The Random Mock Draft

Every year by the time Draft Day comes, most experts think they have the Draft pegged.  But every year good players fall and teams make selections that no one sees coming.  To try to replicate that surprise factor, we are going to do a random mock draft where 4 players will be available to each team based on need, and then the selection will be drawn randomly.   Let’s see what happens.
