Does anyone here play any NFL Draft simulator?

One site has Jaylon Smith dropping in the second round. I know it's only a game but I'd grab him if he's available in the second.
I've been messing around with fan speak and first-pick

It's very likely he falls even more than that. If his injury is as serious as is being reported, then round 5 should be as high as he goes. You shouldn't waste a high pick on a guy who will be out the year, and maybe more depending on where he is in his recovery.

Just look at Ifo Ekpre-Olomu last year. Regarded as a possible mid-late first pick that fell to the seventh because of his injury. It's a very risky pick that I hope Baalke won't make again
I drafted BAP and here's what I came up with:

7: R1P7
ILB REGGIE RAGLAND
ALABAMA

37: R2P6
OLB JAYLON SMITH
NOTRE DAME

68: R3P5
G CHRISTIAN WESTERMAN
ARIZONA STATE

106: R4P7
WR TYLER BOYD
PITTSBURGH

134: R4P35
RB DEVONTAE BOOKER
UTAH

143: R5P3
FB DAN VITALE
NORTHWESTERN

146: R5P6
DE VICTOR OCHI
STONY BROOK

175: R5P35
QB CHRISTIAN HACKENBERG
PENN STATE

179: R6P3
DE AZIZ s**tTU
STANFORD

208: R6P32
CB ADAIRIUS BARNES
LOUISIANA TECH

212: R6P36
DE ALEX MCCALISTER
FLORIDA

214: R6P38
C EVAN BOEHM
MISSOURI
Yeah, I play first-pick all the time. It's totally unrealistic, especially with the mania of the AI to trade up. You can accumulate dozens of picks. For instance:

Your score is: 9282 (GRADE: A)

Your Picks:
Round 1 Pick 12 (N.O.): DeForest Buckner, DE/DT, Oregon (A+)
Round 2 Pick 16 (N.O.): Emmanuel Ogbah, DE, Oklahoma State (A)
Round 2 Pick 17 (IND): Connor Cook, QB, Michigan State (A)
Round 2 Pick 21 (HOU): Derrick Henry, RB, Alabama (A+)
Round 3 Pick 5: Josh Doctson, WR, TCU (A+)
Round 3 Pick 10 (MIA): Will Fuller, WR, Notre Dame (A+)
Round 3 Pick 19 (IND): Hunter Henry, TE, Arkansas (A+)
Round 3 Pick 30 (CAR): Bronson Kaufusi, DE/OLB, Brigham Young (B+)
Round 4 Pick 7: John Theus, OT, Georgia (A+)
Round 4 Pick 21 (HOU): Kenyan Drake, RB, Alabama (A+)
Round 4 Pick 31 (CAR): Jerell Adams, TE, South Carolina (A+)
Round 4 Pick 35 (COMP): Aaron Burbridge, WR, Michigan State (A+)
Round 5 Pick 3: Bralon Addison, WR, Oregon (A+)
Round 5 Pick 6: Paul Perkins, RB, UCLA (A+)
Round 5 Pick 16 (IND): Roberto Aguayo, K, Florida State (B+)
Round 5 Pick 29 (CAR): Kevon Seymour, CB, Southern California (A+)
Round 5 Pick 35 (COMP): D.J. Reader, DT, Clemson (B)
Round 6 Pick 3: Morgan Burns, CB, Kansas State (A)
Round 6 Pick 32: Dan Vitale, FB, Northwestern (A+)
Round 6 Pick 36 (COMP): Keanu Neal, FS, Florida (A-)
Round 6 Pick 38 (COMP): De'Runnya Wilson, WR, Mississippi State (A)

And I only stopped trading because I fancied picking a few players.

Then, the scoring is totally bizarre. You can ace the first 5 rounds, but watch out if your depth pick in a position of need is rated "B-"... your score plummets almost as much as if you picked a punter rehabbing his ACL. Which brings me to my most recent "Baalke" draft there:

Your score is: 1250 (GRADE: F)

Round 1 Pick 7: Will Monday, P, Duke (F)
Round 2 Pick 6: Tom Hackett, P, Utah (D)
Round 3 Pick 5: Peter Mortell, P, Minnesota (F)
Round 4 Pick 7: Nick O'Toole, P, West Virginia (F)
Round 4 Pick 35 (COMP): Drew Kaser, P, Texas A&M (D-)
Round 5 Pick 3: Riley Dixon, P, Syracuse (F)
Round 5 Pick 6: Landon Foster, P, Kentucky (F)
Round 5 Pick 35 (COMP): Eric Enderson, P, Delaware (F)
Round 6 Pick 3: Jamie Keehn, P, LSU (F)
Round 6 Pick 32: Lachlan Edwards, P, Sam Houston State (D-)
Round 6 Pick 36 (COMP): Cory Carter, P, Texas Southern (F)
Round 6 Pick 38 (COMP): Cason Beatty, P, Florida State (F)

See? Totally unrealistic. 12 punters, and not one of them coming off an ACL.
