Summary
The Draft Room goes full community mode with a unique third-round mock draft built from fan-submitted mocks in the NFL Draft Fanatics Facebook group. Using real first and second round selections posted by group members as the foundation, each third-round pick becomes a legitimate exercise in evaluating need, value, and available talent as the board thins out.
- All 36 third-round selections broken down pick by pick, including team needs, player evaluations, and positional value analysis
- The Packers land Jake Slaughter, offensive center out of Florida, as teams passing on the position let him fall perfectly into Green Bay's lap
- Garrett Nussmeier to Arizona as a Day 2 QB, the Steelers finally addressing offense after heavy defensive investments, and why Miami needs three straight trench players
- A deep look at which positions accumulate value in the third round, from the run on corners and defensive tackles to the surprising tight end and safety selections late in the round
Drop your own mock drafts in the NFL Draft Fanatics Facebook group and make sure your fan base is represented — 30,000 members strong and growing. Tomorrow we shift gears to Combine news and notes as prospects hit Indianapolis.

| 0:00.0 | Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the draft room. |
| 0:20.7 | This is the NFL draft podcast of the Packernet |
| 0:24.7 | Podcast Network. So here's what I think we're going to do because, I mean, it's still |
| 0:31.1 | relatively early, but I have the other podcast to try to get done and I've got to get this up. |
| 0:35.5 | I kind of thought this would happen. It's a little too early to even decide if there's enough news and notes today. Let's do Bockdraft Monday today, |
| 0:46.0 | and then we'll pick up on some of the news from the Combine tomorrow, depending on how much |
| 0:53.1 | there even is in the first day, |
| 0:54.6 | we shall see. I mean, just about everybody's there right now. I'm seeing a handful of things, |
| 0:59.9 | but, you know, I'm not going to wait around until two, three o'clock and then decide if I'm going to get started. |
| 1:08.2 | So I had a thought for today. So the two weeks ago, we did a normal first round mock draft. |
| 1:14.5 | Last week, I believe we did a second round mock draft. |
| 1:18.9 | This week, with a twist, I want to try to do kind of like a third round mock draft. |
| 1:24.1 | And the twist is this. |
| 1:25.5 | As I've mentioned before, we've got a group NFL mocked draft |
| 1:31.3 | NFL draft fanatics over at Facebook forward slash groups, forward slash mock drafts. |
| 1:38.7 | We got 30,000 members in there, very, very active dropping their mock drafts. So what I thought we would do |
| 1:46.8 | is hopefully I can find enough to where this works. But I want to go through and have the first |
| 1:56.2 | two picks be from people that did mock drafts. So for example, I'll grab, you know, this one, |
| 2:03.0 | the Dallas Cowboys picks Sunny Stiles and Dylan Thineman. Now, this isn't going to be super |
| 2:10.7 | legit insofar as it would be like an actual three-round mock draft, because there's going to be a lot |
| 2:16.6 | of repeating. The point isn't to make it exactly that. The point is each pick is kind of independent |
| 2:24.5 | so that the third round is kind of a legit round. The first two rounds are kind of just |
