Is there a good free simulator (7 round with trades) out there that assesses/grades your picks? (Noticed you have to pay PFF if you want the assessment). I know there used to be one I used but for the life of me can't remember where that was.

Try this, the trade scenarios are a bit loopy but it is free. What the grades are worth is questionable but I wouldn't put too much faith in them

Watching this video of Commies coaches coaching up players at the Senior Bowl, two things stick out to me. Travelle Wharton, former o-lineman for the Panthers with Ron and current Commies asst. o-line coach, has dropped a ton of weight from his playing days. And Maurice Jones-Drew, former stud running back, has gained so much weight from his playing days. Amazing.

Good watch on what goes on behind the scenes at the combine too.

I used PFN simulator and while I think it pops up some unbelievable trades, I decided to take treat this run like the trades were realistic. Asides from the Giants proposal, they didn't seem far fetched this time.

29 Anton Harrison OT Oklahoma
Trade 25th with Saints #29 and OC C.Ruiz
50 Drew Sanders LB Arkansas
Trade 49th with Buccs #50 and #252
57 DJ Turner CB Michigan
Trade #16 with Giants (yeah right?) #25 and #57
97 Sam LaPorta TE Iowa
118 Kyu Blu Kelly CB Stanford
150 McClendon Curtis OG Chattanooga
193 Ali Gaye EDGE LSU
215 Max Duggan QB TCU
233 Puka Nacua WR BYU
251 Anfernee Orji LB Vanderbilt
Trade #47 with Steelers #49 and #251
252 Mark Evans II OG Arkansas Pine-Bluff

Tomorrow being Monday isn't even annoying this week. Draft week baby!!! Our Super Bowl!!!

I would commit crimes for this draft:

16: R1 P16 - OT Broderick Jones - Georgia
47: R2 P16 - CB DJ Turner - Michigan
97: R3 P34 - LB Dorian Williams - Tulane
118: R4 P16 - G McClendon Curtis - Chattanoga
150: R5 P15 - S Ji’Ayir Brown - Penn State
193: R6 P16 - OT Carter Warren - Pittsburgh
215: R6 P38 - C Ricky Stromberg - Arkansas
233: R7 P16 - EDGE Tavius Robinson - Mississippi

Positions I think we will be targeting:

Tackle
Corner
RB
Buffalo Nickel/3rd Safety
Interior Oline
Linebacker
Defensive End

A lot of talk about getting a Defensive End because of the 2 guys in contract years (CY option isn’t picked up). I think DE and TE are the wild card

In any case, best payer available.

I'd also target DE as Toney is suspended/gone.

16: R1 P16 - OT Paris Johnson - Ohio State
47: R2 P16 - LB Jack Campbell - Iowa
97: R3 P34 - CB Jakorian Bennett - Maryland
118: R4 P16 - RB Eric Gray - Oklahoma
150: R5 P15 - OT Jaelyn Duncan - Maryland
193: R6 P16 - C Olusegun Oluwatimi - Michigan
215: R6 P38 - G T.J. Bass - Oregon
233: R7 P16 - EDGE Isaiah Land - Florida A&M
