2022 NFL mock draft roundup: A new name enters the mix for the Lions at No. 2

With the second wave of free agency in the books and the 2022 NFL Draft inching closer, it’s logical to think the focus of mock drafts would narrow as rosters fill up. But this offseason has been anything but predictable and at times has been downright illogical.

In fact, I’m not sure I can remember a year that provided less clarity of what’s teams may do at the top of the draft. Things have shifted from the Jacksonville Jaguars taking an edge rusher, to them taking an offensive tackle, back to them taking an edge rusher, specifically Michigan’s Aidan Hutchinson, to the Lions possibly trading up one spot to draft Hutchinson, and now there is the possibility of the Jaguars skipping over Hutchinson in favor of Georgia’s Travon Walker.
