The true value is the data the sites provide. These guys have done a ton of work in getting a sense of the draft worthiness of each prospect. So while the average fan might know the names of the prospects in round 1, we might not know all of the prospects in the later rounds. That's what I look for in these mock drafts.
I don't like it. Try again Walter.

I agree. I actually enjoy their mocks but they swing and miss a lot. I'm not going to pretend that I know the prospects for the first three rounds and that site is useful in that regard.

Mock drafts this early is just throwing shite at the wall. People love reading them so the they put them out for page clicks but there's not much substance in them. Hell, they've got Scooby Wright in the top 20 and he's undersized and has played 5 quarters all year.
Todd McShay put out the ESPN way too early mock after the draft and basically put a disclaimer on it saying this is stupid but people like reading it.
Sure enough in his top 10:
#1 Christian Hackenberg - sucks
#7 Cardale Jones - backup
#8 Duke Williams - ducking Laplace thugs full time
