When you read the old mocks from Kiper, especially around 2001, you will be mortified how the guy hasn't been fired yet.

Re: This is why mock drafts are stupid
Originally posted by B-DONMyself personally would never pay for a mock draft or scouting report but for some people it's entertaining like watching tv or going to a movie. The terminator isn't real either but ppl pay to watch that. I just simply disagree with your article because everyone blows money or time on some form of entertainment. I think your taking mocks to seriously by the sound of things.Bye Bye Brady...

Re: This is why mock drafts are stupid
Mocks do tend to get a little carried away, but are fun to read, at least for me. Anyone who takes these things too seriously that isn't making a living doing it, obviously has too much time on their hands. Most mock drafts are based on preference anyway, are heavily opinionated, and often are just mocks copied by other mocks. A week from now, not many are going to care about these mock drafts, and it will be back to business as usual around here. JMO

Re: This is why mock drafts are stupid
I don't care who we pick. I don't care about the position they play. I don't care where you have him graded on your board after watching Youtube clips. All I care is that the player we draft with our 1st pick (and all of them for that matter) comes in, works his ass off and is an impact player that helps us win games.
At this point, I'm tired of hearing about players being reaches because their arms are 33 inches instead of 34. Or that this player can only play in the box. Or his backpedal isn't as good as somebody elses.
Can he help the Bills win games? If that answer is yes then I could not care less about anything else.Last edited by Bangarang; 04-25-2012, 02:06 PM.

It's always a dice roll - always will be.
Several years ago, on another site, a trusted poster related about meeting and talking with Mel while they both were waiting for a flight. He enjoyed the chat, said that Kiper was just a regular guy - happy for success that he never thought possible.Fiat justitia ruat caelum. Noli timere. Laus Deo.

Re: This is why mock drafts are stupid
I think what the problem is when drops happen. Maybe most of us are smart and know they are for entertainment, but when the Bills reach for a player and fans go nuts about it, it is based on stupid mock drafts. Everyone thought Jimmy Clauesen was a great pick for the Panthers because mocks had him top 10. Obviously, it was bs
