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" = usually every weekend).
The mobile UI of mockdrafthero.com gets an overhaul tonight with a new "Draft Selections / Available Players" toggle. Mobile users on small screens no longer need to use a tiny edge of the screen to constantly scroll up and down to switch between draft selections and available players.

Another mockdrafthero.com update that went live today: now that the regular college season is done and post-season awards have been given out, I've begun adding biographies for prospects (disclaimer: "I" = "ChatGPT with me spot-checking").

Please provide feedback if you find any mistakes!

This week's mockdrafthero.com updates include a request from the Reddit community: there is now an "Undo Pick" option for those "whoopsie" moments where you realize you just accidentally drafted your fourth running back.
December 14, 2025 at 3:40 PM
One tiny new update for mockdrafthero.com for this weekend: there is now a five second countdown after a draft is started before the first autopick is made, so trading for the first pick no longer requires lightning fast reflexes after starting your draft.

Attention Captain Hindsight: mockdrafthero.com has a new 2025 draft board that uses the actual draft results plus notable undrafted players. If you want to re-draft 2025 with the advantage of clairvoyance, have at it!

The Browns did great on most of the picks, but one change would have been nice...
December 4, 2025 at 6:16 AM
Two new features went live on mockdrafthero.com today:

- Draft results now (optionally) show picks traded.
- The filter button now sticks to the top of the screen on mobile.

If you want the Browns to trade their entire draft to move up four spots, now you can share that trade in the results.

Titans fans rejoice: mockdrafthero.com now allows trading picks for the 2028 draft, so it's possible for more teams to generate offers for the #1 pick.

This update also includes small tweaks to the algorithm to ensure that trades are even more realistic; please let me know if I've broken anything.
November 21, 2025 at 5:41 AM
mockdrafthero.com just got smarter!

The trading algorithm now prefers trades for prospects who are team needs or players who have dropped.

The draft algorithm now weights team needs on a sliding scale. The first need gets a high weight, the last a low weight.

No more first round QBs for the NYG!

The team selection UI on mockdrafthero.com has been updated to be more user-friendly, but of more interest to the true obsessives is that you can now change teams at any point during a draft! If you want to draft every team during the first round but only your favorite team after that, now you can.
November 10, 2025 at 4:10 PM
Normally mockdrafthero.com gets updates every Monday night, but given today's trade deadline fireworks I figured Jets fans would be hugely disappointed if trades weren't updated and they had to wait another six days to use all of their mock draft capital.

How do you know that you spend too much time doing mock drafts? If the new setting on mockdrafthero.com that allows you to use either the Jimmy Johnson, Rich Hill or Chase Stuart draft value charts when generating trades sounds exciting, you may need to step outside and touch grass.

mockdrafthero.com is updated each week shortly after MNF with the latest draft order and big boards.

On a related note, from a Browns fan to the Ravens fans out there: welcome to the side of fandom that spends the season checking the bottom of the standings to see if you can earn a top-five pick!
October 14, 2025 at 3:53 PM
The trained hamsters responsible for the code are still figuring out how to make it easy to upload and share custom big boards on mockdrafthero.com, but a small step towards that goal is an enhanced board selection UI. If you're wondering how recently a board was updated, now that info is available!
October 2, 2025 at 3:48 AM
Changes to mockdrafthero.com have mostly been behind the scenes lately, but a new UI update just went live: you can now see pre-draft trades. If you're wondering where Atlanta's first round pick went, starting tonight there's a helpful reminder of their very questionable trade from the 2025 draft.
August 17, 2025 at 5:31 AM
It took WAY longer than it should have, but mockdrafthero.com now has 2026 prospects, boards, and team needs. If you're feeling nostalgic then you can still re-draft 2025 by changing years in the settings. There were MANY changes required, so please try it out and report everything that I've broken.
July 23, 2025 at 5:25 AM
Post-draft update: 2026 big boards are coming to mockdrafthero.com, but it may take a few weeks to get them up and running. The code needs refactoring to support multiple years, and it takes time to gather prospect data.

In the words of a very wise man "Patience you must have, my young padawan."
April 30, 2025 at 5:20 PM
mockdrafthero.com has been updated to reflect all trades made so far in the draft, so if you're in a hurry to get your round 4-7 mock out, you should be good to go. Let me know if I missed any trades.

Also: Dillon Gabriel at pick 94? Really Browns? You were doing so good up to that point.

There are a lot of folks on message boards that hate that trade, but the Jaguars gave up a massive haul to the Browns. I might have to tweak the mockdrafthero.com algorithm to allow more unequal trades for the top picks next year, since it currently thinks that was too good of a deal for Cleveland.
April 25, 2025 at 12:31 AM
Thanks everyone who has used and followed mockdrafthero.com throughout the past few months, and now enjoy tonight's draft! As a Browns fan whose team holds the #2 overall pick, it should be an *ahem* interesting evening.
April 24, 2025 at 5:54 PM
All of the Big Boards used by mockdrafthero.com have been refreshed with the latest data, and that will likely be the last update before the draft starts on Thursday. Thanks for all of the feedback and bug reports this year! Now let's see how accurate we all were when the Titans kick things off.

One more small mockdrafthero.com update tonight: player bios now have date of birth and age for the players who I could find data for.

On a definitely-totally-unrelated note, does anyone happen to know of a better source for draft prospect dates of birth than establishtherun.com/2025-nfl-dra...?
April 17, 2025 at 4:33 AM
There won't be any more major changes to mockdrafthero.com until after next week's draft, but two small changes just went live. First, the selection pane now shows rounds so you can tell if pick #176 is a 5th or 6th rounder. Second, once a position is selected it is now greyed out as a team need.
April 16, 2025 at 2:13 PM
One of the reasons mockdrafthero.com was created was to offer more realistic trades than other draft simulators. Tonight's update improves the trade logic by making it less likely that teams in the same division are willing to trade, or that teams with limited draft picks will want to trade up.

After yesterday's update improved PDF exports of draft results, today's mockdrafthero.com update gives some love to image exports. Now you can select specific rounds to export and choose how many columns the image export should contain.

Feedback and bug reports are much appreciated!

Tonight's update to mockdrafthero.com adds team logos to the UI and cleaner PDF exports. We've consulted our crack legal team to ensure compliance on team logo usage, and done exhaustive field studies (exhaustive = twos of people) to ensure that the UI is the best yet. Feedback is appreciated!
