Action Network

Accuracy: 12.02%242nd Place
The 2018 NFL season is officially over, so now it’s time to start looking at the incoming rookies and release the first Action Network mock draft. With the scouting combine (Feb. 26), we’ll get a lot of information that could change our perception of many players, but as of now this mock draft represents how we imagine the first round of the 2019 NFL Draft could unfold. This mock draft is primarily predictive but also a tad prescriptive. We’ve taken our best shot at anticipating which players teams will draft based on their various needs, but we also know that not all teams construct rosters in an optimal manner. While the first round of the draft is likely to see several trades, we haven’t built any trades into this mock draft. Given that we’re still almost full three months away from the event, trades are just too uncertain and difficult to project accurately.
