Mister Defense Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 I looked a little online but cannot find any mock draft evaluations from last year or the year before. Looking for first round, but any other rounds in addition. I just want to know whose picks were closest to the actual picks. I assume mock drafts are mostly inaccurate, but want to know which were the closest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 According to Astro on twitter, Matt Miller won last year just beating out draftek. But I don’t know if they are going by 1st round only or full mock 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjt328 Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 Mock drafts are fun, but nobody is remotely close to accurate anymore. One trade at the top completely destroys everything after. And the last few years, pretty much every draft has seen multiple trades within the Top 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe it came out somewhere after the draft that the Bills did have a deal with the Broncos, but it was contingent on Denver's "guy" not being available. That guy was Bradley Chubb, obviously, since Denver stayed at 5 and also many expected Cleveland to take him, not Ward, at 4. The Bills obviously knew Allen wasn't going #6 to the Colts, so 7 was the new target Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year was easily my worst since 2013. I had 4 exactly right and 11 teams with the correct position, but wrong player. 2017 I had 8 exactly right and 17 correct positions, 2016 I had 6 and 18, 2015 I had 10 exactly right with a ridiculous 19 correct team position selections - my best year by far. EDIT: This was probably more impressive than my actual draft, considering we selected both and I posted it prior to our opening weekend against WVU.

Really the winner is how well you pick the 24- 32 draft picks. But I haven't seen any other scoring system. I would like to see it approached from a "big board". Something like 3 points for hitting the draft slot, 2 points for being +/-2 slots and 1 point for being +/- 4 slots. Also do that for the first 3 rounds of the actual draft.
