206) TE Tre' McKitty
248) RB CJ Verdell
That's a completely rebuilt DL with athleticism and length abound, an LT for the next 10+ years, a big, fast X receiver, and a bunch of athletes with excellent traits. The first two picks alone would be better than a dream scenario.

That first trade is utterly stupid, and totally unrealistic. You get to trade back just 2 spots, move up 20 spots in the 2nd round, go from pick 127 to 66 and then from pick 165 to 86?
Existing picks were worth 800, 360, 45 and 24 for a total of 1229 and in return you get 760, 560, 260 and 160 for a total of 1740. If you were EVER able to get that in real life, you would be voted GM of the year instantly. The net gain was 511 points or the 39th overall pick, so a very high 2nd round pick. I do understand this is just a draft simulator, but to say that it is a good one, when it offers that sort of trade option, says to me that it really isn't a very good simulator at all.
Personally i think that confirms that PFF is there only as a guide and wild fun.
I actually don't mind some of their statistical analysis, even if it is often very flawed.
