Assorted 2022 NFL Mock Drafts

I would hate back to back DBs in the first as much as Heiss would hate a center in the first.

Sounds like a Presidental campaign bumper sticker.

Jets fans say this a lot but this might be the one that would have me reconsidering what I’m doing with my life

[Derek Smalls]

I expect to see a bunch of mock drafts that have us taking 2 defensive backs because on paper, it looks like we need DBs pretty badly, and the value of Stingley and Hamilton matches up with our pick numbers.

And let's be honest - we do need both positions badly, especially safety. We just need other positions more. If they use one pick on a DB, I would be OK with that, but 2 would be a disaster in terms of roster construction.

[CatoTheElder]

I'd be fine with one DB but we beed EDGE and an offensive skill position.

We also badly need linebackers. It seems like that need has been overlooked because it's usually not a position you take in the top 10, but we need at least 1 and maybe even 2-3 linebackers in this draft. I don't know what the FO thinks of Quincy and Nasirildeen long-term. Sherwood, too, but he had a pretty bad injury, so I don't see how you can count on him at all.

At least one of those day 2 picks needs to be on a linebacker with some speed.

Really looking forward to watching Ojabo in the playoff.  I've only watched a couple Perdue games, but Karlaftis doesn't really do anything that blows my mind.  Ojabo does.

Ojabo also plays opposite Hutchinson, so his job is a little easier.

Who will be more impactful:  Devin Lloyd or Kyle Hamilton?

I need to watch more, but one of the things that caught my eye about DO is how frequently backs/TEs help out when blocking him.  He draws a lot of attention for an "other guy."

Really curious to see how Georgia plays them.

That's because it's the position with the most supply behind only dt.  There really isn't a need to waste top draft capital on the position.

I don't think using a day 2 pick on a LB is waste of draft capital. Look at Micah Parsons.

[Heismanberg]

I don't think using a day 2 pick on a LB is waste of draft capital. Look at Micah Parsons.

Parsons was the 12th overall pick and probably would’ve gone top five if he wasn’t a massive turd off the field

That said, we should heavily consider Devin Lloyd with Seattle’s pick.

Devin Bush has also been pretty good value for the 10th pick.
