Final Fanspeak Trade Down Mock
Tampa Bay offered their 1st (#7), 2nd, 3rd and 5th for 1-1. We really don't need 14 picks so I then went about trading up. Send 4-1, 5-3 and 7-1 to Philadelphia for 3-22 then Minnesota offered 2-8 and 3-32 for 2-1 so I wound up with six selections the second day and used that to build the offense around my new QB.
1-7 (from TAM): Teddy Bridgewater, QB, Louisville
2-6 (from TAM): Jace Amaro, TE, Texas Tech
2-8 (from MIN): Joel Bitonio, T-G, Nevada (projecting him at G)
3-1: Tre Mason, RB, Auburn
3-5 (from TAM): Shayne Skov, ILB, Stanford
3-22 (from PHI): James Hurst, OT, North Carolina (projects to RT)
3-32 (from SEA via MIN): DeMarcus Lawrence, DE-OLB, Boise St.
4-35 (comp): Kelcy Quarles, DT, South Carolina
5-1: Walt Aikens, CB, Liberty (talented corner with red flags)
6-1: Bennett Jackson, CB, Notre Dame
6-5: (from OAK): Tevin Reese, WR, Baylor (pure speed guy, kick returner?)
6-35 (comp): Ryan Carrethers, DT, Arkansas St
7-41 (comp): Carrington Byndom, CB, Texas
So, the first two days were about building a new offense around Bridgewater and the third day was about getting players to upgrade the defense.
