The Senior Bowl continues to boost draft stocks. Always has. Always will. And two big winners from the week that was in Mobile, Alabama were Oklahoma defensive tackle Perrion Winfrey and Baylor safety Jalen Pitre. They appear in this mock draft.
Also included is the fallout from a mock Packers and Broncos trade for Aaron Rodgers that would at least feature Green Bay getting the Broncos' first-round pick in this draft.

NFL Mock Draft
Round 1
Round 1 - Pick 1
Mississippi State
• Jr
• 6'5"
/ 311 lbs
Cross is flying under the radar now because he's a young prospect. But, let me tell you, the upside is through the roof with this Mississippi State product. It wouldn't be crazy if he went No. 1 overall.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 2
Aidan Hutchinson
EDGE
Michigan
• Jr
• 6'7"
/ 268 lbs
Hutchinson feels like the best option here for the Lions. Major talent, big-time value and fits the chippy Dan Campbell culture in Detroit.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 3
LSU
• Jr
• 6'1"
/ 195 lbs
Stingley has All-Pro talent at a valuable position. The Texans secondary is in dire need of a star.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 4
Notre Dame
• Jr
• 6'4"
/ 224 lbs
Hamilton is the closest thing we've seen to Derwin James at the safety spot. The Jets are likely going to have a huge hole at that position by April.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 5
Evan Neal
OL
Alabama
• Jr
• 6'7"
/ 340 lbs
Neal's film isn't spectacular, but he's a spectacular specimen with freaky athleticism. The Giants have to continue to build their offensive line for Mr. Daniel Dimes.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 6
Pittsburgh
• Jr
• 6'3"
/ 220 lbs
Pickett and Matt Rhule were connected in the past when the passer was a recruit, and the Panthers coach understands he has to right the quarterback spot to keep his job.
| |||
From
Chicago Bears
Round 1 - Pick 7
Ohio State
• Jr
• 6'0"
/ 183 lbs
New GM Joe Schoen will look to add weapons for Jones, and Wilson is a dynamic playmaker at the receiver spot.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 8
Kayvon Thibodeaux
EDGE
Oregon
• Jr
• 6'5"
/ 258 lbs
The Falcons are happy to end Thibodeaux's fall. He has all the talent to eventually be a top 5 edge rusher in the NFL. There's just some rawness to his game.
| |||
Mock Trade from
Denver Broncos
Round 1 - Pick 9
Arkansas
• Jr
• 6'2"
/ 225 lbs
Burks has some A.J. Brown to his game and is a little bigger than the Titans star. A weapon for Jordan Love.
| |||
From
Seattle Seahawks
Round 1 - Pick 10
Ikem Ekwonu
OL
NC State
• Jr
• 6'4"
/ 320 lbs
Ekwonu is a devastating masher with outstanding balance. The Jets get more protection for Zach Wilson.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 11
Malik Willis
QB
Liberty
• Jr
• 6'1"
/ 225 lbs
The Commanders have to get more talent into their quarterback room. Willis has supreme gifts.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 12
Cincinnati
• Jr
• 6'3"
/ 190 lbs
Gardner is a tall, Gumby-like cornerback who enters the NFL after a lockdown career at Cincinnati. The Vikings have to shore up the secondary.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 13
Drake London
WR
USC
• Jr
• 6'4"
/ 213 lbs
London separates a lot better than most 6-foot-5 wideouts and plays like Vince Carter on the field.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 14
Auburn
• Jr
• 5'11"
/ 190 lbs
McCreary has short arms. That's the only legitimate knock on his game. He's disruptive, stays in-phase down the field, and has deceptive quicks.
| |||
From
Miami Dolphins
Round 1 - Pick 15
Iowa
• Jr
• 6'2"
/ 314 lbs
Linderbaum is a the rightful heir to the center position in Philadelphia after the dazzling Jason Kelce era.
| |||
From
Indianapolis Colts
Round 1 - Pick 16
Clemson
• Jr
• 6'0"
/ 194 lbs
Booth is a springy cornerback who'll thrive in the Eagles zone-happy scheme.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 17
George Karlaftis
EDGE
Purdue
• Jr
• 6'4"
/ 263 lbs
Karlaftis and Joey Bosa would wreak havoc together in Los Angeles.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 18
Matt Corral
QB
Ole Miss
• Soph
• 6'2"
/ 205 lbs
Corral has some rough edges that need to be smoothed out, but the athleticism and arm talent can't be ignored. The Saints are kinda-sorta in rebuild mode now.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 19
Jermaine Johnson II
EDGE
Florida State
• Jr
• 6'5"
/ 254 lbs
Johnson rides a monstrous Senior Bowl well into the first round, and the Eagles would love to pair him with the also long and explosive Josh Sweat on their defensive line.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 20
Cincinnati
• Jr
• 6'3"
/ 207 lbs
Ridder doesn't have to start immediately, but he'll give the Steelers a young, experienced, and athletic option for the future at quarterback.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 21
Devin Lloyd
LB
Utah
• Jr
• 6'3"
/ 235 lbs
Lloyd is a rocket to the football and will be a tremendous blitzer in Bill Belichick's defense.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 22
Kaiir Elam
CB
Florida
• Jr
• 6'1"
/ 191 lbs
Elam wins with length and physicality at the line. The Raiders have to strengthen the outside positions in their defensive backfield.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 23
Oklahoma
• Soph
• 6'4"
/ 290 lbs
Winfrey had the best overall week of anyone at the Senior Bowl. The tall, long rusher who wins with impressive first-step quickness is the type of defensive lineman the Cardinals love.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 24
Nakobe Dean
LB
Georgia
• Jr
• 5'11"
/ 231 lbs
Dean may fall because, to some teams, he's a bit undersized. The Cowboys should, and likely would, jump at this opportunity.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 25
Alabama
• Jr
• 6'1"
/ 180 lbs
The Bills are ecstatic with Williams falling to them at No. 25. When healthy, he proved to be a dangerous wideout at all three levels of the field because of his suddenness, speed, and ball skills.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 26
Northern Iowa
• Jr
• 6'7"
/ 325 lbs
At 6-6 and 330 pounds with a punishing attitude on the field, Penning fits the exact mold Tennessee wants in its offense.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 27
Zion Johnson
OL
Boston College
• Jr
• 6'3"
/ 316 lbs
Johnson is an experience interior lineman with versatility. The Buccaneers may have to rebuild parts of their blocking unit his offseason.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 28
Washington
• Jr
• 5'11"
/ 193 lbs
The Packers add more youth to their secondary, as they could lose some pieces there in free agency. McDuffie is a big-time athlete who enjoyed a steady career at Washington.
| |||
From
San Francisco 49ers
Round 1 - Pick 29
Central Michigan
• Jr
• 6'6"
/ 303 lbs
Raimann has to get stronger, but he already plays with the balance needed to be a quality edge protector.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 30
Baylor
• Jr
• 6'0"
/ 200 lbs
Pitre is a hyper-twitchy, instinctive safety that would formulate a tremendous pairing with Tyrann Mathieu or replace him in Kansas City.
| |||
Round 1 - Pick 31
Kenyon Green
OL
Texas A&M
• Jr
• 6'4"
/ 325 lbs
Green played multiple positions during his college career but projects best inside to guard where his power is more showcased than on the edge.
| |||
From
Los Angeles Rams
Round 1 - Pick 32
Kyler Gordon
CB
Washington
• Jr
• 6'0"
/ 200 lbs
Gordon is a super-smooth cornerback who'd give the Lions a playmaker who can stay with high-end separators.
