Mock

I have the adobe master collection and it includes FW. I do mock ups all the time, What I do is mock it up in FW and if there is something I can do easier then I import into Photoshop. I jump between the two, so I would suggest that you use both. If you know how to use the FW tools then making mock ups will be a piece of cake. source

I'm not talking about ability of the player, I'm talking about realism of the picks. Trust me I'm no Freeman supporter, I see Jamarcus Russell V2 when I look at him. I just think he may very well be our pick come the 25th. source

I do not at all understand this obsession with Ducasse. He's slow footed, doesn't read D-Lines well, and is basically a project player at this point. Yeah, he could turn out to be a serviceable starter, but we need a replacement for Neal now, not in 3-4 years. Give me three reasons why we should take Ducasse over Iupati or even Mike Johnson or Jon Asamoah. source

Whether or not you a mocking framework is useful depends in part on the language of the code you're writing. With a static language, you need to put in extra effort in order to trick the compiler into accepting your mock objects as a replacement for the real thing. In a dynamically-typed language such as Python, Ruby or Javascript, you can generally just attach the methods onto arbitrary object or class and pass that as the parameter -- so a framework would add much less value. source

I think it really depends on how much work you put into the mocks. If you do your best, or do the same amount of work that you would realistically do for the real LC, you probably won't change much really. If the mocks give you a bit of a shock, and you get your ass in gear as a result, it's likely you'll improve. From my own experience, most people's points don't change too much. Grades in individual subjects might, but the overall points probably won't. source
