TDN Big Board | Pre Draft Connections

Looks good if that's what it turns out to be. I'd like to see TE come out of no later than the 3rd round. Probably needs to be a QB somewhere in there.

Would actually be a pretty solid draft.

Right? I was pretty surprised on the value still there. With a 180 connections, there's lots to choose from. Although in this case, I simply went with the highest rated on the board.

It was cool that we still ended up meeting all our top needs too.

Now the only question is if the FO's Big Board is close to TDN's.

I've ranked all of these 180 prospects based on The Draft Network's Big Board.

Using the draft simulator, I simply took the highest ranked player still available on TDN's Big Board that the FO had a connection with.

Here were the results:

POS - Rank - Player
WR 62 Xavier Hutchinson
ER 67 Byron Young
T 68 Matthew Bergeron
CB 84 Kei'Trel Clark
WR 94 Ronnie Bell
CB 106 Rejzohn Wright
DT 119 Jerrod Clark
T 121 Nick Saldiveri
S 127 Mekhi Blackmon
CB 135 Darell Luter Jr.
LB 138 Marte Mapu

Would love it if we were able to throw in a TE somewhere, swap one of the WR's or CB's for one and were looking real nice.

Oh for sure. And a PK. The simulations sure point to getting top value throughout the draft here despite starting at 99. Stay pat. Go BPA and eventually you'll hit on all your team needs.

great idea NC me like it

I'd be stoked if we landed Young, Bergeron, and another corner with a bit of size. Throw in a TE and a kicker from Michigan or Maryland and it would be an excellent draft.

Totally agreed. TDN just updated their 425 player big board.

I'll do another one (BPA per our player connections only) and see how it ends up in here.
