Mock drafts are always fun exercises in the 'what if.' What I like most about doing them is putting on the GM hat for all 32 teams and figuring out what makes sense, what has the best bang for the buck, and how can I maximize the talent on the roster. For me, it's about understanding the roster and depth chart, as there may be a solution to a perceived question that's already on the roster. Truth be told, most teams do a fantastic job of drafting and acquiring talent. This is arguably the deepest draft class to acquire talent, as evident by my 1,035 page scouting guide (www.footballgameplan.com/2022DraftGuide). I don't have sources or connections, so this mock -- as most should be -- will be focused on what I would do as the GM based on what I view are the team's needs. This isn't based on what I've heard, what I think will happen or what will happen. Now let's get started!
