How each call scored
4 checkable claims — 4 mock draft picks — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call.
It names 4 players and teams, each linked to their own record.
None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in.
Each call is scored 0 to 100 against what happened, on its own, by the published methodology. The naive guess is what knowing nothing would have scored on the same calls; the gap, weighted by how hard the call was, is the skill.

Thomas Martinez · Mock Draft Picks · Leonard Moore · Miss 0
In a Chargers mailbag, Martinez projects Ohio State WR Jeremiah Smith as the likely No. 1 overall pick in the 2027 draft and Notre Dame CB Leonard Moore as a potential No. 2 overall selection, while viewing Oregon TE Jamari Johnson as a possible first-round prospect whose range may slip toward the early second.Gilberto Manzano · Mock Draft Picks · C.J. Carr · Waiting
Manzano laid out a mini mock of the first round for clubs holding multiple picks, projecting Jeremiah Smith first overall and placing quarterbacks, edge rushers and corners with the Titans, Dolphins, Jets, Eagles and Browns. Manzano also pegged CJ Carr to go no later than No. 9 and tabbed two Kentucky linemen as top-60 prospects.Nick Faria · Position Order Calls · C.J. Carr · Waiting
Faria projects the Jets to hold multiple top-10 picks in the 2027 draft (including No. 4 via Indianapolis), and names Oklahoma State's Drew Mestemaker as the first quarterback off the board with Notre Dame's C.J. Carr second; they also call Texas edge Colin Simmons a lock for the top five.

Evaluating edge rusher Kyle Kennard ahead of the draft, the account projected them as a Day 2 selection.Blaine Grisak · Mock Draft Picks · Brian Thomas Jr. · Hit 84
Grisak argues the Rams should not trade a second-round pick for Jaguars receiver Brian Thomas Jr., calling it too great a risk and too high a cost. In an embedded tweet of their own from the 2024 pre-draft period, they suggested the Rams could select Thomas at pick No. 19.Rob Rang · Mock Draft Picks · Malachi Corley · Miss 24
Rang updated their quarterback board for the 2027 NFL Draft, moving Ole Miss's Trinidad Chambliss to No. 1 ahead of Dante Moore and Arch Manning, and sorting the 14 QBs into first-round, Day 2 and Day 3 tiers. They also project Jeremiah Smith as the No. 1 overall pick and says Manning would be a first-round pick if eligible.
