Mel Kiper Jr., Todd McShay and Mike Mayock all released their final mock drafts on Thursday morning, hours before the 2018 NFL Draft . Whose final mock was the most accurate?
Only Kiper correctly predicted the Cleveland Browns would select Baker Mayfield with the first pick and the New York Jets would choose Sam Darnold . All three agreed on Saquon Barkley to the New York Giants but all three whiffed on the fourth pick, which the Browns used on Denzel Ward .
Kiper and McShay tied with four correct selections. All of McShay's correct picks came in the top 10, punctuated by his prediction that the Arizona Cardinals would trade up to No. 10 and select Josh Rosen . Mayock only hit on two picks.
