The 2021 NFL Draft is almost here, and thank you, Jesus, because it's been a while since folks were so fired up about who their favorite team might select. The reality is that none of us know how things will pan out -- fans, media, draft analysts, scouts, coaches, GMs -- because it's so incredibly difficult to project how someone three or four years removed from high school will evolve as a player (against some of the most talented athletes on the planet, mind you) over the next decade. And that's not to say we should all just throw our hands up in defeat but instead, maybe we shouldn't take it all quite so seriously. Enjoy the process instead, and enjoy what made these players so good in college and how those traits translate to the next level.
