We're joined by Zack Patraw of NFL Draft Bible on Sports Illustrated & John Chapman of the 49ers Rush Podcast to help us mock the first 32 picks of this year's draft, but, the catch is that the selector has to pick between one of the three players that the rest of the guys on the podcast have nominated for that particular selection.
