Kage and the Seidkick's 2016 NFL Mock Draft


My best friend, Kevin Gregus, and I do a weekly podcast that you might want to check out (you can find that podcast on the right side of this blog or on iTunes - https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/kage-and-the-seidkick/id635443276?mt=2).  From that podcast sprung this mock draft. For the third consecutive year, we decided that a fun exercise would be to do a mock draft for the NFL where we alternate picks and then discuss our mock draft on the podcast.  Here is the third annual edition of the mock draft for your enjoyment and keep your eye out for the connecting podcast next week where we will discuss our mock and how it matched up with the actual draft.


The Rules
The rules are simple: The Seidkick had the first pick last year, so Kage will take the first pick this year.

In addition to the basic premise, we set guidelines for making our picks.  We are picking as we think the teams should and not as we think they will. This is a "if we were the GMs, this is our thinking" mock draft, not a "this is who we think that particular GM will pick" mock draft. That rule is simply because it's more fun to think of what a smart GM would do rather than to try to guess what moronic move the Browns will make this year.

Without further ado, our third annual mock draft!
