2026 Mock Draft by Position

Mock Draft Simulator With Trades

Our mock draft simulator features a full trade engine powered by the Jimmy Johnson and Rich Hill value charts. Trade up to grab your guy, trade down to stockpile picks, or make complex multi-pick deals with any of the 31 AI GMs. The AI evaluates every trade proposal for fairness and will counter-offer when a deal is close. You can trade at any point during the draft, including trading future picks.

Mock Draft Simulator With Grades

Every pick in our mock draft simulator receives an instant letter grade from A+ to F. Grades are calculated based on three factors: prospect value relative to draft position, team need at the position, and positional scarcity in the remaining prospect pool. After completing your draft, you get an overall draft grade with a breakdown of your best and worst picks.
