How the pundits scored in the mock draft

[D-train]

according to the same scoring system as our little contest, I tallied the picks of 26 "experts", using their mocks as of this past weekend (several may have updated but screw them).

The one thing I should note is DT's scoring system gave them 8 pts for "Hawks stay put" but I hadn't included predicted trades so it doesn't seem fair to give them all 8 pts. These are the scores without... add 8 if you want to compare I guess?

Other notes: NONE of them got #5 right, only Sikkema and Kelly got Smith-Njigba. I didn't have access to Kiper or McShay's picks 11-20, but they were both terrible (McShay got none right, Kiper only the first 2), so I'm not worried that they made a great recovery.

Results:
1. D. Kelly (The Ringer) 39 pts (47 if you include the bonus 8)
2. D. Jeremiah (NFL) 33 pts
2. C. Reuter (NFL) 33 pts
2. T. Sikkema (PFF) 33
5. M. Renner (PFF) 29 pts
6. J. Jones (CBS) 27
6. Tankathon 27
8. S. Palazzolo (PFF) 26
8. Brockermeyer 26
10. V. Iyer (Sporting News) 25
10. C. McDonald (Yahoo) 25
12. C. Frelund (ESPN) 24
13. J. Edwards 23
13. M. Tannenbaum 23
13. P. Shrager (NFL) 23
16. J. Farrar (Touchdown Wire) 22
16. Bleacher Report 22
16. PFN 22
19. B. Brooks (NFL) 21
19. C. Davis (NFL) 21
21. L. Zierlein (NFL) 20
22. T. Pauline (PFN) 18
23. Walter Football 17
24. Mel Kiper* 14
25. P. Prisco (CBS) 13
26. Todd McShay* 10

So out of 26 experts my 33 points was beaten but a grand total of ONE guy.

Are you counting your bonus points?

I didn't get any points for staying put. I picked them to trade both. Only bonus points I got are 3 for picking a CB.

Kiper and McShay bringing up the rear! Where is Staton???

I couldn't find a current Staton mock. If you know where to find one, I'd be curious how it scores... though I'm pretty sure it's bad.
