Welcome everyone. With the NFL season waning, the draft season is just about to begin – for most, at least. For those that read my article a few months back, as the NFL draft has continued to grow into the enigma we see now, it has become a year-round process. In the next few months leading up to the draft, I will do my best to fill many of you in on the guys who may hear their names called early on along with many other tidbits. This may include mock drafts, draft profiles, sleeper/bust prospects, or just borderline rants.
