The NFL draft is right around the corner. (Quite literally for this editor who can see the fountains and stage from his hotel room.)
Since the end of the 2021 NFL season, and if we are honest before that even, mock drafts have set the stage for fans. A myriad of mock drafts, including our two, published on Monday, are mostly ways to introduce prospects to fans and show how the draft could fall. Far less about the accuracy of which teams are going to draft which players.
Mock draft simulators have also added to the intrigue and, perhaps, a false sense of certainty of where players will fall.
