The mock draft is moving along into the bottom portion of the first round today, and this is where things start to unravel from our safe predictions.
I’ve been using Bob McKenzie’s draft list as a guide, and as pick 15 disappears into the past, the usefulness of that list wanes a little. Individual opinions on who is the best choice become more varied, and the pool of players any one GM might be willing to take gets bigger.
The story so far:
This section of the draft is where you see more picks traded, and with New Jersey having three first rounders, there is a very good chance they use one of them to make some kind of trade, and the two that aren’t their original pick, the 18th and 20th are the ones more likely to be moved.
