I haven’t posted a full mock draft since Jan. 23. It’s crazy to think we’re about a month away from the 2022 NFL Draft. Months of prep work for analysts, teams, and prospects will culminate in football’s greatest offseason spectacle. I’ve prepared a three-round mock draft to signal how close we are to crossing the finish line of draft season. If you want to get a better feel for how I stack this year’s prospects without considering scheme tendencies, team needs, etc., check out my latest top 300 big board. Those rankings and player breakdowns provide better insight into this class and how I view prospects than this mock draft. With free agency and blockbuster trades dying down, I felt it was a safe time to start writing league-wide mock drafts again. Admittedly, this was the most frustrating mock draft I’ve assembled this year. You’ll probably notice several oddities outside of the first-round. Scheme fits and organizational tendencies complicated things quite a bit, so I suggest you refer to my latest big board (linked above) for more accurate positional ratings.
