With the 2021 NFL Draft behind us, we can check the results of how the prominent mock drafts fared.

I was happy with the results of my 2021 NFL Mock Draft. Thanks to the outstanding reporting Charlie Campbell provides, as well as other extremely helpful sources of information, I was able to get 11 picks correct.

As you can see below, the NFL Draft is very difficult to predict, as evidenced by some of the low scores. This year, in particular, was difficult with our sources not having access to all of the information.

Here is how all of the prominent 2021 NFL Mock Drafts scored (if I’m missing someone’s mock, please e-mail me.) Keep in mind that we are scoring prospects to correct teams:
