I don't usually put a lot of stock into who is mocked to which teams but generally can get a pretty good idea of overall rankings of prospects. It would be cool if someone did an analysis of different outlets projections vs results using standard deviation of where players are picked. That could at least tell you who is generally correct with their evaluations compared to the teams. 

This is how I look at mocks, particularly outside of the top 5 or so picks.  One single pick in the 1st round sends a ripple effect thru the rest of the draft.  So its unrealistic to think that people are going to nail exact picks for an entire round.  You just have to look to see where the players generally were located.  And if the guy nails the value then he nailed his mock.
