Are mock drafts worth it?


The Red King

Recommended Posts

As someone who doesn't know jack about college football, I'm a big consumer of mocks.  They lead me to watch YouTube videos of players the Bills may pick.  By the time draft-time rolls around I have a pretty good idea of who's going where and what their needs were.  While any given mock itself may have been inaccurate, the process of seeing them in the two month leading up to the draft are great for the fan experience.  That's all they're meant to be... entertainment for us fans

I like mocks as folk have put the time and effort in which I'm too lazy to do (I kid, I just don't have the will or time). 

 

I watch extremely little college ball and I couldn't tell you a college player's name until the mocks start coming out. However, I don't treat them as gospel as to where a player will be drafted.

Mock drafts are click bait. That’s why people do like 5 now before the draft. Easy content.

 

Fans love it.

 
I think I’ve even seem more than 5 by some.  They make a couple changes to get people to click but based on what?

I think they're kind of useless, and I only read a few just before the draft.

Most folks choose players that they view as need.

Since the Bills philosophy is best player available, it makes little sense.

 

My view this year is that the Bills don't have roster room for all their picks, so they package a deal for a trade up.

No point in guessing where, for how much or for whom.
