There are several fascinating quarterback movement dramas with six days until the 2023 NFL draft begins. Aaron Rodgers, Lamar Jackson, and Trey Lance all might be finding new teams sooner than later if the draft is the tipping point for all of those potential trades, which you think it would be. In the case of Aaron Rodgers, for the purposes of this mock draft, he gets the move to the Jets that he wanted. In return, the Packers get New York’s 2023 13th overall pick, and a conditional 2024 second-round pick that could conditionally bump up to a first based on certain stipulations, like Rodgers playing football in 2024 and beyond as opposed to going on some sort of vision quest. Here, we’ll say that Lamar Jackson and the Ravens will eventually come to terms on an agreement that will keep Jackson in Baltimore, though that situation is far from stable at this point — and this could be reflected in my next mock draft as it was in my last one — in this case, conducted with my lovely and talented “4-Down Territory” comrade, Kyle Madson.
