Go to First-pick.com and sign up (as if you haven't already)

You are NOT allowed to make any trades - not a single trade - up or down.

You can do it as many times as you want but you can only post one draft result.

Submit your best draft in this thread - I don't care what kind of score the website gives you - the best overall draft (in my subjective opinion) for the Rams will get $50,000,000 of my ROD dollars. (I still haven't figured out what exactly they are for or how I got them but I assume I am allowed to give them away?)

Round 5 Pick 9: Andy Gallik, C, Boston College (A)

This is of course if we re-sign Barksdale. I will make another if he signs with another team.

If Bazooka Joe goes, there's still a chance Long is retained and plays RT.
If we do keep Long, he's obviously not going to dethrone GRob at LT

That is true, guess we shall see this week. A healthy Long at RT would be awesome. So would Saffold at RG next to Barks.

Round 1 Pick 10: Amari Cooper, WR, Alabama (A)

Round 3 Pick 8: Ali Marpet, OG, Hobart & William Smith (A-)
Round 5 Pick 9: Tyler Kroft, TE, Rutgers (A)
Round 7 Pick 10: Corey Robinson, OT, South Carolina (C+)

Tough to pass on the trade offers. Funny thing about this draft - I think Robinson in the 7th is an absolute steal and it was my worst grade!

LG- Clint Boling
C- Brian De La Puente
RG- Rodger Saffold
RT- Andrus Peat
OL Depth- Barret Jones, Jermaiah Poutasi, Brandon Washington, Max Garcia, Demetrious Rhaney

Notice how first pick doesn't like Corey Robinson and Rams fans do? He would be an absolute steal in the 7th. I think he goes 3rd or 4th round.

Round 1 Pick 10: Jameis Winston, QB, Florida State (A)
Round 2 Pick 9: Jaelen Strong, WR, Arizona State (A)
Round 3 Pick 8: Ty Sambrailo, OT, Colorado State (A)
Round 5 Pick 9: Andy Gallik, C, Boston College (A)
Round 7 Pick 10: Deshazor Everett, CB, Texas A&M (B-)

This would be a dream scenario for me. I think Strong is going to be the WR steal from this draft
I just can't see the Rams waiting until the 3rd round to start fixing the O-Line!! IF the line isn't fixed we're FUCKED!! Plain and simple!!

Corey Robinson has extremely lazy technique and possibly the slowest feet I've ever seen. I don't see how he could possibly make it in the NFL...

This is exactly why the contest involves no trades .... It would be so much better of a site if they would program in the trade value chart and update the player rankings more frequently. Not that it isn't worth 10 hours of my life per year as it is .....


P.S. Good luck signing that draft class and staying under the cap.

I dont disagree that it has to be fixed, but I would rather see it solved through free agency rather than starting 2 rookies and in that scenario passing on Winston (which is not realistic but he was available in the draft)

Not that I'm competing in this .... just tossing out the draft to beat.

Round 1 Pick 10: Jameis Winston, QB, Florida State (A)
Round 2 Pick 9: Dorial Green-Beckham, WR, Oklahoma (A)
Round 3 Pick 8: D.J. Humphries, OT, Florida (C+)
Round 5 Pick 9: Andy Gallik, C, Boston College (A)
Round 7 Pick 10: Derrick Lott, DT, Chatanooga (A-)

And even after all that - we would still potentially have a hole at guard.
