The NFL Draft is less than a week away, meaning we’re almost finished with a pre-draft process that sometimes seems interminable. Or maybe that’s just me, seeing as this is the sixth mock draft I’ve written leading up to it.
There are only so many directions you can take when putting together a mock, but while I’ve experimented with different ideas recently, this mock is more straightforward.
I approached this one as a prediction. I combined all the information I’ve gathered from talking and reading with my own feelings on players to come up with my best guess. Let’s call it “slightly informed speculation.”
