SHRacerX Mock 9.0: Two trade backs in 2nd round...interesting choices left.

[*SHRacerX*]

Queen and Murray were long gone in the start of Rd 2, and I took two trades back to accumulate third round picks. Although I didn't get the LB I coveted, I still got the rangy Harrison and one of the two safeties I really love in Chinn (Dugger I like a bit more, but he was gone). The CB in Rd 2 might make people scratch their heads but he has great position flexibility and is a ball-hawk with a ludicrous number of passes defended in college.

Getting a guy like Kmet in Rd 3 may seem unrealistic, but he would be the steal of this draft. Trautman was too valuable to pass on in Rd 6. With Kmet, Trautman, and Sample, the Bengals are set at TE for years to come.

Round 1 Pick 1: Joe Burrow, QB, LSU (A)
Round 2 Pick 8 (HOU): Jeff Gladney, CB, TCU (A)
Round 3 Pick 1: Chase Claypool, WR, Notre Dame (A-)
Round 3 Pick 7 (LAC): Cole Kmet, TE, Notre Dame (A+)
Round 3 Pick 26 (HOU): Malik Harrison, ILB/OLB, Ohio State (A)
Round 4 Pick 1: Jeremy Chinn, FS/SS, Southern Illinois (B+)
Round 5 Pick 1: Damien Lewis, OG, LSU (B+)
Round 6 Pick 1: Adam Trautman, TE, Dayton (A+)
Round 7 Pick 1: Rodrigo Blankenship, K, Georgia (A+)
