One week out from the 2023 NFL Draft, I'm ready to make one very bold proclamation: This draft probably isn't very good and will end up setting the record for most incorrect mock drafts perpetuated in the history of whomever the mockers worship (a stone statue of Mel Kiper's magnificent coiffe, no doubt) these days. But this draft won't be shocking because of the storylines. It's going to be shocking because it's a Plane Jane type of draft. There's four quarterbacks and a bunch of non-top-heavy stars. The cornerbacks are good and the edge rushers might be good, too, but there's not a whole lot of great going on in this draft. Maybe that's somewhere we've been headed the last few years. Regardless of how we perceive these draft classes, why aren't we imagining a world where some of these quarterbacks drop in the draft? Everyone is talking about four quarterbacks in the top five ... and it's kind of crazy.
