Olik — Working on it today. Will drop Mock 4.0 on Monday. Don’t know who’s slipping to 27th this week.

Am sure hoping that the Falcons draft some of the HBCU top prospects. Although theses guys come from a D2 school most of their stats are very impressive. I hear a lot of talk about AJ Green, but his stats just doesn’t add up and am sure he’s a great player – but some of the WR’s on the HBCU board stats, abilities, talent, and skills out weigh AJ Green completely……Go Figure!
