Bill Simmons recently wrote an NFL mock draft instead of, you know, a real column, and it’s predictably terrible.  It’s not so much that Bill’s mock draft itself is awful – I’m sure he simply combined a few mock drafts he found online – but it’s painfully obvious that Bill doesn’t watch college football.  It’s another lazy, mail-it-in column for Bill, but that’s par for the course these days.  Do you know how I know that Bill doesn’t watch college football?  This part sort of gives it away:

There is no talking the Rams out of this one: The new owners want a poster boy for their new regime; their beaten-down fans need a Hope Vessel, and there’s no better way to feed that beast than grabbing a good-looking QB with a Hollywood-ready name like “Sam Bradford.” It’s probably the right pick.

I’m not really in the habit of rating dudes’ looks, but Sam Bradford is not good-looking.

The rest of Bill’s column is filled with stupid, fake trades, including one where the Pats wind up with Dez Bryant pretty much for free, as well as a stupid tier system that places college quarterbacks on levels that only makes sense to Bill.  It really may be the dumbest thing I’ve ever read.
