Final 2013 NFL Mock Draft

By: Steve Johnson and Mike Duncan

Less than 24 hours until the 2013 NFL Draft, here's our final Mock Draft. Now remember, we don't do trades in our Mocks, so there are certain players we have as first round grades but we don't see them going in this particular order. This draft might be the most shocking we have in years with not the top end talent of most drafts but a ton of first round grades throughout. In reality, there will probably be 3 or 4 Quarterbacks in the first round Thursday night (Geno Smith, Matt Barkley, Ryan Nassib and E.J. Manuel). We think these quarterbacks will go outside of the top 10, but as the order is now, not many of those teams need Quarterbacks. Watch for the Eagles, Jaguars, Cardinals, Bills and Jets to potentially either move back or trade back into the first round for their Quarterbacks if any fall.

Mock Draft 2.0 (Post Combine)

It's crazy how much can change after watching men take off the pads and run in tight shorts. Our #2 pick from Our 1st Mock Draft is no longer in our first round. Our #6 pick has fallen 11 picks to #17 because of a terrible combine and apparently even worse interviews. A guy we had as a fringe first round pick is now going #3 overall. With free agency just around the corner, and pro days from players that declined to work out, our next mock draft can be entirely different as well. But here's our mock 2.0....for now.
