Thank you to everyone who participated in my little rookie mock draft experiment. Hopefully you gained something from participating (information, analysis of your team-building preferences, relief when DeVonta Smith was finally taken)
I don't think the names are going to change much barring a big surprise (reach/drop due to injury). The draft positions will likely switch a spot or two. If you care to speculate on the final 3 picks of round 1, feel free to add them to the comments. Likewise if you think anyone listed is a bargain/reach or who has the best chance to climb or fall the most.
Here are the final results. I will update with the actual picks once the rookie draft is completed so we can see how close we came. Cheers.

Re: Wisdom of the Crowd Rookie Mock (Pre-Draft) - Final Results
This was a fun one! I know it was a good bit of work for you, but I wouldn’t mind seeing how this would change after the draft knowing landing spots.

Re: Wisdom of the Crowd Rookie Mock (Pre-Draft) - Final Results
Thanks for the info.
I’d go Waddle next myself. I’m also interested to see a 2nd Round.
I cleaned up Last year in 2nd Rd ( Higgins, Aiyuk, Claypool, Shenault) Gibson & Tua were 2nd too. Herbert 3rd. Who fills that role this year?

Re: Wisdom of the Crowd Rookie Mock (Pre-Draft) - Final Results **Actual Draft Update**
Here are the results of the league draft that was used in the polls. There were a couple of trades so I noted which teams selected where if you were interested in seeing the rosters in the links of the initial post.
9 out of the first 10 players were identified pre-draft with only Devonta Smith dropping to 11 and Mac Jones jumping into the top 10.
Biggest risers - Kyle Pitts (1.10 to 1.04), Trey Lance (1.06 to 1.02), Mac Jones (1.12+ to 1.08),
Biggest fallers - None really. All of these players dropped 2 spots (Wilson, Harris, Chase, Etienne, Williams, Smith)
Pretty chalky top 10. Don't think the landing spots affected any of the top prospects negatively. After 10, it's WR, WR and more WR. The first 2 picks of roud 2 are also WR.
1.01 - Trevor Lawrence
1.02 - Trey Lance
1.03 - Justin Fields
1.04 - Kyle Pitts (see selecting team with 1.06 pre-draft)
1.05 - Zach Wilson
1.06 - Najee Harris
1.07 - Ja'Marr Chase
1.08 - Mac Jones
1.09 - Travis Etienne
1.10 - Javonte Williams
1.11 - Devonta Smith
1.12 - Jaylen Waddle (see selecting team with 1.04 pre-draft)
1.13 - Rondale Moore
1.14 - Elijah Moore
