Rock out with your Mock Draft out: Mel Kiper’s NFL Mock Draft

The NFL Draft world continues to spin as does the revolving door of Mock Drafts. ESPN’s Mel Kiper has released his latest Mock Draft and this time he covers 3 rounds. Kiper has been the go to draft guru for many fans but other experts have started to chip away at this monopoly. Kiper’s mock can be found HERE but as usual it is protected by ESPN Insider.

It appears that Cam Newton has taken over as the most predicted #1 overall selection and Kiper agrees with the masses. The rest of his to 10 looks pretty basic with little surprises. However, he seems to have jumped on the Da'Quan Bowers out of the top 10 bandwagon. I did an article HERE where I stated that if Bowers falls out of the top 6 he will be a draft day steal.

Please be sure to continue stopping in at Mocking the Draft as we will have continuous mock drafts posted. You can check out how our mocks stack up against the rest of the draft covering world.
