Former Jacksonville Jaguars running back Maurice Jones-Drew is not the end-all authority of draft sapience, but he does have some mock draft advice for the Minnesota Vikings two weeks before the event.
Jones-Drew released a set of predictions on Tuesday, a batch that notably sent quarterbacks Mac Jones to the New England Patriots (via trade-up) and Trey Lance to the Washington Football Team (also via trade-up). The Patriots bartered with the Detroit Lions for the 7th overall pick whereas the Football Team swapped with the Denver Broncos at #9.
For the Vikings, Jones-Drew chose EDGE rusher Jaelan Phillips — a UCLA-turned-Miami alumnus.
