Cecil Lammey’s official 2022 first-round mock draft is here
Apr 27, 2022, 6:41 AM
It’s the week of the NFL Draft, and that means my one and only mock draft is here! I do this mock every year at the same time, and I will not be including any trades.
Even with almost a dozen picks changing hands in the first round just entering the draft, I still believe we’ll get some trades on Thursday in the first round. As things are currently constructed, this is what I feel teams will do on the first day of the 2022 NFL Draft.
