Free agency will begin Monday with the two days of legal negotiating with impending free agents. That will impact what teams do in the draft. Before free agency starts, we have a first-round mock draft in which three quarterbacks do not go with the first three picks. The New England Patriots take a receiver, presumably addressing quarterback in free agency or via trade, while Heisman winner Jayden Daniels, projected by some to go as high as second overall, falls in this mock draft. Check out each pick below.
