Forgot to post this before my hiatus...

I came into this with picks 1-31, 2-63, 3-95, 3-100, 4-134, 5-166, 6-209, 6-217, 7-249, and 7-250.

I am executing a trade up, sending 1-31 (190 pts) and 2-63 (82 pts) with a net of 231.2 pts to the Dallas Cowboys for 1-26 (223 pts) and 5-169 (8 pts) for a net of 231 pts.

I am declining the Chiefs' trade of 3-95 and 6-217 to the Cincinnati Bengals for 3-92

My draft is as follows:

1-26 DT Mazi Smith, Michigan 6'3" 323 (#1-26 by DAL)
One of my major needs coming into this was strengthing my DT spot because I have little depth or long-term viability at the position. Smith is an anchor of a NT that's difficult to move off his spot and should improve as a pass rusher with his burst.

3-95 CB Kelee Ringo, Georgia 6'2" 207 (#4-105 by PHI)
I don't have a tremendous need at CB but I felt like Ringo was a tremendous value here. He has 1st round talent but lacks the overall character to support it. I'm taking a shot that he realizes he's no longer an entitled 5-star recruit and takes to coaching more because he has the opportunity to be a starter as soon as next season.

3-100 OT Carter Warren, Pittsburgh 6'5" 311 (#4-120 by NYJ)
Another need has been solidifying the RT spot. While I might be fine with Raimann and Taylor now, I still want to try to get ahead of the game here with a more solid reserve situation at minimum. I feel like Warren has the opportunity to be a really good player and could even surprise as a starting LT in time.

4-134 DE K.J. Henry, Clemson 6'4" 251 (#5-137 by WAS)
It seems like I take a pass rusher every year in an attempt to approve my depth and so here I am again. I really like the burst Henry shows off the line and he has some decent bend. He'll need to gain some strength and mass and also get a heavy dose of technique work but he's headed into a situation where he doesn't need to be a dude immediately.

5-166 RB Eric Gray, Oklahoma 5'9" 207 (#5-172 by NYG)
Gray reminds me of when I took Aaron Jones in this round 6 years ago. He's a good one-cut runner with a really good burst and solid change of direction to go with solid long-speed. He's also a really solid receiver out the backfield and blocks pretty well as a 3rd-down back.

5-169 WR A.T. Perry, Wake Forest 6'4" 198 (#6-195 by NO)
I'm going to take a shot on living with the drops here because I think Perry has all the tools to be a superstar WR in the NFL. He has a shot to be a major contributor right out the gate and take over for a starter in year two if he can prove to be reliable. Yes please to a 1st-round caliber talent outside of the drops this late.

6-209 DT Dante Stills, West Virginia 6'3" 285 (#6-213 by ARZ)
I really like Stills' ability to get after the QB and be at least a rotational player that could put up some numbers in that regard. He probably fits best as a 3-4 5T and I have the horses now to be flexible in any front.

6-217 FS Anthony Johnson Jr., Iowa State 6'0" 205 (#7-242 by GB)
I don't have a huge need at safety but upgrading my 5th guy is something I'm willing to take a shot in here with a guy that I feel like was an enormous steal. He has corner experience and can cover plus he's a really physical tackler and player. He has solid speed for an NFL safety prospect. Once he gets his angles down pat, I think he'll be a starter sooner than later.

7-249 DT Desjuan Johnson, Toledo 6'2" 285 (#7-259 by LAR)
Johnson is very much like Stills, showing the ability to get quite a bit of pressure on the QB. If I've done anything this draft late, it's to stock the room with guys that can go get it and maybe develop into more, especially as 3-4 ends.

7-250 DT Jerrod Clark, Coastal Carolina 6'4" 334 (UDFA by LAC)
Clark is a stab at a reserve NT for me. I think he was more than a draftable prospect so falling to UDFA status has me perplexed. I've made it my mission to at least try a Veach-style restock and I'm doing so on my DL where I've had far too many misses recently with guys like Blacklock and Nixon being turds.
