2016 NFL Mock Draft: Projections for Event's Fastest-Rising Prospects
By Ryan McCrystal , Featured Columnist Mar 30, 2016

David J. Phillip/Associated Press

We're entering in the final stages of the NFL draft evaluation process, with the main event now less than a month away.

But even in the final weeks, prospects are still jockeying for position on draft boards with some last-minute workouts, medical checks and interviews.

While NFL teams have strong opinions about prospects at this stage of the process, draft boards have yet to be finalized, which gives players a chance to rise or fall slightly in the coming weeks.

Here's a look at an updated mock draft followed by a breakdown of a few prospects who are on the rise.

NFL Mock Draft
Pick Team Player Pos School
1 Tennessee Titans Laremy Tunsil OT Ole Miss
2 Cleveland Browns Jalen Ramsey DB Florida State
3 San Diego Chargers DeForest Buckner DE Oregon
4 Dallas Cowboys Joey Bosa DE Ohio State
5 Jacksonville Jaguars Vernon Hargreaves CB Florida
6 Baltimore Ravens Myles Jack LB UCLA
7 San Francisco 49ers Jared Goff QB California
8 Philadelphia Eagles Ronnie Stanley OT Notre Dame
9 Tampa Bay Buccaneers Shaq Lawson DE Clemson
10 New York Giants Darron Lee LB Ohio State
11 Chicago Bears Carson Wentz QB North Dakota State
12 New Orleans Saints Leonard Floyd LB Georgia
13 Miami Dolphins Ezekiel Elliott RB Ohio State
14 Oakland Raiders Reggie Ragland LB Alabama
15 Los Angeles Rams Josh Doctson WR TCU
16 Detroit Lions Jack Conklin OT Michigan State
17 Atlanta Falcons Kevin Dodd DE Clemson
18 Indianapolis Colts Taylor Decker OT Ohio State
19 Buffalo Bills Sheldon Rankins DT Louisville
20 New York Jets Noah Spence LB Eastern Kentucky
21 Washington Redskins Eli Apple CB Ohio State
22 Houston Texans Corey Coleman WR Baylor
23 Minnesota Vikings Laquon Treadwell WR Ole Miss
24 Cincinnati Bengals Michael Thomas WR Ohio State
25 Pittsburgh Steelers William Jackson III CB Houston
26 Seattle Seahawks Cody Whitehair OG Kansas State
27 Green Bay Packers A'Shawn Robinson DT Alabama
28 Kansas City Chiefs Mackensie Alexander CB Clemson
29 Arizona Cardinals Ryan Kelly C Alabama
30 Carolina Panthers Vonn Bell FS Ohio State
31 Denver Broncos Paxton Lynch QB Memphis

Notable Fast-Rising Prospects

WR Michael Thomas, Ohio State

Michael Thomas didn't put up huge numbers at Ohio State, primarily due to the presence of running back Ezekiel Elliott in the offense. But Keyshawn Johnson's nephew is among the hottest names in the draft and is a candidate to develop into an even better pro than he was a college receiver.

Thomas lacks elite speed and is primarily a possession receiver. To further boost his stock in that role, Thomas has been working to add weight this offseason, recently sharing that he had gained five pounds since the combine.

Based on Thomas' updated weight, Bleacher Report's Matt Miller shared a comparison of the measurables for Thomas and Ole Miss' Laquon Treadwell:

Treadwell and Thomas both play similar roles, but the numbers advantage appears to go to Thomas.

According to Bleacher Report's Jason Cole, the Washington Redskins are among the teams that are high on Thomas as a first-round prospect.

CB William Jackson III, Houston

According to Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle, William Jackson visited with the Miami Dolphins on Tuesday, a potential indication that the team could be interested in him with the 13th selection.

In this mock-draft scenario, the Dolphins land Ezekiel Elliott to fill their running back void, but if Elliott were off the board, Jackson would be a viable option at No. 13.

The rise of Jackson has coincided with the rise of Florida cornerback Vernon Hargreaves, who solidified himself as a potential top-10 selection with a dominant combine performance.

With Hargreaves and Florida State's Jalen Ramsey likely landing in the top 10, other franchises in the market for a cornerback are doing their homework on Jackson to determine if he's worthy of being the third cornerback off the board.

QB Carson Wentz, North Dakota State

Carson Wentz continues to ace every test thrown his way this offseason.

After wowing scouts at the Senior Bowl and then again at the combine, Wentz has checked off another box by scoring a 40 on his Wonderlic test, according to former NFL scout John Middlekauff:

The top 2 QBs in the draft dominated the Wonderlic

Wentz 40
Goff 36

— John Middlekauff (@JohnMiddlekauff) March 28, 2016
This news doesn't necessarily change Wentz's stock, but it's just another test he's passed with flying colors this offseason.

If teams were looking for reasons to doubt Wentz's ability to transition from the FCS to the NFL, he's hasn't given them any.

So you come into thread that you don't like, saying that it should be someplace else and then you complain because you don't want all the draft stuff "messed up" by having the rest of us in there?

How about you just go back to your draft snobfest and leave us the **** alone?

Draft articles and the such are in drsft planet thru the year and as the draft approaches they start getting posted in the lounge foe the guys who aren't all drafty.

Maybe someone is afraid the 'Ask a gay guy anything' thread is going to get bumped off the first page.

Since i'm one of the regular people, i put in the lounge with all the regular posters.

Why the **** do you have such a problem with draft stuff being discussed in a football forum?

1. Why is it so ****ing hard for you to click "draft forum" and post it in there?

2. I could give a **** less about what the drafturbators wanted way back when, really. Almost every football forum I go to has a separate section for the draft. Why? It keeps it organized with all of the other draft related topics.

Most also have a Football Only forum and then all the other bullshit in some sort of Lounge. Why? Because people don't want to sift through 3 days of shit to find 1 topic.

I don't want to sort through 16 pages on whether Dane is or isn't a dick, or how butthurt you or Tiger are that day, or how Penz went to Subway and ate a giant cock, or the color of SR's newest sweater. I really don't give two shits to dive into the childish side of the message board. Maybe we should have a new sub-forum for imbeciles only, then that might solve some of the problem.

So yeah, I have a problem with it being posted in the Lounge.

3. Where the **** do you get that I've ever been a snob about the "Draft Forum?" What the **** is that bullshit exactly? Since when are you ever unwelcome there? I'm asking you TO post it there. I'm asking you to GO TO THE DRAFT FORUM. I'm not telling you to stay away! WTF man. I wish more people would go in there and talk about the draft, get over your horseshit and grow the **** up.

Which player do mock drafts project each team to pick in the 2016 NFL Draft?

They take a whole bunch of mock drafts and work them into a kind of consensus mock. Then for each pick in the first round they show how often a player was picked for each team, as a percentage in a pie chart. The guys are updating it frequently and promise that they will continue to do so up until draft day. There has already been two attempts in the comment section to play out a first round based on the choices. Of course it can't possibly be accurate, but it's a quick and interesting way to keep track of how the mocks are trending.
