NFL reporters' live mock draft: How to follow and participate
It's NFL draft week and that means a countless variety of NFL mock drafts bombarding fans clamoring for insights from their favorite football Nostradamuses.
Everyone seems to have their favorite draft prognosticator. National draft analysts like Mel Kiper Jr. and Daniel Jeremiah (what's Mike Mayock up to these days?) get plenty of TV time in the days ahead of the draft, but what about the reporters who show up day in and day out to the team facilities?
The beat reporters know the teams better than anyone. They talk to the coaches, the players and front-office personnel regularly. They've attended all the games and have intimate knowledge of each team's strengths and weaknesses.
On Monday, reporters covering every team will be putting their expertise to the test when they make their picks in The Times' NFL reporters mock draft. Here's how you can follow along as reporters make their selections in real time:
