With the scouting combine in the rearview mirror and free agency approaching, it’s time for one final mock draft for this phase of the offseason. Things will change again as teams begin to fill their 53-man roster with veterans. The main difference between the NFL and the NBA is seen in this process. While the basketball league looks for teams that will fill their rosters with young talent first, the NFL is committed to filling holes with veterans before the youngsters get a chance in the league.
In this three-round exercise based on team needs before adding veterans; There are several perfect fits. Trades were allowed, and with so many teams missing first-round picks this year, Day 2 was just as interesting as Day 1. Here’s a look at each team’s trades and draft hauls.
