We mocked the 2016 draft relentlessly up until the moment it happened, and some people are already mocking the 2017 draft. Well, in my opinion... I don't see why you can't mock a draft that already occurred. The draft is truly an event worth mocking.
People deal with major events in several ways, the NFL draft is no exception. Every person with a penchant for professional football commentary loves to try and predict the draft, analyze the draft, grade the draft, etc. We are a draft hungry populace, and watching players who we may or may not have heard of fly off the board is our only source of nourishment.
