Mock Draft & Prop Bets

It's been a full year since there was any activity here at TSB. If you are reading this, thank you times a million for your loyalty.

First, let's get a few things out of the way related to the Jets. 

1. Thank God Gase is gone.

2. I've spent the last five months talking myself into Zach Wilson being better than Trevor Lawrence. I'm almost there.

3. My dream scenario would be Wilson at 2, Ole Miss WR Elijah Moore or Minnesota WR Rashod Bateman at 23, and Oklahoma State OT Teven Jenkins at 34. Prayers Up.

Next, let's bang out a mock trade:

Dallas trades Amari Cooper and a fourth round pick to Baltimore for the 31st pick. This gives the Ravens the #1 WR they have coveted for years. It also lets the Cowboys take the best WR available at #10 (Davonta Smith?) and then focus on cornerback late in the first round where the value would be much more reasonable. 

It also wouldn't shock me if the Raiders traded up for Trey Lance or Justin Fields if they fell towards the teens.

2. New York Jets - Zach Wilson

3. San Francisco 49ers (from Miami Dolphins via Houston Texans) - Trey Lance

6. Miami Dolphins (from Philadelphia Eagles) - Jaylen Waddle

7. Detroit Lions - Justin Fields

11. New York Giants - Rashawn Slater

12. Philadelphia Eagles (from Miami Dolphins via San Francisco 49ers) - Patrick Surtain II
