Is Rome Odunze Falling?

[chknwing]

I routinely play around with the mock draft simulators but have noticed recently that hes been available at #33.

Should have titled thread, "Is Rome Falling?" 

I have been playing around too, and i have not seen him falling.  I have seen him as the #3 WR off the board.

[CamWhoaaCam]

Nope in reality he's still going to be a top 3 WR off the board.

 

Draft simulators are not reality. 

[Ricky Spanish]

No he is not. He is very good and will not be available when we pick.

BTJ is more likely to fall, and even that possibility of him being available at 33 is next to non-existent.

I would expect Sweat to fall to round 3 

[chknwing]

this was the 1st round

They go through weird phases like that. You'll see guys like Brock Bowers going in the top 3 one moment And then you've got him available at 33 the next time and then he's back in top 5.

I try not to take it as exact players when I mock, even though there's guys I prefer over others. I think it's more about positions that would be available at that moment.

But the draft itself in reality is really wonky because there's guys that you and everyone are sure are going to go early who inexplicably fall and then there's others that go much earlier than all the experts go.

You never know what really any team has in mind when they go into the draft and you can't predict what they will do when their board changes.

Maybe teams see a player fall that they were sure would have gone earlier all of a sudden fall a bit below where you thought they would go and then think maybe other teams passing them by know something you don't so you pass them as well. So many reasons for players falling where you think they shouldn't.

We think we know where players should go, but we don't know how individual teams actually perceive players that we mock to them.

So basically, as crazy as it is to see Rome there, it's good to see stuff like that happen because it prepares you for the actual craziness of draft day.

No. Taking in to account a  sampling of mocks and big boards he's ad high as he'd ever been.

No one is falling right now, nor rising.  Thats all sports media.  Team boards have been set for a while now but youre going to hear all kinds of changes reported because thats what sports media has to do.   Odunze is clearly locked in at wr #3 at worst.  Nabers is the one the media is actually trying to push down right now "leaking" a lot of stuff about teams having character concerns.

Yeah that's the weird thing to me. What can these guys possibly do to raise or lower their "stock"?

It's all completely speculative in behalf of the draftniks who all feed off each other's takes.
