94 carrying, 46 endurance. That is a nasty receiver this late! Any others?

LB Daryl Shaw, 33 of 86, 22 of 65, 28 of 70, 31 of 77, and 40 endurance is the normal type of player I’d get here and be happy with.

Backup choice S Bucky Stahlm with lower picks bu 26/89, 27/94 and 35/88 (38 picks) and 54 end. That’s very start-able.

And, QB Skerrit is still here! He’s not super hot - 14/64 screen, 14/65 short, 6/35 medium, 19/98 long, 13/66 deep, 34 3rd down, 19/81 accuracy, 13/90 power, 63 scramble, 50 carrying. That’s not All Pro every year but it is a very solid starter.

Others of merit - LB Roy Stevens, 20/80 run, 18/58 pass, 18/51 man to man, 25/95 zone, 64 endurance, LB Donald Pendergrass, 70s and 60s all stats pots with 30s current, LB Marty Blake the same, CB Skip Kayer, 10/50 for run D, 16/94 man, 18/100 zone, 45 picks, 48 endurance.

What happened? It’s like all of the talent mellted of the back of this round. I have drafted at the back of a lot of 1st rounders, and I have never witnessed such a bounty of treasure. I don’t even know where to start with this lot!

I look to see where they might tbe on folks’ board. Skerrit is 4th by QB future rating, Stahl is 2nd my current rating and 8th by future, Hopper is 1st by future, Dawson 5th by current, not listed in top ten by future, Shaw top by future, Pendergrass 3rd by it, Blake 4th by both current and future, Stevens not on list much and Kayer is not on list.

What do I do?

I have to get Dawson and Hopper. They are essential starters, with no flaws, perfect for me.

(And that's where I ended, see the above post about screwing up the draft accidentally)
