A week into free agency, we have seen a flurry of moves as many veterans switch teams. In addition, the quarterback carousel has been as active as it’s ever been. With the NFL Draft just over a month away, it’s time to see how all of these moves have changed the draft’s landscape. Which teams will opt for a quarterback in round 1? Which of many possible directions will the Jaguars, Lions, and Texans take atop the draft order? Many questions are left unanswered, but having followed free agency closely as well as the reports of many NFL Draft insiders, I’ll take a shot at it in the third version of my 2022 NFL Mock Draft!
