April is here and by the end of the month, all 262 picks in the 2022 NFL Draft will become an official reality. With https://www.jazzedgestore.com/utah-jazz-hats fewer than four weeks to go before teams go on the clock in the first round, it's time to check with this year's edition of Sporting News' seven-round mock draft.The Jaguars pick first and most times overall, 12. From Jacksonville at No. 1 through San Francisco's potential "Mr. Irrelevant" with the final pick, here's projecting how every pick might go down:NFL DRAFT BIG BOARD: Round 11. Jacksonville Jaguars (3-14)Aidan Hutchinson, EDGE, Michigan (6-6, 260 pounds)The Jaguars have been locked into taking the best defensive player available for a while and that won't change as they go after the cornerstone for their new-look defense under coordinator Mike Caldwell, formerly of the Buccaneers. They've been setting up the relentle s, explosive and sometimes dominant Hutchinson being the anchor2. Detroit Lions (3-13-1)Kyle Hamilton, S, Notre Dame (6-4, 220 pounds)The Lions also feel like they're going for defensive impact and the decision for Brad Holmes, Dan Campbell and Aaron Glenn will come down to Hamilton, edge rusher Kayvon Thibodeaux or versatile 3-4 hybrid playmaker Travon Walker. Hamilton is the safest, can't-mi s option here because he will continue to make a ton of plays on the back end vs. https://www.jazzedgestore.com/utah-jazz-t-shirts the pa s and also clean up like an extra linebacker vs. the run.3. Houston Texans (4-13)Evan Neal, OT, Alabama (6-7, 337 pounds)The Texans are holding on to Laremy Tunsil for left tackle but now they can look at Neal to dominate the right side and provide powerful bookends for Davis Mills or whoever is their starting quarterback in 2022. They have a big void at the other tackle and Neal can flip a ma sive weakne s into a big strength.4. New York Jets (4-13)Kayvon Thibodeaux, EDGE, Oregon(6-4, 254 pounds)The Jets should be thrilled if Thibodeaux slips here to become the explosive cornerstone pa s-rusher for coach Robert Saleh, which will remind him of having Nick Bosa powering his defense in San Francisco. This makes great sense as the follow-up high first-rounder to quarterback Zach Wilson.5. New York Giants (4-13)Ickey Ekwonu, OT/G, NC State (6-4, 310 pounds)The Giants, as expected, removed the hefty contract of right tackle Nate Solder from the books and here's their direct replacement for him opposite Andrew Thomas New GM Joe Schoen needs to upgrade the offensive line well for new coach Brian Daboll and started with adding center Jon Feliciano and right guard Matt Glowinski in free agency. Ekwonu can easily start over fellow newcomer Matt Gono, who makes sense as a strong swing backup.MORE:6. Carolina Panthers (5-12)Charles Cro s, OT https://www.jazzedgestore.com/utah-jazz-jeresy/rudy-gobert-jersey , Mi si sippi State (6-5, 307 pounds)The Panthers will not be taking a quarterback early while settling on starting Sam Darnold again and instead should addre s their biggest offensive weakne s overall. Cro s is a similar strength-power prospect to Ekwonu with his own mean and nasty blocking style. He has untapped upside with his footwork and agility.7. New York Giants (from Bears)Derek Stingley Jr., CB, LSU (6-1, 195 pounds)The Giants need a young alpha playmaker on the back end of their defense and Schoen has given serious consideration to move the hefty contract of James Bradberry before or during the draft. Stingley makes a lot of sense in that regard, edging out a pa s rusher early given the depth at that later position.8. Atlanta Falcons (7-10)Travon Walker, DE/DT, Georgia (6-5, 272 pounds)The Falcons addre sed cornerback in free agency with Casey Hayward Jr to complement rising star A.J. Terrell. They should be thrilled to stay in the state to land Walker, an ideal explosive disruptor in front of Dean Pees' pre sure 3-4 scheme.9. Seattle Seahawks (from Broncos)Malik Willis, QB, Liberty (6-0, 219 pounds)Willis proved he can be a top-10 upside pick for a QB needy team, which the Seahawks are after the blockbuster Ru sell Wilson trade that yielded this pick in return. Willis can develop into their new version of Wilson with strong arm, fine athleticism and overall toughne s.10. New York Jets (from Seahawks)Sauce Gardner, CB, Cincinnati (6-2, 190 pounds)Saleh, should Thibodeaux land in New York to be his next Bosa, can also get his https://www.jazzedgestore.com/utah-jazz-hoodie version of Richard Sherman on the field in this nasty, fearle s and now extremely speedy cover man to complement free-agent addition D.J. Reed. Getty Images 11. Washington Commanders (7-10)Chris Olave, WR, Ohio State (6-1, 187 pounds)The Commanders need to give Carson Wentz and Terry McLaurin some help at wideout and getting a true speedy No. 1 outside would be a great decision for Scott Turner's offense. Olave has a little more all-around appeal for his explosivene s than former teammates Garrett Wilson and Jameson Williams.12. Minnesota Vikings (8-9)Andrew Booth Jr. CB, Clemson (6-0, 194 pounds)The Vikings brought back fading Patrick Peterson because of hurting depth but they still need to addre s corner to get the ideal complement to well-rounded Cameron Dantzler. Booth is aggre sive in coverage and should maintain https://www.jazzedgestore.com/utah-jazz-jeresy/justin-wright-foreman-jersey the big playmaking in the NFL.13. Houston Texans (from Browns)Jermaine Johnson II, EDGE, Florida State (6-5, 254 pounds)The Texans got a strong season from Jonathan Greenard but are pretty weak getting to the quarterback from the outside otherwise. Johnson has been rising fast because of some freakish qualities and has the potential to give them their new J.J. Watt playing end in Lovie Smith's 4-3.14. Baltimore Ravens (8-9)Tyler Linderbaum, C, Iowa (6-2, 296 pounds)The Ravens are looking for an interior stud and should focus on center with Kevin Zeitler serving well as right guard and Bradley Bozeman gone in free agency. Linderbaum, who has been working with former Iowa star turned Ravens legend Marshal Yanda, would be ideal inside.15. Philadelphia Eagles (from Dolphins)Kenny Pickett, QB Pittsburgh (6-3, 217 pounds)The Eagles have been showing increasing affinity for Pickett's more traditional pocket pa sing skill set (along with his athleticism) as an upgrade from https://www.jazzedgestore.com/utah-jazz-jeresy/miye-oni-jersey Jalen Hurts with arm, accuracy and efficiency more in mind. Pickett working with Wilson, Smith and tight end Dallas Goedert behind a still sturdy line is a bold idea, but it's not crazy at all.MORE:16. New Orleans Saints (from Colts through Eagles)Garrett Wilson, WR, Ohio State (5-11, 183 pounds)The Saints should be in the market for plenty of wide receiver depth as there's not much behind Michael Thomas beyond Marquez Callaway, given Tre'Quan Smith leads the rest of the bunch. Now that New Orleans has two first-rounders this year after a trade with Philadelphia, it can also addre s the offensive line con |
