Mock drafts are a mockery to the draft process, which is itself a mockery to America.

I am excited to see which team hypes themselves up enough to overdraft Joe Milton. He needs very specific team coaches to even have a chance to be mediocre in the NFL, and you loving know some garbage team will draft him in the 2nd or whatever because ~HE CAN THROW NINETY YARDS~.

I'm sure "no income tax in our state" is a nice bonus from the six or so teams that benefit from that.

I want a great QB but seattle will pick in the late teens or early 20s so go ahead and gamble on big arm big talent.

If you're willing to settle for "huge arm no talent" then boy do I have the quarterback for you!

Imagine how much worse it'd have been if Richardson were still owner.

poo poo, imagine how the idea of Stroud would've gone on the Texans if the "Can't let the inmates run the prison" owner were still alive.

Stroud is a genius because he treated the test like the joke that it actually is.

My prediction is the Bears go with MHJ to complement Justin Fields and DJ Moore, barring a king's ransom of picks as trade bait.

Personally I'm hoping my team trades up to grab one of the top two LT candidates, because drat the cost, we need a functioning OL.

Titans, which will probably end up around 8-10ish. Out of reach of the top two LTs and MHJ, but could still go with another offensive option as consolation, as WR is another big need.

What immoral poo poo, have you seen some of the players that got drafted

Also this is the NFL, half the owners have done far worse poo poo than any of the players.

Having 4 pass catchers going to QB needy teams instead of Jayden Daniels is some suspect valuation. Also, Bowers is going to get way overdrafted. Undersized TE that is going to end up a glorified slot receiver.

I dunno, I personally like the mock that has a LT falling to 7.

Also, the Rams actually have a first round pick this year!?

That is a good list, I agree the top six teams should only draft QBs and WRs and let the tackles fall to 7.

If you want a project with arm talent, Joe Milton is right there in the lower rounds. He both has twice the arm talent and is also twice the project!

Any draft with the Titans getting Joe Alt is a good draft imo

I think the Chargers are better off doing something else with that pick imo, he should fall to 39 instead.

If the QB ain't helping to block then they shouldn't be on the field.

If it boosts the chances of Joe Alt falling to 7, then I'm all aboard the JJ Hype Train.

This may be controversial, but I am brave enough to say it.

The Chargers should draft Brock Bowers at 5. And if they don't, the Giants should draft him at 6. Both spots are good positions to draft a TE imo.

Neither team should draft Joe Alt. Based on my draft calculations, LTs should not be drafted until the 7th pick, which happens to be when my team, which coincidentally is in dire need of a franchise LT, is picking. I ran the numbers, i checked the charts, and "Picking the player my team needs ahead of them" is in the lower-left quadrant, which is always the evil quadrant. You're not an evil person, are you?

Anyway this is all moot until the combine when the NFL scouts measure the circumference of the players' skulls and can determine how much dawg is residing in the players' brains.

Those numbers alone don't tell me the whole story, do you have an X/Y chart with meaningless axes measured to tell me how good he is?

It'd be neat to see the NFL careers of the players who are like Top 10 or so in RAS in each position. Probably wouldn't be many big names.

The other thing about his production was Brian Kelly was actively trying to get him the Heisman and left him in games that were well in hand in order to juice his numbers. I have no opinion on whether he's a better prospect than Maye or not though.

That just shows how inferior a coach Brian Kelly is to Coach O, as he didn't need to pull such shenanigans to get Burrow a Heisman and the #1 pick.

Jets get Mr. Irrelevant. Which is fitting, you see. For an irrelevant team.

You could always pull a Niners and find your future franchise QB there.

Because god knows the Jets haven't found a franchise QB anywhere else...

The thing about trading down is it requires another team that wants to trade up. Yeah, some teams are desperate to get a quarterback or a franchise kicker, but often times a team that wants to trade down isn't gonna find a suitable partner.

Trade down to 11 and still get Alt, great draft imo

Kinda weird the Pats spent a sixth rounder on Milton solely so he can throw Hail Maries, but maybe they know something I don't.
