How can something like this possibly happen?



Over the years I have literally done hundreds of mocks. But tonight I attempted to do the impossible. I attempted to get completely through a seven round NFL draft without drafting any players. That’s right- not one.
My only goal was to acquire as much 2022 draft capital as I could.
With that in mind, this is what transpired:


Eagles picks – 6, 37, 70, 85, 134, 140, 165, 198


Round 1 – trade #6 to WFT for 19 51 AND 2022 2nd rounder
Round 1 - trade #19 to LVR for 48 80 AND 2022 2nd rounder AND 3rd

Round 2 - trade #37 to HOU for 67 AND HOU 2nd AND LAR 4th
Round 2 - trade #51 to SEA for 56 AND SEA 3rd


I’m sorry. I have to stop here. I can’t finish this. It’s after 1:00AM and I’m exhausted.
Here’s the bottom line –
In all, I was able to acquire 31 2021 draft picks, of which I traded 26 of them in other deals. As far as 2022 goes, here is my haul:
WFT 2nd
LVR 2nd
HOU 2nd
BAL 2nd

LVR 3rd
SEA 3rd
HOU 3rd
ARI 3rd
ATL 3rd
IND 3rd
MIA 3rd
JAX 3rd

LAR 4th
BAL 4th
TB 4th
NYJ 4th
SEA 4th
DET 4th
TEN 4th
PIT 4th
NO 5th
LAR 5th

And here’s the part you will not believe, This is only up to pick 126 in the fourth round. I got called away from the computer and my mock timed out. I still had picks 127, 128, 129, and 139 left on the board. I never thought that anything like this was remotely possible, BUT, there it is. I really like PFN’s simulator. It’s realistic and easy to use. What a night. Gotta hit the hay.
