Draft season has arrived for the 18 NFL teams who will not be participating in the postseason and another college football campaign is in the books after Georgia earned its first national championship since 1980. Players with remaining eligibility have until January 17 to make their draft intentions official. My evaluation process is about 75 percent complete with college all-star games on the horizon, most notably the Senior Bowl on February 5 in Mobile, Alabama.
