I have read through the readme and I must be overlooking something. Do I just drop all the contents of each mod into the Mods folder or do they need to be put somewhere else?

Mods are now organized as resources. Use the Mods link above to browse for or submit a mod, tool, or prefab.
The TFP Official Modding Forum Policy establishes the rules and guidelines for mod creators and mod users.
I'm kind of new to all this

The general pattern is that a modlet's directory/folder goes into a Mods directory/folder HERE...
%APPDATA%/7DaysToDie/Mods
For instance you'd put the ZZTong-Prefabs modlet's folder would be %APPDATA/7DaysToDie/Mods/ZZTong-Prefabs
You can tell a modlet's folder because it has a ModInfo.xml file in it, other files and folders. A common mistake is that when you unpack a ZIP file you might get another layer of folder.
Each modlet gets its old folder under Mods.
It is handy to know that %APPDATA% is a variable that Windows understands. It usually refers to C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming where your user ID plugs into USERNAME so that it is unique to each users on the system.
When you start talking about using Overhaul Mods and/or Mod Launcher, then things can change away from this pattern. You'll want to follow the instructions for them.
