NFL mock drafts are fun and all for the fans to read about but rarely do they incorporate a specific team General Manager’s drafting history. Experts simply look at a team’s need and plug in a player that is available at that draft slot. That could be why these “experts” do a poor job on picking who goes where in the NFL Draft.
Tom Telesco has been the Chargers GM for 4 years now. That means he has 4 NFL Drafts under his belt. That is an adequate sample size to understand his tendencies to make a determination where he will go in this year’s draft.
