The first round of the NFL draft airs in prime time tonight and it got me thinking… if the PGA Tour had a draft with all current Tour players available, who would the first pick be? Better yet, what would the Top 10 look like?

Let’s say there are ten owners of “golf teams.” Each team gets one golfer and their stats throughout the year are calculated and put to use in some formula that also includes what place the golfer finishes in at each tournament.

Basically, it’s Fantasy Golf, but since we’re nearly five months into the golf season I’m going to use 2013 performance, as well as future potential to make my PGA Tour Draft Picks.

With the first pick in the 2013 PGA Tour Draft, the Cleveland Wedge’s select…

Rory McIlroy: He’s got the brightest future of any golfer on Tour and he’s already a proven winner. No brainer here.

With the second pick in the 2013 PGA Tour Draft, the New York Slicers select…

Tiger Woods: Many believed Woods would be the first pick, but it’s 2013, not 2003 and while Woods most likely has a few major wins left in him, he’s still on the backside of his career.

With the third pick in the 2013 PGA Tour Draft, the Sacramento Sand Traps select…

Luke Donald: It’s not a flashy pick but Donald is much like Drew Brees of the New Orleans Saints in that he’s consistent and has the ability to have a break out year, every year and winning the big one is never out of the question.

With the fourth pick in the 2013 PGA Tour Draft, the Austin ArnoldPalmers select…

Adam Scott: Not only is he a major champion winner, he has great marketable looks and let’s be honest, it’s all about money. He traveled a long road to get to that first major and has plenty of years left in the tank.

With the fifth pick in the 2013 PGA Tour Draft, the San Diego Fringe select…

Phil Mickelson: San Diego takes the hometown boy and multiple time major champion. It’s a risky pick, but will pay big dividends if Mickelson has a resurgent second half of his career.

With the sixth pick in the 2013 PGA Tour Draft, the St. Louis Water Hazards select…

Keegan Bradley: The future is bright for Bradley and being a major champion at the ripe age of 26 easily puts him in the Top 10.

With the seventh pick in the 2013 PGA Tour Draft, the Chicago Wind select…

Bubba Watson: Chicago will love Watson’s charisma and charm. They’ll fall even more in love with his huge driving ability and being in contention in nearly every tournament.

With the eighth pick in the 2013 PGA Tour Draft, the Augusta Nationals select…

Rickie Fowler: It’s not always about what you’ve done in the draft, it’s about what you might do. While Fowler’s loud wardrobe choices may be a bit much for Augusta’s conservative nature, the possibilities could very well be endless for Fowler if he reaches his potential.

With the ninth pick in the 2013 PGA Tour Draft, the New England Fairways select…

Justin Rose: Solid player. Great attitude. Always seems to be in the mix on Sunday. What more could you want?

With the tenth pick in the 2013 PGA Tour Draft, the Denver High Rough select:

Dustin Johnson: Controversial pick at 10, but Denver must like the potential if Johnson can find the proper balance of mental focus and physical ability in the future. Or maybe they just want Paulina Gretzky at home games. Tough call.
