Mock draft: 10-team, PPR
The NFL offseason has provided its usual dose of excitement and drama. It has made our ESPN Fantasy Football analysts antsy to draft, so while we have to wait another month for the 2023 NFL draft, we could wait no longer for our first mock draft of the season.
How has the fantasy landscape changed over the past year? If this mock is any indication, there is momentum for wide receivers early on (three in the first five picks) and for the clear No. 1 tight end later in the first round.
This draft featured the following participants (in order of first-round selection): Tristan H. Cockcroft, Liz Loza, Eric Karabell, Mike Clay, Eric Moody, Kyle Soppe, Stephania Bell, Daniel Dopp, Tyler Fulghum and Matt Bowen.
