I’ve check several top 150 lists & not one mention of someone we traded up for.
Yuck.

Please. If I recall your screen name correctly, you're not one of the many dozens of reeruns here ... but this is a straight reerun take. The only thing internet draft lists have been good for since they became a thing is whiffing. Every. Single. Year. Without fail.
The worst thing is, they're all shitty copies of each other. If Mayock and 1 or 2 other dudes had Derwin James at 15 or so, every other POS ranking would, too. And then guess what? Suddenly he's not the steal of the century. In reality, the NFL unanimously grades him the same (i.e. no one takes him top 10, and no one trades up when he starts sliding).
I used to get so hyped or angry about draft picks. Then I realized this shit is a ****ing lottery -- and that's from the guys who actually know what they're doing. The talking heads and internet nerds? Well that's just pure fiction. All these people pretending they have ANY clue who's good or not is hilarious. Especially judging interior OL or similar. That's always been the funniest. "Yeah man, I've totally spent 100 hours studying this Northern Iowa 6th round center prospect. He's such a steal man, yeah."
