****OFFICIAL 2024 Saccopoo CP Mock Draft Thread****

[staylor26]

START DATE AND TIME: Monday, March 11th, 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, or some other poster you trust. Make sure the person who selects before you knows who to alert when your team is on the clock. 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.

5. I and everybody else who help operate this mock try to keep up on NFL offseason news while the draft is in session. We input the comp picks, and we're usually good about adjusting the order for any blockbuster trades that may occur where the previously made picks aren't affected, but sometimes we miss things. It may be a good idea to keep up-to-date on your team's offseason moves regarding their supply of draft picks and let us know if stuff comes up so we can make the changes to the draft order. No, in the end, the true order will likely not be 100% perfect or accurate, but shit happens when you do mocks a month before a draft starts.

[staylor26]

Round 3 is up!

[ToxSocks]

With the 60th overall pick the Buffalo Bills select Bralen Trice, Edge, Washington.

[Couch-Potato]

DET Lions select Payton Wilson, LB, NC ST.

[JPH83]

Baltimore Ravens select Christian Haynes, G, Conneticut

[Chargem]

This has fallen quite nicely for the Chiefs again, there are at least 2 options I would be happy with here after the 49ers pick

[duncan_idaho]

I’m on mobile (on vacay with the fam), but pretend I kept my Kyle Shanahan = Kendal Roy shtick going here. Something something not as good as daddy something something nepo baby.

The 49ers select Adisa Isaac, DE, Penn State.

Something something “edge rusher” is a stupid term that should be taken out into a field and made an example of, like a Mexican cartel making an example of a snitch or traitor. As an abbreviation, it also is stupid, as it is a whopping one character shorter that DE/OLB and teams have schemes to boot that make it clear whether they’re a DE or OLB.

Have DM'd Duncan and told him he needs to re-pick, unless he is suggesting sharing Isaac with the Falcons who took him with the 43rd pick.

If you're not that confident in Nix, you probably shouldn't be taking him in the early 30s.

If he's good enough to take at 44. If you're happy to take him in the early 2nd, you should probably be willing to give a 3rd rounder and take him in the 1st. Especially if learning curve, not raw ability, is your concern.

Except I don't think I need to take him late in the 1st. I get him where I got him, keep my picks to build round him as best I can. If he's Jalen Hurts, great, if he blows, oh well, hopefully the next guy has a little more talent around him when I ditch Nix.

That would be a rough commute.

[staylor26]

I'm going to give duncan a little bit of time to change his pick before I do.

[staylor26]

Ok, I'm going to assume Duncan might be a while since he's on vacay.

The 49ers select Marshawn Kneeland, EDGE, Western Michigan

Trying to stick with the same position, since Kneeland would also be a great value at the end of the 2nd.

Chargem is on the clock. If Duncan returns before then, he can change this pick. Once Chargem has picked, we move on.

[Rain Man]

Pick a future Hall of Famer, chargem. Do it.

It's not about need. It's about the value of the 5th year option - that's all.

Now if you're the Raiders and your position is "hey, that's a problem for 4 years from now; meanwhile I need that 3rd rounder to fix problems I have right this very second..." then I get it.

But man, QBs are just so damn expensive. There's the possibility of that 5th year option have $10-$20 million in surplus value.

It'd be an interesting study really - what's the 'cash value' of a 3rd round pick on average. And what's the cash value of the average 5th year option season?

Yep, they're expensive, but when you find a good one you pay them because they'll be worth it. If I found one in R2 along with a guy to protect his right side for cheap for 5 years, as well as a 3rd pick to round out the team I'd take it. Lord knows the Raiders need picks too. So yeah I think your evaluation of my approach is about right
