Ladies and gentlemen, the 2022 NFL Draft is finally here…
The Draft is our Super Bowl here at TFTB, and this one is probably one of the most exciting because anybody can go anywhere. There isn’t a top quarterback prospect like a Joe Burrow or a Trevor Lawrence in this class which means all these teams can go in multiple directions. There are so many fun prospects in this class like Walker, Hutchinson, Sauce, Willis, and many more. Not only that but there are so many teams that have multiple first-round picks this year. The Lions, Texans, Jets, Giants, Eagles, Saints, Packers, and Chiefs all have two picks in the first round.
This of course means that there could be multiple trades in this year’s draft, but here at TFTB, we pride ourselves on not doing trades in these mock drafts. So much chaos would occur if that were to happen. Last time, we did a two-round mock draft establishing some talent that could be found in the second round. Now, we are bringing it back to the first round only for this one.
There is one thing that I will say. So much has happened since our last mock draft. For more information on those mocks you can find them here for you all to read and enjoy;
