Copied!
Five years ago, the 2016 NFL Draft opened up with a pair of quarterbacks immediately coming off the board. The Rams reborn in Los Angeles used the No. 1 overall pick they d acquired in a trade with Tennessee to take the California kid, Jared Goff. Then the Eagles snagged Carson Wentz with the No. 2 pick they d received in a deal with the Browns. That s not exactly how things are going to play out in today s fantasy adventure .
Which brings me to a pair of preface points I want to make before we dive into this 2016 draft do-over:
1) I m incorporating some of the trades that occurred before/during the 2016 draft and conveniently erasing others from history. Yep, that s right. Deal with it. This is a fictional undertaking in the first place, so I make the rules!

GREEN BAY, Wis. – In hiring Joe Barry to be his defensive coordinator, Green Bay Packers coach Matt LaFleur made an unorthodox move to find the missing piece in building a championship-caliber defense.
At age 50, Barry is neither an up-and-comer in the profession nor an accomplished coordinator. In his four seasons running a defense, Barry’s units with the Detroit Lions and Washington Football Team never finished better than 28th in yards allowed, 23rd against the run or 25th against the pass, nor did it crack the top half of the league in scoring.
Barry didn’t hide from that fact during his introductory Zoom call with reporters on Tuesday.

Thelonious Monk and Kenny Clarke composed “Epistrophy” in 1941; Cootie Williams and his Orchestra first recorded the song in April 1942 under the title “Fly Right” and again in 1948, using the title “Epistrophy”, as the B side of Thelonious Monk’s single “In Walked Bud”. The word “epistrophe,” pronounced
ɛˈpɪstrəfi, refers to a literary device in which a word or phrase is repeated at the end of successive clauses or sentences. Clarke composed the primary theme, while Monk wrote the chords. This was the first song copyrighted by Thelonious Monk. “Epistrophy” appears on almost every live album recorded by Monk, as he used it as his closing tune for many years.
