This has been an eventful draft. I switched over to the Bucks Raptors game when I saw the Raps were just up by 8.

Surprised that Chiefs trade up. I am a fan of Patrick Mahomes though. Good situation for him.

Bolles pick by Bronco's seems like a reach to me. Liked OJ Howard to Bucs.

It looks like the Bears had to much to drink. Horrible pick


Not familiar with Dazanni's, but if you meant Davanni's, excellent choice.

lol Good one.


I'm not the foremost expert, and Andy Reid has a great track record, but I don't understand a world in which Patrick Mahomes is drafted ahead Dashaun Watson. Not just intangibles (like family), but mechanics and production also goes to Watson.

It's obviously a 2-1 deal KC needs more pitching. Kinda like you said I'll defer to Reid on that one. I honestly know next to nothing about Mahomes I didn't dig much into the top QBs. I thought Watson might have been undervalued but ai guess not I wasn't sure he would even go as high as he did. Teams want/need QBs.

Want I was hearing is Mahomes has rare arm talent and that was being comparrd to Jeff George and Farve. I didnt like any of these QBs before the 2nd round. I hope with Mahomes going this early it helps the value his dads rookie baseball card. I need to go dig that up.

Packers are on the clock at top of round 2. Lamp-G is there and it is a need after losing both guards last year. Kevin King-CB would be a great pick too since he is thr beat preas corner in the draft and they are really lacking at CB.

Vikings are in good shape to get OL, DL, and RB help at 15. Even lots of good options at Safety or LB.

I just listened to Wolfson's latest podcast and he said he feels certain Mixon is not off their draft board and he says he has sources that says Zimmer actually likes Mixon. That doesn't mean they would take him in the 2nd by I thought it was interesting. There was some other interesting stuff but that was the most interesting thing.

What if Cook and Mixon are available?

This updated round 2 mock has us taking Mixon.
