BY TREVOR.HOLBROOK @iowastatedaily.com

A little over a month after March Madness brackets go up in flames, NFL mock drafts follow suit. One blockbuster trade or a few reaches or falls can derail draft analysts’ predictions. While mock drafts are crapshoots, aggre- gating a handful of mock drafts can clarify team needs, individuals’ draft stocks and the order of players picked at specific positions. The NFL Draft begins at 7 p.m. Thursday with the first round. At 6 p.m. Friday, the second and third rounds follow. The draft wraps up on Saturday with rounds four through seven starting at 11 a.m. For the first time since 2014, Iowa State should have a name called on one of the three days and one or two more names could follow.
