Assorted 2022 NFL Mock Drafts

[Libero_2]

I wouldn't think twice about that.  A first rounder for a guy with one year left on his deal? 

I wouldn’t either, but I still think I’d be targeting edge at 4 and a Charles Cross at 10 barring an unexpected Neal/Icky slide

this raises an interesting scenario.  What kind of compensation do you think we could get back for Becton?

Most likely far less than we would want I would bet Fants value might well be higher today because of the negativity around Becton and the injury year he just had.

Probably similar to the Darnold trade, but a little worse.  Maybe a 3rd and a future 4th that becomes a 3rd with met incentives.

Apparently Becton is currently working his derriere off to get in shape.  Maybe JD could sell that, work his magic, and turn into a conditional 3rd that could become a 2nd with playing time thresholds.

Becton and Mims for Metcalf, make it happen JD

He was in fantastic shape to start last season too.  The injury wasn't because of his weight, just super fluky and unlucky. 

He has the ability to be an All-Pro.  If he comes back, it's one less hole for us to fill.

you would hate a 10 year anchor on the oline protecting our franchise QB?  interesting strategy.

In my eyes, Neal is only a tackle. I’m not ready to completely throw in the towel on Becton, and it doesn’t seem smart to trade away Fant who has been the most consistent offensive player the past 2 years.

Neal isn’t a great fit here. There’s an argument for Ekwonu since he’d be a better fit a guard (but I’m still not convinced that taking a guard at 4 is a great idea).

The offensive line isn’t that bad. It needs a RG. Sign a solid backup tackle in case Becton gets hurt again and it should be fine.

Trade out of 4 and stack picks.

I agree (if the board isn't right for us) but easier said than done as always.

With both Denver and Washington nabbing quarterbacks I doubt there is any team that wants to trade up into the top 10 now to get a qb.

Pass on Hutch and Thibs to take Hamilton.  Zierlein is the worst.

I don't see them moving up 10+ spots.

why?

[Derek Smalls]

The appeal of the 10th pick in a trade down was that Washington might want a QB at 11.

Maybe someone wants to move up to 4 to get ahead of the Giants (5) and Panthers (6). The Seahawks are at 9, but moving up to 4 is overkill.
