The 2015 NFL Draft is exactly one month away.
That's right - depending on your perspective and opinion of the draft process, either there are only 31 days left until the draft or there is an agonizing one more month of analysis and mock drafts to sit through. In either case, we will be working diligently on our prospect profiles over the next four-plus weeks as we try to get you and us as prepared as possible for those intense three days from April 30th to March 2nd.
Of course, Ted Thompson is light-years ahead of us, as he most likely already has his board set up and is spending the next month fine-tuning it. Keep calm and Trust Ted, and we'll end up in good shape.
At least that's the plan, anyway. On to the curds!

Medical timeout rule is going to cause controversy | Packers.com
Apparently Vic thinks that players are going to fake concussions to get their team a timeout. I do agree with him, however, that Georgia Tech tight end Darren Waller is someone to watch on day 3 of the draft.

Stephen White breaks down one of the top edge rusher prospects in this year's draft to see if his ability can be harnessed - and finds that Kentucky's coaches did a poor job of harnessing it.
