It’s a big week. The 2024 NFL Draft officially kicks off this Thursday in Detroit at 8 p.m. EST. Round 1 will be in the books probably sometime around midnight. Until then, speculation abounds. It’s the dream of many NFL sportswriters to build a mock that accurately predicts the many twists and turns the first round inevitably takes. I am no different. Each year, I pore over the rumors and endless dot connections, hoping to channel the spirit of Pythia, the fabled Greek Oracle of Delphi. Instead, I am Sisyphus, laboring toward the peak of perfection I will never reach.
