“Coach A12″ is a high school track coach in Ohio, and I guess some of his athletes — girls, I hope — are not so tuned in to the greatness that is tonight’s NFL Draft. True, it’s an acquired taste. But this year’s festivities should be especially delicious. Where will Tim Tebow go? Who’s No. 1 (it’s usually just a formality)? Who gets Dez Bryant? Why Thursday night? If the 49ers choose Jimmy Clausen, will the author of this blog be driven to violence? Gratuitous Alyssa Milano. Add Ben Roethlisberger trade rumors to taste, and you have, well, something. It’s like Christmas for NFL nerds. Here’s a mock draft to whet your appetite. Good luck!*
And remember, no matter who the Chargers choose tonight, in the playoff’s it’ll be “One … and … done!”
