We love the draft. You know this.

We are roughly 24 hours from the first round, a sporting spectacle that is not for everyone but is must see TV for the 5-at-10. Don’t judge.

We have not done mock drafts. Until now. Here’s how we see the first 10 picks going.

While 26 draft-eligible players have accepted invitations from the NFL to attend the proceedings later this month, Winston and Marcus Mariota are not among them. The two most recent Heisman Trophy winners and highest-profile players in this year’s crop have opted to stay home with their families for the April 30-May 2 draft. (AP Photo/Julio Cortez, File)
