The NFL Draft is just a little over 24 hours away, and the SEC, once again, leads the way in mocks, projections, and potential picks.
This year’s draft will be held Thursday through Sunday in Green Bay, Wisconsin. As of Wednesday, the projected number of first round picks is at 14.5 for the SEC. No other conference is even projected to be in the double digits.
