it's okay, i'm sure whomever shanny drafted, unless a RB, will be a bust and out of the league by the time of your next selection.

I hate sitting back watching player after player on my draft board getting picked.

i can't trust a USC QB anymore. those guys are all seemingly products of that team and then amount to nothing in the pros.

I really like Simon. I would have taken him on my last pick if I could have figured out a way to fit him in with the Rams.

I tried offering a 4th, 6th, and a 7th and I couldn't even get a response back to move up and draft him.

[BroncoMan4ever]

Drek you son of a b**** Simon was my pick!

Good pick though.

[CBF1]

Rambo was on my list, great value

Sorry, dude. I was in a hurry to get out this morning and didn't see that I had any PMs.

Its alright man **** happens.

[SouthStndJunkie]

I like the John Simon pick....he'll turn out to be a solid player for the team that drafts him.

[Shananahan]

I almost drafted Gratz with my last pick, thinking that he could theoretically play safety, and was hoping he'd last until my next one. Oh well.

[BowlenBall]

I had Gratz penciled in for my pick 4-18, dammit! Would have been a perfect corner for the Steelers.

Nice pick, Chargers.

Dallas draft so far:
1 - Johnathan Hankins, DT
2 - Travis Frederick, OG/C
3 - Ryan Swope, WR
4 - TJ McDonald, FS

[BroncoMan4ever]

With only a 6th round pick remaining the New York Giants draft is nearly complete. The 2013 New York Giants draft class

1-22 Keenan Allen, WR, Cal
2-19 Kevin Minter, LB, LSU
3-19 Le'Veon Bell, RB, Michigan State
4-13 Kiko Alonso, LB, Oregon
4-19 Nick Kasa, TE, Colorado

All in all, pretty happy with this draft.

I was torn between him, Sio Moore, Jamie Collins (Traveler ran late on his pick), Barrett Jones, and John Simon last pick, pretty much in that exact order. I went with Sio because he's the best all around LB and figured I'd have a shot at a solid rush OLB in the 4th, wound up Simon was still hanging around so it worked out great.

Solid players, not sure I like the value on Hankins and Frederick. We'll see where they end up going, but I'm thinking Hankins in Round 2 and Frederick in Round 3. Swope was solid value, 3rd Round seems right to me. McDonald probably goes in the 3rd, so he was your best value in the 4th. I think you definitely hit all the main need areas for Dallas, I think you probably could have traded back, got the same players, and picked up a few more picks.

All my opinions of course, and the real draft with bear out the truth.

Rock solid draft value the entire way through with Minter being a nice steal in all likelihood. I think you passed on some far better players at the same positions in the 4th round though. My biggest concern however is that the Giants have some issues on the O-line and in the secondary. With them being up against the cap, there won't be much help in Free Agency. I think in the real draft, we'll see them focus on RT, CB, and S, along with MLB, RB, and TE.

Love your first three picks, but didn't like either of the prospects in the 4th round. Kasa in particular was overly hyped early in the draft process, but didn't look like anything special to me at the combine. One thing about the OM mock draft every year -- the CU players always go about two rounds too early....

Anyway, at this point, I'd give your draft a solid B, but the final grade all depends on your 6th rounder.

I got a better offer. Sorry we couldn't deal....

i knew about the OL being a big need, it's just every time i was on the clock there was someone i had ranked higher than the best OL on the board. i am hoping to find a gem in the 6th. that is the good thing about this draft in particular. it has an abundance of OL talent so i think i can get a good player late.

see i like Alonso a lot. without the off field issues the guy probably is gone by the early 3rd at the earliest. and i love me some raw TE's and you're right he probably should have been taken later, but i had doubts he would be available in the 6th when my next pick is.

Ryan Nassib is National Football Post's scouting department's #1 player. Steelers got a steal. ORANGEMAN!?

I don't think he's the #1 talent by any means -- NFP’s Russ Lande (who used to be with the Sporting News) is pretty famous for having a somewhat... unusual big board. That being said, it is pretty silly to pick him up in the 4th round in the OM mock draft. He should easily be a 2nd rounder in April.
