I promised myself I’d wait until the early-entrants list was finalized, but I couldn’t help myself. Here’s a quick two-round mock with commentary later:

Four More Teams, Part 3
I started this column by picking four teams whose drafts I wanted to critique, just as in the last two posts, but as I began writing, I started to include off-season moves and recent drafts for context, and I began to notice that these organizations all seem to have some systemic problems. I try to […]
Manti Te’o: Overrated Prospect Pre-Alabama
Manti Te’o has drawn much criticism for his imaginary girlfriend and how he handled the entire situation. Many have claimed that Manti dropped on draft boards because of the controversy. But, maybe there’s another explanation: he was never as good as advertised. I watched several videos of Manti Te’o before the Alabama game even occurred, […]
Draft Review: Jacksonville Jaguars
OK, I’m going to break a rule of mine with this post, and I’m going to write about my home team, the Jacksonville Jaguars. (This probably won’t be the last time I break it.) With that said, this draft really excited me. I feel a number of teams found some incredible value last weekend, and […]
Quick-and-dirty Day Two mock
Analysis of Round One later. Right now, no explanations, just picks (and a couple of trades):
Needle’s Value Board
I’ve never known enough information about how teams choose selections to do a true mock draft. (ed. note– that never stops the rest of us!) I leave that for others. Instead, I like to rank the players in the order I’d put them on my Big Board if I was in the draft room. So, […]
Draft Prospects on Tape: Alec Ogletree and Tyler Eifert
With the draft just a few hours away, I’ve got some more film review of prospects for our readers to look over. Today we have a couple of guys who have been slowly creeping up the board and are now likely first-round picks.
Nath’s “No One’s Mocking” Mock
I’ll roll out my final mock draft tomorrow, but I had the idea for an intellectual exercise beforehand. Since the draft always has some major surprises– some teams play it straight with the media, many more don’t– I thought I would try my best to “predict” how some of those picks might happen, where a […]
Draft Prospects on Tape: Sheldon Richardson and Arthur Brown
In this post, we’ll be looking at two potential first-round picks on defense, Missouri DT Sheldon Richardson and Kansas State LB Arthur Brown.
Draft Prospects on Tape: Dee Milliner, Jonathan Cooper, and Ezekiel Ansah
In these next few posts, I’ve looked at some college tape on draft prospects and recorded my thoughts and commentary. Watch the videos and read a bit of my commentary at the end. We’re going to start with two of the top-ranked defensive prospects in this draft, Alabama cornerback Dee Milliner and BYU defensive end […]
