If you need a quarterback at the top of the 2022 NFL draft, you’re better off waiting until next year. If you need a blue-chip defender or a top-shelf blocker, on the other hand, you’re in luck. This year’s draft class is loaded with top talent in the trenches on both sides of the ball, as well as stellar prospects at every level on defense. While the quarterback class is weak, there are a few intriguing prospects who could end up developing into franchise players at the game’s most important position.
