NFL Mock Draft with the Boys

Synopsis: 


     For this rendition of the 2020 NFL Mock Draft, a few friends and I were each assigned four or five teams. The goal was to take on the role of those teams’ general managers and draft realistically based on each teams’ needs. We decided to do a 2 round mock draft. We used The Draft Network to help us identify team needs and used CBS Sports for a list of the best prospects in each position. The kicker was that we were all competing against each other for the best players available - like in a real draft - which made the draft more fun. Overall, it was an interesting exercise. A HUGE thanks to Ethan Sherwood, Elliott Coleman, Nick St. Denis, Aiden Coyle, Manbeer Clair, and David Denis for their outstanding work contributing to this piece! Without further ado, let’s get started.
