2009 NFL Preseason Mock Draft 08/28/09

August 28th, 2009 · 1 Comment

While Mock Drafts are a great tool for preparing yourself for draft day, they are not without flaw.

We noticed one major thing during our mock drafts over the past couple of months. Spaces that are not filled or drafts that have players leave before the end of the draft really mess with the Average Draft Position (ADP) rankings. Defense and Place Kickers always go a lot sooner and in greater quantities than they will on Draft Day as well.

With that in mind we have taken the ADP from several sites, re-ranked the Defense and Place Kickers and did the following Mock Draft on our own. It is based on the WCOFF PPR scoring system.

A couple of things you will notice is that a lot of teams tried to back up their Running Backs, most drafted two Quarterbacks and no one backed up their Place Kicker or Defense. This is a strategy we strongly support on Draft Day.

I am surprised that a guy with 15tds and over 1000yrds rushing fell so far. Also a number 1 qb one of the last picks.
