*****OFFICIAL 2017 Saccopoo NFL Mock Draft Thread*****

[RealSNR]

START DATE AND TIME: March 20th, noon central

RULES:

Spoiler!

1. 12 hours for each pick. Unless it's on the weekends.....then your clock can go **** itself.

2. Make sure that you have PMs turned on. After you make your selection, PM the next person up to let them know that they're on the clock. If you know that you aren't going to be on and able to make your selection, PM a list of your desired picks (in the order you want them) to someone else. You can send those to me if you want since I won't be in control of any teams. If you miss your pick, you will be skipped and you'll have to make your pick as soon as you can. If you miss two consecutive picks, you lose your teams.

3. Format your selections as such: *Insert team name* selects Player Name, POS, School. Make sure they are bolded so that people can see them. You can add pictures and explanations if you'd like but they aren't required.

4. Do a search of the thread before you pick to make sure that the player hasn't been selected. If you pick a player that has already been drafted, you face the wrath of the entire thread and you'll have to correct it. So don't make a pick and then leave for 14 hours. Stick around and make sure that you didn't **** up.

Not that you have a choice, I guess.

So is Christmas but your next pick is better than SNR trying to use his reverse psychology for more dic pics or Oreach.city making picks while huffing laughing gas.

[Direckshun]

The Miami Dolphins select Xavier Woods, S, Louisiana Tech.

[RealSNR]

This draft is so deep that I think we'll all be pretty surprised by how poorly we do when we compare each pick's value with the real draft.

Nearly every other pick we're making generates a "Wow, can't believe this guy was on the board for that long" reaction. When there's that much talent in thick tiers at several positions, we have no clue how NFL teams are going to interpret those values. You add some uncertainty here or there, and more than likely we could very well see all of these "steals" we're getting get drafted later than we think or even fall off the end of the draft entirely. There's going to be a ****ing insane pool of rookie free agents to choose from with a ton of really really good players in that pool. A lot of them are going to be guys we're picking right now.

Agree.

While we seem to dig deep into the depth of the draft, I think some players in positions that are thin will be over valued/drafted.

I'm interested in seeing how the talent pool from this draft effects the veterans that are borderline to make rosters and in KCs case, I'm interested to see how many vets lose their spot to rookies due to the 10 draft picks.

[CleveSteve]

What are the chances zombie Direckshun forgot to PM O.City?

[BossChief]

I sent a PM to O just incase

I think we're going to see quite a few notable veterans get cut next offseason to clear some cap space (Bailey, Parker, DJ, etc.), I think this draft is going to be pretty transparent in showing us who they plan on moving on from.

[O.city]

NY giants select

Zach Banner OT USC

[staylor26]

The Oakland Raiders select Tanner Vallejo, LB, Boise State

Wouldn't be surprised if he goes later than this in the real draft, but I'm going to roll the dice and try to fill the Raiders need at LB. You have to go back to 2014 and 2015 to see it (played out of position in 2016), but this guy reminds me of Kiko Alonso.

At the same time, the NFL really doesn't do that as much as you think. It's an immediate return league. If someone is being drafted now, it's not usually because they're looking to replace someone down the line. It's for immediate depth at a position, or they like talent. These GM's and Coaches look more towards the immediate year... The 53 man roster (as silly as it sounds) is very limiting on what you can do for developmental means. While I agree that we could possibly see that for a specific position, I'm not sure it's as cut and dry as what you're suggesting with transparency for multiple replacements.

I do really like this kid and hope he gets a look by the Chiefs in later rounds.

Fair enough, maybe I was just thinking in terms of how Dorsey usually goes about drafting. His high picks usually are somewhat related to players that are soon departing, and I feel that with how loaded this draft is that philosophy is going to blend in to the mid rounds as well since we are going to be able to get higher value later in the draft than usual.

[ChiefAshhole1056]

The Houston Texans select Jonnu Smith, FIU, TE.

[The Franchise]

Chiefs are on the clock.
