Oh, it's NFL draft cloak and dagger season. That's right. That's right, I almost forgot!

We kick off January with the NFL coach hot stove, which merges right into NFL draft analysis with the first mock drafts

being released and not only are we treated to Melk Hyper's first round mock his mock 1.0

but tomorrow I'm hearing that Bleacher reports Matt Miller oh the Matt Miller, all the Matt Miller, the original Vaper Scout, just a cardboard cut-out

draft analyst who makes it up as he goes along. The original.

There are now hundreds of Matt Miller clones

across the internet.

But he was the original, and he is coming out with a seven-round mock,

the full draft, he's going to tell us who's going to be

drafted where.

Wow!

I'm so excited because he's just so knowledgeable. I empathize with so else in the world by reading Matt Miller's seven round January mock draft.

It doesn't matter what month it is, it could be April.

And reading a mock draft epitomizes unproductive use of one's time. Mock I'll take the lesser known mock drafts from the Daniel Jeremiah's and the Lance

zerlines over the Mel Kipers and the Matt Miller's all day and this is

before we get to Benjamin Albright, Benjamin Albright who's telling us that, well, his sources, right? His sources in team front offices don't have Saekwan Barclay in their top 10.

That the NFL draft media is higher on Saekwan Barclay than actual NFL teams.

Well, it just takes one team to have Saekwan Barclay in their top five

for Saekwan Barclay to be drafted in the top five.

Benjamin, I don't think you know the draft boards.

I don't think you have carnal knowledge of every team's draft board, because that's what it would take to make these claims.

That's why they're so absurd and useless.
