NFL Mock Draft 1.0: Giants bolster OL, Jets add Aaron Rodgers weapon as QBs fly early

It is never too early for Mock 1.0 now that the NFL draft order has been set. High drama at the top as Bears GM Ryan Poles, who lost out on the Giants job to Joe Schoen, debates between staying with QB Justin Fields or grabbing one of the supposed can’t miss prospects — USC’s Caleb Williams or North Carolina’s Drake Maye.

WR Malik Nabers, LSU A dynamic 6 foot, 200 pound game breaker Aaron Rodgers will love opposite Garrett Wilson.

EDGE Dallas Turner Alabama Re sign Kirk Cousins and add a smooth moving pass rusher who needs to bulk up from 6 4, 252 in the event that Danielle Hunter bolts. CB Nate Wiggins, Clemson A lean 6 2, 185 pound man to man corner who has drawn comparisons to Darius Slay to bookend Patrick Surtain. QB Michael Penix Jr., Washington Charismatic 23 year old leader with a precise, powerful left arm and injury history that won’t scare off owner Mark Davis if Jimmy GQ’s didn’t.
