Everybody seems to have gravitated to the Fanspeak simulator this year, but I prefer this one: http://www.first-pick.com/NFL/DraftGame.aspx that was all the rage last year because it allows trades, and scores the picks and your entire draft. My first run with only one trade down:

Your score is: 4851 (Drafting Ability: A-, Player Quality A-, Future Draft Picks: N/A)

Your Picks:
Round 1 Pick 25 (S.D.): Jace Amaro, TE, Texas Tech (B+)
Round 2 Pick 18: Aaron Donald, DT, Pittsburgh (A)
Round 2 Pick 25 (S.D.): Antonio Richardson, OT, Tennessee (A)
Round 3 Pick 17: Bishop Sankey, RB, Washington (A)
Round 4 Pick 16: Brandon Thomas, OG, Clemson (B+)
Round 5 Pick 15: Aaron Murray, QB, Georgia (A)
Round 6 Pick 14: Bennett Jackson, CB, Notre Dame (A)
Round 7 Pick 19: Jeff Janis, WR, Saginaw Valley (A)
 
Pretty cool....here is my first run at it. I traded down several times to acquire the extra picks.

Round 1 Pick 27 (N.O.): Timmy Jernigan, DT, Florida State (A)
Round 2 Pick 19 (CHI): Aaron Donald, DT, Pittsburgh (A)
Round 2 Pick 22 (PHI): Carlos Hyde, RB, Ohio State (B+)
Round 2 Pick 31 (DEN): Billy Turner, OT, North Dakota State (B+)
Round 3 Pick 17: Craig Loston, SS, LSU (B+)
Round 3 Pick 18 (CHI): Terrance Mitchell, CB, Oregon (B)
Round 3 Pick 20 (ARI): Brandon Thomas, OG, Clemson (C+)
Round 3 Pick 23 (K.C.): Jared Abbrederis, WR, Wisconsin (B+)
Round 4 Pick 16: Lache Seastrunk, RB, Baylor (A)
Round 5 Pick 15: Walt Aikens, CB, Liberty (D+)
Round 6 Pick 14: Spencer Long, OG, Nebraska (D-)
Round 7 Pick 19: Aaron Colvin, CB, Oklahoma (D+)
 
See, that's the problem I have with that simulator. You get trade offers all over the place. I've run it and had something like 15 picks. There is simply no real scenario where you end up with BlueFin's draft, as awesome as it may be.
 
But you can run it and just not take trades. In at least one way I feel this simulator is more accurate than the other one. The offensive tackles fly off the board in a hurry. It's been that way in the NFL for a few years now.
 
I am addicted to this though it is completely unrealistic and I prefer it to the fanspeak one as well. I do agree that it is rificulously easy to trade down but impossible to trade up.

Round 1 Pick 26 (CLE): Calvin Pryor, FS, Louisville (A)
Round 2 Pick 21 (G.B.): Aaron Donald, DT, Pittsburgh (A)
Round 3 Pick 4 (ATL): Troy Niklas, TE, Notre Dame (A)
Round 3 Pick 12 (DET): Tre Mason, RB, Auburn (A)
Round 3 Pick 17: Martavis Bryant, WR, Clemson (A)
Round 3 Pick 19 (CLE): Stanley Jean-Baptiste, CB, Nebraska (A-)
Round 4 Pick 3 (ATL): Marcus Martin, C, Southern California (A)
Round 5 Pick 7 (ATL): Michael Schofield, OT, Michigan (B+)
Round 6 Pick 6 (ATL): Cameron Fleming, OT, Stanford (C+)
Round 7 Pick 19: Cassius Marsh, DE, UCLA (A)

It is addicting. IMHO it's off on it's evaluation of Donald though pretty badly. I keep ending up getting him in the 2nd round too, and I'm not even sure he will still be around when we pick in the first. I think he will end up being one of the elite players to come out of this draft.

I agree, the evaluations are off on many players and especially Donald. I love how they give "C" grades for 7th rounders. Its a 7th rounder for Gods sake, Haha
