I'll do mock drafts for fantasy football trying to gauge what others might do because I am the one that is going to be doing the actual drafting when the time comes. I just don't get what is gained from mocking the rookie draft. The only thing I ever see from it is a bunch of fans getting pissed off because real teams didn't pick who the fans wanted them to pick. I'm never disappointed in a draft because I don't set myself up for disappointment.

Can y'all honestly explain to me what is gained by researching all of these college players and then setting your expectations up to be shot down. What is the appeal?

"I'm never disappointed in a draft because I don't set myself up for disappointment."

Not even the the notorious 2014 Draft?

Brandin Cooks, WR. 2014 Draft: First Round, 20th Overall: ...

Stanley Jean-Baptiste, CB. 2014 Draft: Second Round, 58th Overall. (and passing on WR Landry when we needed one in a deep WR draft because we were silly and took only Cooks instead)

Khairi Fortt, LB. 2014 Draft: Fourth Round, 126th Overall: ...
Vinnie Sunseri, S. 2014 Draft: Fifth Round, 167th Overall: ...
Ronald Powell, OLB. 2014 Draft: Fifth Round, 169th Overall: ...
Tavon Rooks, OT.

None but Cooks even in the NFL. Got the entire Scouting Dept fired and brought use ireland. That's what disappointment does. Or, as Forrest Gump's momma would say, "Stupid is what Stupid does."
