2025 T10B MOCK NFL DRAFT

Unlike the last two years, this year's NFL draft is not loaded with franchise QBs. While most experts (and gamblers) have Miami's Cam Ward going to the Tennessee Titans with the #1 overall pick, the next QB may not come off the board until the Steelers make the 21st selection. In comparison, six QBs came off the board within the first 12 picks of the 2024 draft. Last year also was highly unusual because the first 10 picks all played on offense. Based on my mock draft, there should be a more even split with 7 offensive players and 4 defensive players going in the top 10 spots. Lest you think I can't add, Travis Hunter has All-Pro potential as both a wide receiver and defensive back.

2024 T10B MOCK NBA DRAFT

Unlike last year when Victor Wembanyama was a no brainer as the #1 overall pick, this year lacks the same overwhelming favorite. It seems very likely that either Zaccharie Risacher or Alex Sarr will go first in the 2024 NBA Draft. However, neither one will give the Hawks the same confidence that the Spurs had by taking Wemby one year ago. At this point, I'm having flashbacks to 2013 when there was no clear-cut top prospect and the Cavaliers took Anthony Bennett with the #1 overall pick. Point being, I wouldn't be surprised if Atlanta picked any one of the top six players in the 2024 T10B Mock NBA Draft. Perhaps most surprising is that 2x NCAA Player-of-the-Year Zach Edey is not on anyone's radar screen as a likely top 10 overall pick. I can understand teams with a top 5 pick looking elsewhere, but I just can't imagine 10 players from the 2024 draft who will have better careers. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

2024 T10B Mock NFL Draft

For the second year in a row, the NFL draft is loaded with QB prospects expected to go very early in the first round. Of note, most mock drafts have USC's Caleb Williams, LSU's Jayden Daniels, and UNC's Drake Maye going with the first three picks. Furthermore, Michigan's J.J. McCarthy is not expected to drop below#6. The draft seems to be equally loaded with elite receivers as Ohio State's Marvin Harrison Jr., LSU's Malik Nabers, and Washington's Rome Odunze are expected to go in the top 10. Over time, QBs and WRs taken early in the draft have proven to be booms or busts. If history repeats itself, there will be at least two busts among this group. As of now, I'm going with the LSU duo of Jayden Daniels and Malik Nabers as the most likely potential Top 10 Busts.

T10B Busted: Simone Biles is not the GOAT (at least, not yet)

Like many Simone Biles fans, I looked forward to seeing her do superhuman acrobatics during the 2020/21 Tokyo Olympics. Despite tremendous physical skills, she unfortunately suffered a mental collapse at the most inopportune time. Like most, I supported her decision to pull out of multiple events to take care of her mental state and avoid serious injury. Unlike most, however, I believe her limited participation prevented her from being considered her sport's unqualified GOAT. Fortunately, the last chapter of her career has not been written.

2023 T10B MOCK NBA DRAFT

Synopsis: No brainer at #1 with Victor Wembanyama, who might be the most hyped draft pick ever. At a minimum, he has generated the same draft buzz as LeBron James. The 2023 NBA Draft forever will be linked to the career of the 7'4" Frenchman. Anything short of all-time great will be a letdown. At least he'll start his career with a great mentor in Coach Pop.

2023 T10B Mock NFL Draft

In a return to normalcy, the 2023 NFL Draft should be front-end loaded with up to four QBs going as a top ten overall pick. In contrast, the 4th QB didn't go off the board until late in the 3rd round last year. With stellar college careers, the most likely top two picks include Alabama's Bryce Young and Ohio State's CJ Stroud. Florida's Anthony Richardson and Kentucky's Will Levis didn't have the same success on the field, but their raw talent has been cited when including them high in the draft. In addition to these four prospects, I have rounded out the 2023 Mock NFL Draft with DE Will Anderson Jr., DL Jalen Carter, DE Tyree Wilson, CB Devon Witherspoon, OL Peter Skoronski, and RB Bijon Robinson. So who are the potential busts? Don't worry, that'll come later.

T10B Busted: NBA’s 75th Anniversary Team

Prior to the 2021-22 season, the NBA announced it 75th Anniversary Team to honor the greatest 75 players in league history. In anticipation of that moment, my son and I developed an algorithm to create our own list of all-time greats. The NBA relied on a panel of "expert" voters who likely utilized the "eye test" while this site relied purely on objective measures such as stats, awards, and titles. There was significant overlap in the names on both lists, but this post provides a ranking to make the debate that much more interesting. Who's the GOAT? Who got snubbed? Who didn't quite deserve the honor? It's all in here. Read and enjoy.

2022 T10B MOCK NFL DRAFT

Whether an accurate perception or not, it seems like interest the NFL draft varies directly with the number of quarterbacks mentioned as top prospects. Perhaps hoping to generate interest, the creator of the featured image for this post included two quarterbacks and one defensive end even though neither QB is likely to go with one of the top overall picks. For me, the 2022 NFL Draft lacks the same frenzy that often leads teams to go coo coo for Cocoa Pops scrambling to get a potential franchise quarterback on a cap-friendly contract. Regardless, I am excited to watch teams wheel and deal in their attempt to take advantage of a talented group of defensive ends, offensive tackles, cornerbacks, and wide receivers. With moments to spare, I offer the 2022 T10B Mock NFL Draft
