    So I devised a scoring system that ranks mock drafters based on how close each player is drafted compared to their predicted pick and how many draftees they get correct, with additional points for predicted the team the player gets drafted by correctly, if the pick is wrong (Ex. If the mock had the Blazers drafting Swanigan at #10 instead of #26, the mock drafter would get points for getting Swanigan to the Blazers right.)

    I also average the players pick predictions from all mock drafts and rank players accordingly. That mock draft is called the "Matrix Consensus", which ranked 3rd out of 17 mock drafts, even though it has the disadvantage of not being able to slot players to teams that have a need for their position, as it's solely based off averages.

    Here are the rankings based off the full two-round matrix.

    No surprise to see DraftExpress and nbadraft.net on top. Sadly, my mock draft finished 12th out of 17.

    In the One-Round Matrix, The Ringer edged out Draft Express to top the rankings.

    Notes:
    1.) WTF is Steve Kyler on???
    2.) Most 1st round picks correct was 28 out of 30 by The Ringer
    3.) Most 2nd round picks correct was 55 out of 60 by MyNBADraft.com
    4.) Nobody had Jabari Bird in any mock draft. He went 56th to the Celtics.
    5.) Everybody had Johnathan Motley getting drafted. He went undrafted.
    6.) DraftExpress by far the most reliable mock draft for gauging 2nd round prospects.

    28 of 30 for the Ringer is pretty amazing!
