The NFL season is nearly upon us, and that means most fantasy drafts will be happening over the next couple of weeks. With that in mind, the staff at numberFire got together to do a 12-team mock draft to provide some insight into our thinking, and to give you an idea as to how a draft can play out.
Much like our 14-team league, which drafted earlier this month, there were some extreme instances of waiting on certain positions, and some bold statements by drafters seeking to get a player they believe in.
This 12-team mock was drafted with standard scoring settings in mind. The starting lineups included 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE, 1 Flex, 1 K, and 1 D/ST. The randomly assigned draft order was as follows:
| Pick | Drafter |
|---|---|
| 1 | Sean Wirth |
| 2 | Mike Comerford |
| 3 | Leo Howell |
| 4 | Jordan Hoover |
| 5 | Greg Bucki |
| 6 | Jim Sannes |
| 7 | Matt Grasso |
| 8 | Ari Ross |
| 9 | Jack Delaney |
| 10 | Sam Hauss |
| 11 | Tyler Buecher |
| 12 | Billy Hepfinger |
Here's how the draft unfolded, round by round.
