The Mock 2013: Volume I

February 20th, 2013

Chris Crawford

As many of you know, mock drafts and I have a bit of a love/hate relationship. I think they’re a lot of fun,and I think as we get more information they can be quite useful, but I think that people take them a tad too seriously and way too much information can change in six hours, much less four months.

With that being said, I know that you guys get a kick out of them, and we can make educated guesses now. Keep in mind that this is not the board and not indicative of player value. We’ve never seen the draft in any sport go in order of best-player-available and we never will.

We’ll have a chat discussing the mock and the board on Thursday at 7:00 EST. If you can’t make it, post your questions below and I’ll answer yours before we get started. Thanks for reading.
