Yesterday Mostly Sports held the inaugural 2024 Indy(Indie sp?
).500 Club Draft.
The rules are simple.
New draft order was chosen at the beginning of each round via virtual horse race.
Have zero read on his draft.GRADE ?
EBO KNOWS - Pick #17
DENVER BRONCOS
0.15 TPS
Was certain Ebo would go with the Bills here.
Chicago BearsRD2, PK9.
Los Angeles ChargersRD3, PK14.
Baltimore RavensRD4, PK18.
He had a plan going in and executed it to perfection.
Brandon Walker - Grade B+
RD1, PK2.
Indianapolis ColtsRD2, PK8.
Atlanta FalconsRD3, PK12.
Cleveland BrownsRD4, PK19.
I would have liked to see another true middle in RD 4.
Things could get a little dicey depending on how the season shakes out.
But overall I expect Brandon to finish out with a mediocre record.
Connor Griffin - Grade B-
RD1, PK3.
New England PatriotsRD2, PK7.
San Francisco 49ersRD3, PK11.
Kansas City ChiefsRD4, PK20.
Carolina Panthers
Expected Ties:0Team Record Volatility:2.5 ‘sREALProjected Record:35-33
A high-low draft through and through.
But there is no getting around the fact that he boxed himself in.
T.J. Hitchings - Grade D+
RD1, PK4.
Los Angeles RamsRD2, PK6, Pittsburgh SteelersRD3, PK15.
Seattle SeahawksRD4, PK16.
Cincinnati Bengals
Expected Ties:0Team Record Volatility:3.5 ‘sREALProjected Record:36-32
Certainly the most confusing draft of the bunch.
Part of me wonders if T.J. wasn’t taking this 100% seriously.
Ebo Knows - Grade F-
RD1, PK5.
New Orleans SaintsRD2, PK10.
Tampa Bay BuccaneersRD3, PK13.
Las Vegas RaidersRD4, PK17.
I don’t see a world where Ebo finishes anywhere near .500.
I predict 500 bad things in Ebo’s future.
Final Thoughts
Was very clear who came into this draft with a plan and who did not.
If it weren’t for Connor’s Mr.
Irrelevant pick of the Washington Commanders, the entire NFC East would have been left off the table.
Surprised the Bills were left off the table.
A predictable 2 horse team like the Bills would have had plenty of strong pairings on the low end.
It is mathematically possible for every team to finish with an 8-9 or 9-8 record.
