START DATE AND TIME: Monday, March 23rd, noon central
RULES:
Spoiler!
1. 12 hours for each pick. Unless it's on the weekends.....then your clock can go **** itself.
2. Make sure that you have PMs turned on. After you make your selection, PM the next person up to let them know that they're on the clock. If you know that you aren't going to be on and able to make your selection, PM a list of your desired picks (in the order you want them) to someone else. You can send those to me, or some other poster you trust. Make sure the person who selects before you knows who to alert when your team is on the clock. If you miss your pick, you will be skipped and you'll have to make your pick as soon as you can. If you miss two consecutive picks, you lose your teams.
3. Format your selections as such: *Insert team name* selects Player Name, POS, School. Make sure they are bolded so that people can see them. You can add pictures and explanations if you'd like but they aren't required.
4. Do a search of the thread before you pick to make sure that the player hasn't been selected. If you pick a player that has already been drafted, you face the wrath of the entire thread and you'll have to correct it. So don't make a pick and then leave for 14 hours. Stick around and make sure that you didn't **** up.
5. I and everybody else who help operate this mock try to keep up on NFL offseason news while the draft is in session. We input the comp picks, and we're usually good about adjusting the order for any blockbuster trades that may occur where the previously made picks aren't affected, but sometimes we miss things. It may be a good idea to keep up-to-date on your team's offseason moves regarding their supply of draft picks and let us know if stuff comes up so we can make the changes to the draft order. No, in the end, the true order will likely not be 100% perfect or accurate, but shit happens when you do mocks a month before a draft starts.

I think history will end up viewing that as a good move once Geno learns the system. [Reply]
After taking a longer look it’s better than I thought. There are exactly 3 guys on my board for 32, 2 of which will probably be gone. After that there are another 2-3 guys I’m alright with taking at 32, but would prefer to trade down.
Kind of goes to show you that while a trade down is difficult, there aren’t many scenarios where there’s not going to be a guy you’d be happy with at 32 ( at least for me).
I think we’re going to be stuck at 32 taking BPA, which isn’t so bad. [Reply]
As a guy that came up and then died in Seattle it is my honor to introduce the Seattle Seahawks 2020 first round pick.
Terrell Lewis, EDGE, Alabama [Reply]
Getting REEEALLY tired of drafting phenomenal weapons for Rodgers year after year in the 1st and 2nd rounds only for the Packers to give me a giant middle finger and go after the unsexy positions. How's that going for you, Green Bay? You're satisfied with your work? Everything was gravy last year with that Lizard guy, eh? And the dude named Alison as the #2 was totally awesome, wasn't it? Maybe I should draft a WR named Sarah to line up in the slot!
Well, I'm not going to do that. But I AM going to shoot for the moon and take this boom/bust guy.
The Green Bay Packers select Laviska Shenault Jr., WR, Colorado [Reply]
(Oh, god. It's coming up. The pick is coming up. The Chiefs are Super Bowl champions. I can't do this. Why did I agree to do this? This is crazy. I'm not a draft expert. I'm just a guy. People will make fun of my pick and wonder if I've ever watched a football game. They'll call me Mel Kiper or something. Why am I doing this? I don't need this pressure. I can make a safe pick, I guess, but what's a safe pick? People are all over the board with who they want. And it's the 32nd pick. It's the lowest first-round pick the Chiefs have ever had. It's hard to find a superstar with the 32nd pick. And three years ago that guy had the 27th pick and he picked Patrick Mahomes. At 27! Not even at 10. At 27! I can't compete with that. Maybe I should go hide for a while. Someone else will make the pick and then I can pretend that I forgot. Yeah, maybe I can do that. But no. That's not the Chief way of doing things. Patrick Mahomes is on my team. I can't let him down. I'll make the pick. I'll pick someone really good. I can do this. I can succeed. I can make the Super Bowl champions even better. I've got this. I don't care if people ridicule me. I know in my heart how best to help the Chiefs, and I'll do it regardless of skepticism. That's how Brett Veach does it. I'll channel my inner Brett Veach, and I'll make a bold move and it'll pay off. Why? Because Chiefs, that's why.

Candidate A. Safe pick, highly regarded. We have a decent starter at his position, but depth is thin and he would likely take the starting spot. Enough players in the draft that we could get a good one in Round 2, most likely.
Candidate B. Same position as Candidate A. Generally rated a little lower, but I love how the guy would fit in with our team. I would be ridiculed for taking this guy, but history would prove me right.
Candidate C. Pretty highly ranked guy that I really like, but at a position of very low need. Luxury pick.
Candidate D. Position where we could definitely use an upgrade. This guy is lower ranked than most of the other candidates, but there's a big dropoff after him in the draft. If I don't take him, we don't get the position filled in 2020.
Candidate E. Highly ranked candidate. Safe pick. Consensus is that we need help at the position, though I believe that less than many others.
Candidate F. Same position as Candidate E. Not as highly ranked, but I like him a bit more.
Final discussions are occurring in the draft room. [Reply]
