Now that the NFL draft order is set, it's never too early for Mock 1.0.
Bears GM Ryan Pauls, who lost the Giants' spot to Joe Schon, will either keep QB Justin Fields or acquire one of the top prospects, USC's Caleb Williams or North Carolina's Drake Maye. A drama full of ups and downs at the top as people debate whether to do it or not.
You cannot trade with this.
Select non-playoff teams 1-18:
1. Chicago Bears (from Panthers)
QB Caleb Williams (USC)
The Poles took a shot at the stars, resetting the financial quarterback clock while acquiring a second-round pick for Fields.
2. Commander in Washington
QB Drake May (North Carolina State)
The next coach inherits a 6-foot-4, 230-pound prototype with the traits of a franchise quarterback.
3. New England Patriots
QB Jayden Daniels, LSU
The next coach inherits a 6-4, 210-pound Heisman winner and a dual threat will be a big issue.
4. Arizona Cardinals
WR Marvin Harrison Jr., Ohio State University
The 6-4, 205-pound hitter may remind you of AJ Green, a wide receiver from U and a potential Hall of Famer.
5. Los Angeles Chargers
TE Brock Bowers, Georgia
Justin Herbert is a 6-5, 240-pound matchup weapon replacing unrestricted free agent Gerald Everett.
6. New York Giants
OT Olumuyiwa Fashanu, Pennsylvania
A high-character team captain with typical size (6-6, 320) and athleticism, he could bookend LT Andrew Thomas and allow the Giants to move Evan Neal inside.
7. Tennessee Titans
OT Joe Alt, Notre Dame
The 6-8, 320-pound high school tight end has pedigree (his father, John Alt, was an All-Pro tackle for the Chiefs) and committed just three penalties in two years.
8. Atlanta Falcons
OLB Laiatu Latu, UCLA
A 6-5, 265-pounder with pass-rushing talent who must clear a medical check.
9. Chicago Bears
WR Roma Odunze (Washington)
A big-bodied (6-3, 215) target and former track star with 4.37 speed, he will be paired with DJ Moore as the new franchise QB.
10. New York Jets
WR Malik Nabers, LSU
Aaron Rodgers, a dynamic 6-foot, 200-pound game-breaker, will be a favorite to play against Garrett Wilson.
11. Minnesota Vikings
EDGE Dallas Turner Alabama
Re-sign Kirk Cousins and add a smooth pass rusher who should bulk up from 6-4,252 in case Daniel Hunter bolts.
12. Denver Broncos
CB Nate Wiggins, Clemson
At 6-2, 185 pounds, he's a lean man-to-man corner who has drawn comparisons to Darius Slay and bookends Patrick Surtain.
13. Las Vegas Raider
QB Michael Penix Jr. (Washington)
A charismatic 23-year-old leader with an accurate, strong left arm and an injury history, he won't intimidate owner Mark Davis, even if Jimmy GQ doesn't.
14. New Orleans Saints
WR Keon Coleman Florida State University
He's a 6-4, 215-pound X-receiver who should be a red zone threat to replace Michael Thomas.
15. Indianapolis Colts
CB Kool-Aid McKinstry, Alabama
The versatile 6-1, 195-pound high-IQ CB1 has the length and awareness to prevent slot corner Kenny Moore from leaving in free agency.
16. Seattle Seahawks
OT Talese Fouage, Oregon
The 6-6, 333-pound Maurer will replace RT Abe Lucas (knee ailment) and could help in the matchup against the 49ers.
17. Jacksonville Jaguars
EDGE Bralynn Trice, WA
The 6-4, 274-pound enforcer will step up to the boards to complement Josh Allen and Travon Walker.
18. Cincinnati Bengals
DT Jazan Newton, Illinois
A 6-2, 295-pound short-armed disruptor who could replace the UFA leader DJ.
