Mock Drafts this early are usually about as accurate as a blind person playing darts, but sometimes you might hit the board even though many will probably be no where close. The draft always gets a lot more clear after the NFL Combine takes place but who has the patience to wait that long before putting out their first predictions?!
Everything is up in the air right now about who is going to be picked and when, but now is the time to make some early predictions just for fun. Obviously I am probably going to get some flak for predicting 3 quarterbacks to go in the top 10, considering that none of the QB's in this draft are sure fire picks.
It is a QB driven league though and the Chiefs, Cardinals, and Bills all need a QB. Well, the Bills don't really NEED one, but their owner already came out publicly stating this year might be the year for them to try and draft a Franchise caliber QB.
