This 2017 NFL mock draft isn’t going to reflect current assumptions, but most likely the ones that will be a reality with the next few months.

Chief among them is the state of the quarterbacks. Almost every notable source would have people believe this class is light on potential top signal callers. Yet that is almost the exact same line delivered on most crops. By the time April comes around there are two or three QBs who emerge from the pack to garner serious interest as top 15 choices. This class will be no exception. It’s just a matter of figuring out who makes that cut.
