Projecting the future of this mad, mad, mad, mad world is a fool's errand.
Lucky for you I'm a completist fool and couldn't possibly leave you without a preview of college football's best players and next year's top draft prospects before I close the book on the 2019-2020 draft season.
It remains to be seen when we will actually see these players on the football field. Regardless if it's fall or spring, these are the prospects you should watch out for.
Obviously, a way-too-early mock draft isn't about accuracy, although, 19 of the 32 players I included last year were either drafted in the first or second round last week. All in all, 25 of 27 players who entered the draft were drafted (the other two signed as priority free agents).
The draft order is based on vegasinsider.com Super Bowl LV futures. I don't hate your team (Vegas does).
A reminder: the NFL draft has become a nice appetizer before our main course in September (hopefully). A mock version of said draft is meant to educate, and even entertain. At very least, it helps you pass the time.
