2022 NFL Mock Draft: 2 quarterbacks land in the top-10
By Brad Weiss
player. 32. . Edge. Arizona Cardinals. George Karlaftis. 23
It was a roller coaster of an offseason so far for the Arizona Cardinals, who now appear to be getting things in order, and looking to be one of the better teams in the NFC next season. They have a tremendous talent at the quarterback position in Kyler Murray, and keeping him happy has to be priority No. 1 for this franchise.
In the 2022 NFL Draft, Arizona needs to shift its focus to the other side of the ball, however, bringing in a dynamic pass rusher in George Karlaftis. Who knows how much longer JJ Watt has, and with Chandler Jones going to Las Vegas, Karlaftis is the play here at No. 23 overall.
player. 123. . Wide Receiver. Dallas Cowboys. Jahan Dotson. 24
This offseason, we have heard a lot about the Dallas Cowboys and how they wanted to get rid of Amari Cooper. The brass did not feel they were getting the bang for their buck for the high-priced wideout, so here, they replace him with a cheaper option in the first round.
Jahan Dotson from Penn State is a kid who is going to be a lot of fun to watch at the next level, and he could make Cowboys fans forget about Cooper. He is someone who is going to come in and produce right away, giving Dak Prescott another solid option in the passing game.
Buffalo Bills. Zion Johnson. 25. player. 16. . Offensive Lineman
The Buffalo Bills are going to be one of the best teams in the NFL once again next season, and it seems they are not taking any chances of falling backward. The team recently signed star wideout Stefon Diggs to a long-term extension, paying him a ton of money, and keeping Josh Allen’s favorite target in Western New York.
At pick No. 25 overall, the Bills bring in a player who can help protect Allen, and give him the time he needs to find Diggs downfield. That player is Zion Johnson, a versatile kid who can play inside or out at the next level and is as punishing an offensive lineman as there is in this draft class.
