Fan Mock v. 3.0 (FINAL)

There has been a lot of movement in the mock drafts in the last 24 hours, as reflected in the Mocktopus's "Final" Fan Mock (subject to last minute editing if the mocks are also further edited).

This is a draft where using "doubles" could potentially pay off.  For example, a trade into the first round, the mocks agree that Geno Smith will likely go to the Browns, Bills, or Jets.  The Mocktopus' Fan Mock can hedge its bets by mocking Geno multiple places in the hopes that it can get one of those picks right.  Dion Jordan and Dee Milliner continue to be hard players to mock.  The Mocktopus thinks that they are both strong second or third choices for a number of teams in the early to mid first round.

One interesting trend is the near consensus that Lane Johnson will go to the Eagles, which is remarkable, because almost no one was of that opinion twenty four hours ago.  Presently, the Mocktopus's picks made with the most confidence are Sharrif Floyd to the Raiders, Barkevious Mingo to the Jets, and Lane Johnson to the Eagles.

UPDATE: There are some small changes based on the late mocks, most notably Barkley's ascension to number eight.
