Fake Teams

April is here which means it is officially NFL draft month! And since it’s officially NFL draft month, I thought it was about time to drop my first mock draft of the year. (Side note: I thought about doing this last week but I’m glad I didn’t since we then saw the San Francisco 49ers trade up to snag the no. 3 overall pick from the Miami Dolphins—but don’t worry, Jimmy Garoppolo is still their guy—and then the Dolphins trade back up to no. 6 overall with the Philadelphia Eagles. Now my mock can reflect that trade!) As this is my first mock of the year, it’s going to be a very basic one: no trades and likely no real wow picks. I like to just go pretty conservative in my first mock to get a lay of the land. Then stay tuned for later mocks when I decide to just get wet, wild, and crazy with it.
