I'm disappointed to learn that Mel Kiper Jr. will no longer be publishing his annual  '' Blue Book'  Draft Guide.   I was a subscribed to Kiper's Guide each year since 1982,  While Kiper made plenty of miscalculations/ mistakes over the years,   including some mentioned in this thread,   his annual Draft Guide was a good source in terms of the NFL Draft and when the NFL games started in the summer:

My final comment last year in the draft report, which was the final edition of my blue book draft report after 35 years, we'll no longer publish it... "Decent to good arm and just enough mobility to get the job done. Extremely accurate. Tough kid. Didn't have a quality supporting cast around him. For what he had to deal with, he did a nice job in handling adversity. I think he has some nice things going for him and could be a guy you hear from down the road. Late round pick or priority free agent."
