About two months ago, I was intrigued.

Curious.

I couldn’t get enough.

I just couldn’t read enough about the NFL draft. And now?

I’m ready for it to be over.

Today my news reader was inundated with stories from seemingly every major newspaper across the country speculating on what their regional team was going to do on Saturday and Sunday. Of course, there are those ever interesting features on the various prospects.

Did you know that Amobi Okoye was only 19? Yes. Yes, I did. I knew this in February at the Senior Bowl when writers there were writing about the outstanding defensive tackle from Louisville.

With the exception of Peter King’s piece on Wisconsin tackle Joe Thomas and yesterday’s New York Times piece on UTEP’s Jordan Palmer, I have read nothing that has enhanced my life as it pertains to the draft. So enough is enough.

For the next four days, I will read NOTHING about the NFL draft, save breaking trade news, etc. I’m done.

I’m excited for the actual draft but I’m tired of the build-up and meaningless speculation from any number of “experts.”
