Mock Draft Hero
@mockdrafthero.com
https://mockdrafthero.com is a free online mock draft simulator with spectacularly realistic trades, an impossibly simple UI, and practically real-time player ranking updates (legal note: "practically real-time" = multiple times each week, usually).
mockdrafthero.com now shows player stats and hometown for 2027 prospects when you expand the player bio. All positions except for offensive line got this new feature; the big guys in the trenches are important, but unfortunately the freely-available statistic data doesn't seem to include them.

The default draft order on mockdrafthero.com is now using the www.tankathon.com/nfl order, but for those who are deeply skeptical of the Vikings' and Browns' strong starts, you can switch to an order based on Super Bowl odds from the settings, or you can drag & drop to create your own custom order.

Pre-draft trades get some love today on mockdrafthero.com. If you want to see what questionable decisions led to a team obtaining a draft pick, the mouseover for pre-draft trades now includes the history of how that pick ended up with the current team. As always, please send us any bug reports.

With the NFL season underway mockdrafthero.com is now focusing on bug fixes and refinements:

1. The trade algorithm should be willing to sell the farm for a top QB, and will also detect positional runs.
2. Team needs are now algorithmically calculated; let us know if your team's needs seem "off".

While I've failed to post updates lately, there have been several changes to mockdrafthero.com. For one, you can now create and share your own board, so build your magnum opus and let everyone know about it! Second, the UI has seen major cleanups since simpler = gooder. Feedback is appreciated!

mockdrafthero.com has gotten a lot of under-the-hood updates recently involving things that matter a lot to programmers but not so much to mock drafters: architecture refactors, unit tests, and SEO optimizations. Odds are good that something has broken somewhere, so bug reports are much appreciated!

A LOT of people have asked for the ability to customize the mockrafthero.com draft order, but sadly our ones of programmers didn't have time to implement it in 2026. Now, with an assist from the AI overlords, the draft order is customizable so you can choose which team wins the 2027 QB sweepstakes.

For 2027 mockdrafthero.com will continue to offer multiple draft boards, but the default will be a new custom board created from a weighted average of numerous other rankings & mocks. Feedback is appreciated, but if you don't like a player's ranking blame the expert consensus & not the messenger!
April 29, 2026 at 2:55 AM
That's all folks! The 2026 draft results will be up for the remainder of the day, then tomorrow the defaults will be updated to 2027. Thanks everyone who made this a really fun draft cycle; please keep the feature requests and bug reports coming, next year will be even better!

Day three of the draft starts in less than one hour, and mockdrafthero.com will continue to be updated in real time as picks are made.

Thanks to the apparently clairvoyant @insidenflnews.bsky.social for posting many pick and trade details seemingly the instant that teams submit them.

Thus ends day two of the 2026 NFL Draft. mockdrafthero.com has all of the picks and trades, so start your day three mocks now.

And Browns: Denzel Boston AND Emmanuel McNeil-Warren? Dare I risk jinxing things by thinking "nicely done"?

That's a wrap on round one! mockdrafthero.com has been updated with all picks and trades from day one, so go ahead and start your round two mocks. Based on the first round results Buffalo is apparently only trading picks rather than picking any players; please mock accordingly.

Enjoy tonight's draft everyone! Reminder that mockdrafthero.com will be updating in real-time as picks are made.

As a Browns fan the draft is always exciting, so it should be an interesting night.
April 23, 2026 at 1:43 PM
Starting Thursday night mockdrafthero.com will be updating as the draft unfolds so that you can draft based on picks and trades that have already been made. A "Start from Scratch" option will still be available, but if you want to do a second round draft based on first round results then have at it!
April 19, 2026 at 4:22 AM
mockdrafthero.com update for today: there's now a FAQ available by clicking on the "About" header menu item and then choosing the FAQ tab. For everyone who wonders how the AI decides to make a pick, or has asked how to change teams mid-draft, those questions now have answers.
April 14, 2026 at 1:54 PM
mockdrafthero.com will now show pick suggestions when it is your turn to pick. You can configure the number of suggestions (or turn it off entirely) from the settings.
April 10, 2026 at 4:07 AM
A small mockdrafthero.com update tonight: there's now a badge on the "Trade" button when it's your turn to pick with the number of trade offers available. Also, you now get up to 4 offers (was 3) with a random likelihood of 1, 2, 3 or 4 offers. I don't do UI, but hopefully this is a useful addition.
April 3, 2026 at 1:43 AM
Two mockdrafthero.com updates today:

1. The "Trade" button no longer disables during drafts. I don't remember why it ever disabled in the first place, so please report any issues. A few trade edge cases were also fixed.
2. The 2027 draft order now uses Super Bowl odds to determine draft position.

mockdrafthero.com now offers a dark mode for those who like to draft in the dark but worry about eye strain. Colors are still being tweaked and will probably change a bit in the coming weeks. As always please report any bugs and suggest any improvements.
March 25, 2026 at 2:07 PM
Players bios on mockdrafthero.com now include all NFL Combine testing results. If you draft based on 40-yard dash time or bench press reps, or if you have an unhealthy obsession with hand size, that data is now available.
March 13, 2026 at 1:54 PM
The NFL announced compensatory picks, so the draft order on mockdrafthero.com is now final, minus someone figuring out what picks were actually traded between LV and BUF for Taron Johnson, and whatever remaining shenanigans teams engage in between now and April 23.

In the ongoing battle to simplify the mockdrafthero.com UI a few changes will be going live tomorrow. The "Show/Hide Filters" button is sadly dying, allowing other buttons to move around. This change frees up space on mobile, and gives more room for team details on web. Feedback is appreciated!
March 3, 2026 at 3:04 AM
Several mockdrafthero.com changes tonight:

- Player height and weight data has been updated with combine measurements. Thanks Reddit user Bshu_jordan for compiling this data!
- Relative Athletic Scores (RAS) are now included in player bios when available.
