Fake Teams Mock Draft: Rounds 1-4

Gary A. Vasquez-USA TODAY Sports

The day is finally upon us! We are officially starting our mock draft! Get excited people. There's seriously no better way to spend the next four days. I promise.

As I said in the announcement, this is a 20 round, snake draft and I ask that everyone make their picks within 8 hours of the last pick made. If the time runs out and a pick has not been made, I'll make the selection for you based solely on Garrett's 250 players. But that's clearly not as much fun as being able to make a pick so please get your picks in on time.

This is thread for Rounds 1-4. I will be posting these as fan posts and front paging them so all of our readers can read them and offer their thoughts on each pick.

I will post four comments (Round 1, Round 2, Round 3, Round 4) that we will use for each round. Someone please rec it so it appears in green and stands out for all of our readers to view. I will then make sure to rec all the picks as well so they can also be easily found.

With all that taken care of, here are your participants this draft:

  3. Matbrekk

I have created a Google Spreadsheet where you guys can update with the picks you've made (also an easy way to keep track of what positions you've addressed).
