Jason La Canfora grades 32.0%

How a mock is scored. Every pick is worth up to 120 points, and a mock's score is the share of the points it was playing for, so a 32-pick first round and a full seven rounds compare directly.

64 pts

the player went at exactly that pick

32 pts

he went within three picks of it

32 pts

right player to the right team, wherever he actually landed

16 pts

right position to the team that was on the clock

8 pts

right order inside a position: the fourth quarterback is the fourth quarterback

Trades are not penalised. A pick is graded against whoever ended up making it, which is why "right position to the team on the clock" is a separate line from "right player to the right team." A mock only counts if its own page shows it was published before the first pick; anything filed after that is a recap. Positions come from the official draft listing, so every mock is graded on the same labels.

Two more numbers sit beside the grade and do not change it. First-rounders named is how many of the players in the mock went in round one at all, wherever the mock had them. Mania points is the same mock on the scale our Mock Draft Mania contest uses for fans: 1 point for a player who went in round one, 2 for a top-ten pick who went top ten, 3 for a top-five pick who went top five, 5 for the right team and 10 for the exact pick.
