I follow the pre-draft media with a cursory glance because I don't follow college football and I get some input into possible draft choices for my team. The endless RAS inspections are tedious. The film clips of prospects are more interesting.

I'm all for the pre-draft hoopla if only for the economic impact it has. How many people are making money with all this discussion? Without three months of draft coverage - one quarter of the NFL year! - Lombardo, Tanier, Kiper, Rapaport, Greenie, Wright, Breer, Adams, Schatz, et al would be seated shoulder to shoulder turning tiny screws into iPhones. And we, the insatiable NFL fans, would be deprived of a fourth discussion of Prospect X's arm length.
