Appropriately predicting each choose within the first spherical of the NFL Draft is unattainable, however some are much better at mock drafts than most. Jason Boris, a 46-year-old grant supervisor for the state of Pennsylvania, could be the king of all of them.
Based on The Huddle Report — a web site that has tracked the accuracy of mock drafts since 2002 — Boris is essentially the most correct mock drafter over the previous 5 years, with a median rating of 48.2, much better than different, extra celebrated selectors.
In 2025, Boris topped all mock drafters tracked by The Huddle Report besides Nick Jacobs of KSHB-TV in Kansas Metropolis and Cory Rindone of The Huddle Report. This yr, Boris scored much better than Daniel Jeremiah of NFL Community, Peter Schrager of ESPN and veteran NFL author Sam Farmer of the Los Angeles Occasions. (The Huddle Report lately has not tracked the mock drafts of ESPN’s Mel Kiper Jr.)
The Huddle Report’s scoring system provides mock drafts one level for every participant positioned in Spherical 1 and two factors for a player-team match. In 2024, Boris appropriately projected 29 of 32 gamers within the first spherical and matched 15 with the workforce that chosen them. His rating of 59 tied for the very best in The Huddle Report historical past. In 2025, he scored 51, appropriately deciding on 29 gamers who went within the first spherical and matching 11 to the workforce that chosen them.
Boris has by no means been a scout and has no inside data. So, what’s secret?
“To me, the draft is sort of a puzzle, and it is making an attempt to suit the items into the puzzle,” Boris advised Yardbarker lately. “You begin together with your borders, which for me is just like the quarterbacks, and then you definately type of strive to slot in all the opposite items.”
