The 3031 NFL Amateur Draft
Here we go at 1/9. Good players on the board?
Oh yeah. A great OG is here, Antonio Durrough, which of course, I don’t need. TE Adam Savoie looks better than Brant Carman. C Ian Riley is lights out good.
The next tier. DT Bart Davison, 78/76/50. He;s okay. The kind you’d hope to pull at 1/20 not 1/9. LB Craig Zuchowski, 70/84/98/86/59. That‘s pretty good. CB Broderick Harrison is great.
Someday one of my 1st round LB shouldn’t be a bust, right? Right?
Then our 1/36 pick arrives. It’s an obvious need meets value with an OT who is better than anyone I’ve had in a long time. OT with 66/82/66
We are up again at 2.6 Our only pick of the round. Oh look., another OT.
3/6 is here! Time to start BAPing. I break a rule I’ve held since 2001 when I became a GM 30 years ago. I am drafting a P/K. He looks downright awesome, and my P is getting old. He’s in my lap, so I take him.

TE Kenneth Garrison, Oregon State
WR Dan Welch, Virginia Tech
WR Jimmie Dukes, USC
DE Devin Shafer, Kentucky
DE Kent Barlow, USC
CB Trent Dotson, Virginia Tech

I decide to bite the bullet and cut first round bust Mo Razo, LB.
I sign LB Mo Strother to a two year deal. He is just a long term patch but a solid one. I am paying him 6 million a year. Money I cleared by cutting Razo.
I have 51 players so let’s go camping.
