2022 NFL Mock Draft: Giants grab Kenny Pickett, Vikings get Justin Jefferson a running mate at receiver – CBS Sports

The Jaguars will and should take a long look at Neal regardless of where they pick inside the top 10. He’s a gigantic athletic marvel at left tackle.

Hutchinson wasn’t spectacular against Georgia, but he has the best combination of size, power, athleticism, and pass-rushing moves at the edge rusher spot in this class.

Thibodeaux could easily add 15 pounds to his frame, which he’ll likely need to do once he reaches the NFL. But his burst and high-level flashes are already special.

Cross is a freaky smooth athlete who was outstanding protecting his edge of the Mississippi State offensive line in 2021. He just turned 21 in November. Major potential in this prospect.

I could totally see Joe Judge adoring Pickett during the pre-draft process and the next GM wanting “his guy” at quarterback.

The Panthers have to find their quarterback, or Matt Rhule’s going to be out as head coach. Willis’ project label will buy the current regime more time, and Willis is easily the most naturally talented quarterback in this class.

Stingley would be a tremendous get for the Jets this late in the top 10. He’s long, ultra-athletic and plays with tremendous ball skills.

Giants get a quarterback and a tackle in Round 1. Ekwonu isn’t the longest blocker but plays with a powerful, well-balanced style.

Probably the lowest you’ll see Hamilton, a monstrous safety with more than just ample athletic skills and coverage abilities.

Karlaftis has all the talent to be a perennial Pro Bowler. Plus he boasts an NFL body and plenty of strength right now.

The Broncos ran through a bunch of linebackers in 2021 due to injury, and Dean is the finest second-level defender in the class.

Given Adam Thielen’s age and the fact his 2021 ended on injured reserve, the Vikings should be looking at more receiver help opposite Justin Jefferson. Wilson is a high-end prospect.

Olave is silky smooth when attempting to get open and is quietly an awesome wideout in contested-catch situations.

Lloyd is a rocket to the football at linebacker, and that spot is a position the Eagles need to address early in this draft.

Williams is the biggest riser at the receiver position, and the Saints have to revamp that spot.

Gardner feels like a Ravens type of cornerback. In-your-face, physical, dynamic in man coverage.

Corral may fall due to his leg injury, and the Steelers would be smart to scoop him up at this juncture of Round 1.

Elam is a long, physical cornerback with years of SEC experience. The Raiders have to bring in more talent on the perimeter of their defense.

Booth has light feet and crazy ball skills. The Eagles could add more youth to their secondary.

Ebiketie is chiseled, with great burst, and a stellar array of pass-rushing moves. Nice piece opposite Joey Bosa in Los Angeles.

Ojabo is a hyper-athletic, somewhat raw rusher who’ll instantly replace Derek Barnett in Philadelphia.

Rainmann is going to be a big riser during the pre-draft process because of his size, length, and athleticism. The Dolphins’ offensive line investment continues.

Thomas has steadily improved his production at San Diego State, and the Patriots could use another rusher opposite Matthew Judon on the outside.

Burks is a power forward who’s a nightmare to corral in the open field. Another weapon for Kyler Murray.

The Bills get some size at receiver with the rebounding specialist who’s also dynamic after the catch.

Green is a battle-tested blocker who can be a quality guard immediately in Cincinnati or kick out to tackle. More protection for Joe Burrow.

Bell can win on the outside with his routes and ball skills. Dallas will probably be in the market to add another wideout early in the 2022 draft with Michael Gallup hitting free agency.

The Auburn cornerback pipeline to Tampa Bay continues. McCreary would join fellow Tiger alums Jamel Dean and Carlton Davis in the Buccaneers’ active secondary.

Tyrann Mathieu is unlikely to leave the Chiefs despite his expiring contract, but Kansas City could use more youth at safety. Brisker is a safe prospect.

Ridder is an experienced, athletic quarterback who can take over for the Lions in 2023.

Kirkland is a better pass blocker than he is getting downhill for the run game, but the Titans have to address the edges of their offensive line.

Hall is the type of long, versatile defensive lineman the Packers love.
