No mention of a SIM.  Just a straight up mock draft with you selecting picks by "prioritizing them with similar grade talent".  And this mock was a full month AFTER Brooks  "shot up the boards" with his combine results.

It is CLEARLY a SIM.  Notice the grades by the draft site?  I don't waste time with "I'm selecting all first round picks in seven rounds".  Not realistic.  It was a SIM making him a steal in Rd 4.  And the evaluations that were done for the SIMs were (as previously stated) done months before the combine.  And I didn't call him a fourth rounder.  I selected him in the fourth (first pick of the fourth) because I couldn't pass him up after addressing the QB, WR, and offensive line.  I didn't see the need for a LB to be drafted before Rd 3 given the addition of Bynes and the ascension of Pratt.  I also am unsure if we had even lost Vigil at this point.  Get it yet?

Oh, and Burrow went #1 overall.  That was easy.

Denzel Mims went late in the 2nd round (#59 overall)

Robert Hunt went pick 39 of Rd 2,  and I had us taking him at the top of Rd 3 (because he was still available in the SIM) at pick 65

Tanner Muse went at pick #100 in Rd 4, and I had us taking him at pick 147 in Rd 5

Stephen Sullivan was drafted in Rd 7 by the Seahawks (trading with Miami for that pick) #251 overall and I had us taking him at #180 in Rd 6

James Smith-Williams was drafted by the Redskins in Rd 7 at # 229 overall and I had the Bengals taking him at #215 overall in Rd 7.

Doesn't look like my evaluations were that far off...
