On vacation – be jealous

New_yorker_medium
Site note: Between today and Sunday night, I will be offline and on vacation.

Four days in New York City sounded like a good idea. So did staying at the New Yorker Hotel. And seeing two Devo shows. And eating giant sandwiches. And doing a bit of networking for “real work.”

So, kiddies, stay civil. The site is in your hands so don’t break anything. We’ll have some content still going up over the next few days and I expect to see plenty of comments.

What will be most beneficial, though, is filing me in on what goes down on Saturday. Watching a game? Leave some notes about who is looking good or bad and why. And keep the mocks coming!

Enjoy the games as the college season winds down and the NFL year goes into overdrive. In the coming weeks the site will really start to take off with content. After a quick recharging of the batteries, it’ll be time to really get to work here at Mocking the Draft.

He’s a bit of a liability in the run game, but his potential in the pass game was enough for Buffalo Rumblings.

It’s a high-potential pick for a Detroit defense that needs a solid pass rusher.

This rookie would be a great complement to Jared Verse and Byron Young.
