Draft Round by Round

[Harry]

Well here's my view. The way this works is simple. The numbers are the picks. The players are the ones I would select in order of preference. There are only 4 players at 13. For may money I'd just have 3 and eliminate Watson, but if the Cards insist in taking a QB at 13, he's my man. If all these players are gone I'd prefer to trade down. Ramczyk is hanging there because he'd be my next choice if they can't trade down. With the other groups if all my picks are gone, elevate the top guy from the next group. For example, if all my picks at 119 are gone, take Golladay. I tried to put additional info in parenthesis if I felt the choice may be confusing. These are not the only players I like, just my preference.

What do you think of George Kittle from Iowa (and what round would you take him)?

I love your thinking (especially the three sleeper dudes with the hard to spell last names).

Seems as though, after Round 4, the overall talent-level of the picks falls over a cliff.

The Kelly pick - within context of the overall draft suggests that he's the only QB you feel we should be interested in. Regarding his so-called "issues" - these kinds of things can vary considerably from player to player, and it would help to know more. Without that info, the temptation would be to speculate on what we think we may know. In Kelly's case, you have a (presumably) well-off relative of a former star who might be a spoiled rich kid with a sense of entitlement. True? Or just a wrong impression? When you get beneath the superficial stuff, maybe he's really a good kid. Or not. Finally, at what point does confident swagger morph into arrogance? (What do his teammates say about him)?

Harry:

isnt this a rough way NFL teams do it in actuality?

I.e. -- i dont think they rank all 400 some players 1-400 and pick off the list, but rather have players by round, ranked within that round

I know the Cards have their 120 board or something, and even though the draft if more than 120 -- there are always players left by round 7
