Took a go at a mock draft

So I have seen a few people doing the fanspeak mock draft simulator and figured I'd give it a go. Some how managed to end up with my dream scenario.

I know many of you don't care for small school players but Basham and Rivers were both standouts at the senior bowl and the Panthers need to come away with at least one DE from this draft. Pocic is one of the top rated centers and has been Fournette's teammate for a few years. Would be a great pick in the 3rd. (realistically I would flip the Basham and Pocic picks) John Ross may be my favorite player in the draft. Instant starter at PR/KR and may be the fastest player in the draft. If Fournette isn't there at 8 I would love to trade down and take him later in the first.

8: R1P8
RB LEONARD FOURNETTE
LSU
40: R2P8
 
WR JOHN ROSS
WASHINGTON
72: R3P8
 
OBI MELIFONWU
UCONN
99: R3P35
 
EDGE TARELL BASHAM
OHIO
113: R4P8
 
ETHAN POCIC
LSU
153: R5P8
 
EDGE DEREK RIVERS
YOUNGSTOWN STATE
 

I love it !

    • Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.
    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
