2023 NFL Draft: Full two-round mock after Super Bowl LVII

The Green Bay Packers have a big decision looming in terms of Aaron Rodgers, as they could be ready to turn the page on the future Hall of Famer. That would mean it will be the Jordan Love Show next season, and while he was a first-round draft pick, there could be some growing pains in Year 1 as the starter.

One of the best ways to help a young quarterback is to have a strong defense, and at pick No. 15, Green Bay adds the premier safety in this class in Brian Branch. Green Bay only has Darnell Savage and Tariq Carpenter under contract for 2023, which means Branch would be the best safety on the roster immediately.

This past week, word came down that the Washington Commanders are handing the keys to Sam Howell this offseason to enter camp as QB1. A fifth-round pick in 2022, Howell must have shown Ron Rivera something across during his Week 17 start against Dallas, a game the Commanders won 26-6, and Howell threw and rushed for a touchdown.

With their quarterback in place, hopefully, for the long-term, Washington needs to address some pressing needs, like the defensive backfield. One player who will shoot up draft boards during the draft process is Kelee Ringo, a player who can play both safety and cornerback, stands 6-foot-4 tall, and should be a punishing presence at the next level.
