It's the day before the start of the 2023 NFL Draft and no one knows anything after pick No. 1. I had one GM tell me he has fewer than 10 prospects with first-round grades on his 'personal' board. A majority of NFL teams picking in the first round are going to knowingly select someone they have a second-round grade on. Draft-day trades are going to be fascinating. Once we get past the midway point in the draft, will teams be willing to trade up/back into the first round? Or will they wait and not 'waste' current or future draft capital for a player they don't believe is a first-rounder? My last mock had four trades and this one only has one. We will very likely have more trades than represented below, but by the end I was trying to match up players to teams without guessing at so many unknown variables.
