Bleacher Report

The No. 1 overall pick for the 2023 NFL is for sale. Why not treat it as such? Typically, Bleacher Report does not project trades as part of the site's mock drafts. Yet most expect some needy franchise to jump into this year's top spot and select one of the premium quarterback prospects. More than one move may occur in this year's top five as teams scramble to get their signal-caller. The Chicago Bears currently own the first selection, but they already have Justin Fields behind center. Instead of simply choosing the highest-rated player on the board, Chicago can leverage its current standing, add a valuable draft asset or two and still land a standout talent a little later in the process.
