That is right, there are about 4 weeks until the NFL draft. That means it is time for another mock draft.
I threw a few trades into this draft, which would make sense to me. There is a slightly shocking pick at the end of the 1st round, but I think when you see it… it makes way too much sense… for both teams to not do a deal. The scuttlebutt is that the Titans now like Mariota, which could be a smoke screen. I would not put it past them to trade the pick for a starting quality NFL QB (Brees/Rivers).
So let’s see what the draft gods have produced for this mock draft…..
