NFL 2022 1st draft mock
RANK | LOGO | PLAYER NAME | POSTION | COLLEGE | COMMENT |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | ![]() | Evan Neal | OT | Alabama | I don't know which direction Jacksonville is going to take. They badly need help on the offense of line to protect QB Trevor Lawrence or go with the best athlete available. They could go with a DE like Aiden Hutchinson or Travon Walker or maybe Kayvon Thibodeaux. |
2 | ![]() | Aiden Hutchinson | DE | Michigan | Aiden Hutchinson plays with high motor energy on every down. He is not athletic like other edge rushers in the draft, but he can get the job done. |
3 | ![]() | Ikem Ekwonu | OT | North Carolina State | He the most polished offense of line in the draft. He could start immediately, Houston Texans are like an expansion team because they need help in every position. |
4 | ![]() | Kyle Hamilton | S | Notre Dame | The Jets need to shore up their secondary because they gave up a lot of yardage in the air and very few interceptions. Kyle Hamilton is a beast at safety. |
5 | ![]() | Jordan Davis | DT | Georgia | The Giants need help on the offensive line and secondary. I believe they will snatch up Jordan Davis because he an absolutely a beast in the middle. He is 6'3" weight 341 lbs, and he can run 40 yards dash in 4.78. |
6 | ![]() | Sam Howell | QB | North Carolina | The Panthers need a quarterback this season because Sam Darnold is not going to lead the team to the playoff. Sam Howell is a much better fit than Kenny Pickett. he is an excellent runner who can extend plays. |
7 | ![]() | Charles Cross | OT | Mississippi State. | The Giants are back on the board again they go after an offensive line this time to solidify that position. I believe he the best offensive line in the draft. |
8 | ![]() | Garrett Wilson | WR | Ohio State | The Falcons desperately need a wide receiver and Garrett Wilson will answer the call. He has the size and the speed to be the best wide receiver in the league. |
9 | ![]() | Derek Stingley Jr. | CB | LSU | Seattle could go quarterback, but I believe they snatch cornerback Derek Stingley Jr. He is the best and most athletic cornerback on the board. |
10 | ![]() | Kayvon Thibodeaux | DE | Oregon | The Jets are back on the clock and they go for the most athletic player in the draft and that happens to be Kayvon Thibodeaux, He is right up there with Javon Clowny and Julius Pepper as the top pass rusher in the league. |
11 | ![]() | Jameson Williams | WR | Alabama | Jameson Williams injured his knee in the college football Championship game and had to get surgery on it. He was dominating at the wide receiver position the whole year. |
12 | ![]() | Sauce Gardner | CB | Cincinnati | Sauce Gardner is the most solid cornerback who plays the run and covers any wide receiver in the league. he blitzes very well at that position. |
13 | ![]() | Jermaine Johnson II | DE | Florida State | Texans might surprise everyone by picking up Jermaine Johnson II from Florida State. his stock has been rising in recent days. |
14 | ![]() | Devonte Wyatt | DT | Georgia | I believe the Ravens will take a Defensive Line to fill the hole. Devonte Wyatts is very quick off the ball and can dominate the opposing offensive line. |
15 | ![]() | Devin Lloyd | LB | Utah | Devin Lloyd is the best linebacker in the country because he is a fierce tackler and can dominate the game. He is also quick and he plugs the gap very well. |
16 | ![]() | Chris Olave | WR | Ohio State | The Saints need solid and consistent playing that can stretch the field. He the perfect for this team. |
17 | ![]() | Treylon Burks | WR | Arkansas | Treylon Burks is a very big physical player who beat up on cornerback. He is a possession-type player that can go up the middle and make big plays. |
18 | ![]() | Tyler Linderbaum | C | Iowa | This guy Tyler Linderbaum is the best center coming out of the draft for quite some time. He is quick and physical and has the knowledge to control the game based on his assignment. |
19 | ![]() | Kenyon Green | OL | Texas AM | Saints desperately need an offensive line to protect Jamie Winston. He is a great run blocker that will allow the Saints to run the ball more often. |
20 | ![]() | Kenny Pickett | QB | Pittsburgh | Pittsburgh needs a quarterback right away and Kenny Pickett is the readiest quarterback in this draft to play in the NFL. Malik Wills is raw and he needs more time to develop. |
21 | ![]() | Daxton Hills | S | Michigan | Dax Hill would be a great fit in Belichick's defensive scheme. He has a great range for safety at the NFL level. |
22 | ![]() | Nakobe Dean | LB | Georgia | Nakobe Dean is the best outside linebacker in the draft. He is a big physical player that can pass coverage well. |
23 | ![]() | Andrew Booth Jr. | CB | Clemson | He is probably the best coverage guy the can play zone coverage and man-to-man very very well. He is excellent playing the run and a good tackler. |
24 | ![]() | Zion Johnson | OG | Boston College | He is a great fit for the Cowboy's offensive because he is a very mobile guard the can lead block very well based on his quickness. |
25 | ![]() | Kenneth Walker III | RB | Michigan State | Bills could use a backup running back before somebody snatches him up in the second round. This will give the Bills a dynamic duo running back combo. |
26 | ![]() | Bernhard Raimann, OT | OT | Central Michigan | Tennessee needs help on the offensive line. Bernhard Raimann is a perfect fit for Tennessee he fits well in the running game and also has very good footwork in the pass protecting. |
27 | ![]() | David Ojabo | DE | Michigan | This could be a steal snatching up David Ojabo this late in the draft. He a sack machine like his partner Aiden Hutchinson at Michigan. |
28 | ![]() | Trey McBride | TE | Colorado State | For years Aaron Rogers begging for a Wide Receiver in the 1st round and it never happens. Well, Green Bay finally get Roger a wide Receiver? Not quite because can't pass up on a pass receiving tight end Trey Mc Bride who caught 91 passes for 1,200 yards. |
29 | ![]() | Jahan Dotson | WR | Penn State | Since The Cheifs traded away Tyreek Hills to the Dolphins, they need to add another wide receiver to the depth chart. Jahan Dotson would be a good fit for the organization. |
30 | ![]() | George Karlaftis | DE | Purdue | This will be a nice pick for the Chiefs because they got a solid defensive end falling this far in the draft is considered a steal. |
31 | ![]() | Trevor Penning | OL | Northern Iowa | Trevor Penning will give a boost on the offensive line. A big fellow who can play tackle or guard in the NFL. He is very good at pass protecting is exactly what the Bengals needed. |
32 | ![]() | DeMarvin Leal | DT | Texas AM | I don't think the Lions will waste their first pick on a quarterback when they have Jared Goff. DeMarvin Leal would be a great addition to the Lions because he is the most dominating run stopper in the SEC. He will do well at the NFL level. |
