The week of the 2015 NFL Draft has finally arrived. The draft prep is done, now it’s just about time to see how the dust settles.

The editors of the 32 sites that make up FanSided NFL got together to do a mock draft of our own, with each site making the pick for their team.

Trades were not allowed in this mock draft. Not being able to move up or down the draft board left some teams disappointed in their position, while others were excited to find a coveted player still available. Find your favorite team to see how they came out, and leave a comment to let us know if you approve of the pick or want your team to do something different.

Without further ado, let’s get to the picks…
