With the college football season hitting Week 5 and another surprising NFL season right behind in Week 4, it's time to clock with another edition of Sporting News' 2022 NFL mock draft. In our last mock in early September, quarterbacks dominated the picks from 1-32. The current first round of projected selections is QB-heavy again, only with a shakeup of when and where the top prospects at the position are taken. There's also a heavier presence for the four top programs at the moment — Alabama, Georgia, Oregon and Oklahoma. Expanding through the AP top 15, Iowa Notre Dame, Cincinnati, Florida, Ohio State, Ole Miss, Texas A&M and Michigan are also all well represented.
