Upcoming Match-ups

The last couple of months for football fans have been spent listening to NFL Draft analysts project this player to that team, rank this player above that player, and all the ridiculous rumors to go with each team. But how often do we completely agree with everything we’re hearing?

Assuming you answered anything but “I agree with every mock draft I read”, here’s your opportunity to put your GM cap on and show the world who the real NFL Draft guru is.

Print off our First-Round Mock Draft page and take on all those who consider themselves football fans.

How to Play?

We have provided you with the team who currently holds picks 1-32, but we wanted to give you the opportunity to show off your knowledge of potential draft trades that may occur. So fill in the team you believe will select at each pick, along with the player that team will select.

Official Contest Scoring

Here is how points are awarded:

  • 4 points for having the correct player in the draft slot, plus a bonus point for having the correct team picking in that slot

For example, if you mock Penn State RB Saquon Barkley to the New York Giants at no. 2, and Barkley is selected at no. 2, but it’s by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, you would receive 4 points. If Barkley does go no. 2 and it is to the Giants, you receive 5 points.

  • 2 points for having a player one slot away from where they were picked

For example, if you mock Wyoming QB Josh Allen third-overall, but he is selected no. 4 or no. 2, you would receive 2 points. There is no bonus point for the correct team unless you have the player in the correct slot.

  • 1 point for having a player two slots away from where they were picked

For example, if you have FSU safety Derwin James going no. 7, but he actually goes fifth or ninth-overall, you still receive 1 point. Again, the bonus point for the correct team only applies if you have the player in the correct slot.
