More trade scenarios than you wanted to know:

[purplefaithful]

I was on espn’s draft simulator, took 2hrs 
Coming up with one I liked.  Traded down 4 spots with chargers.

22. DT/Edge Keldric Faulk
49. LB  Jacob Rodriguez
82. S  Treydan Stukes
86. C Logan Jones (pick from Chargers)
97. RB Mike Washington Jr
(Tough gap to wait here)
163. WR Colbie Young
196. DT Cameron Ball
234. OG Anaz Cooper
235. TE Lake McRee
244. QB Haynes King

Addicting stuff! 
Toughest position to line up was a TE that matched the spot.

Applause for the trade-down

I really like the top 4 from a needs perspective and adding Rodriguez at 49 would be a wonderful haul...The D could use a youth infusion and depth..Would be hard for me to wait till 97 for a RB, but few would argue C is not a need as wel. 

Glad we have 11 picks, but man this is the first year I am really noticing how poor drafting has put the team in a bit of a tough spot.

Knew you were a Rodriguez fan, and we agree after diving into him myself.  
Stukes is the only S that would make me ok with missing Thieneman (sp?) at 18.

Edit: those interactive mocks, the wait between pick 97 and 163 was brutal. Some solids in that group. I’d love to see a packaging of 163 & 196 up a bit.

Love J Rod and Stukes. Stukes actually had a lot of snaps at Slot, more than safety, so I’m not sure he’s really a Thieneman substitute. Definitely has the size to play either.
