3GML Mock Draft 3.0

As we roll into March, the combine is over, free agency is ahead, and the draft is next month!  Below is our 2 round mock draft for the 3GML.

ROUND ONE
1. Cincinnati - QB Joe Burrow
2. Washington - DE Chase Young
3. Green Bay - CB Jeff Okudah The Packers don't have a starting right tackle yet, but early signs point to them addressing that in free agency.  If they do, they take the most talented corner in this draft and get the man who will eventually take over for Casey Hayward.
4. New York Giants - OT Mekhi Becton
5. LA Chargers - QB Tua Tagovailoa
6. Detroit - LB Isaiah Simmons
7. Carolina - QB Justin Herbert
8. Arizona - OT Andrew Thomas
9. Jacksonville - DT Derrick Brown
10. Cleveland - OT Jedrick Wills
11. New York Jets - OT Tristan Wirfs
12. Las Vegas - WR Jerry Jeudy
13. San Francisco - QB Jordan Love I did it.  I gave the Niners a quarterback.  As of right now, they don't have anyone other than Kyle Lauletta on their roster.  Yes, the could bring Teddy Bridgewater back, but they could also draft their young arm of the future.  Love has a cannon and will be hitting Julio Jones down the sideline for years to come.
14. Tampa Bay - DT Javon Kinlaw
15. Denver - WR CeeDee Lamb
16. Atlanta - DE K'Lavon Chaisson
17. Dallas - CB CJ Henderson
18. Green Bay - WR Henry Ruggs Green Bay just traded for Stefon Diggs to pair with Juju Smith-Schuster and Brandin Cooks, but both have more question marks than answers moving forward.  Ruggs allows the Packers some flexibility at receiver.  Can you imagine what Aaron Rodgers can do with Ruggs' speed?
19. Las Vegas - LB Patrick Queen
20. Houston - S Xavier McKinney After a flurry of trades this week, the Texans shored up their offensive line leaving safety as their glaring need.  Rumors are circulating they trade back here, but they could also go out and get the number one safety on the board.
21. Philadelphia - CB CJ Henderson
22. Buffalo - WR Justin Jefferson
23. New England - OT Austin Jackson
24. New Orleans - QB Jacob Eason
25. Miami Dolphins - LB Kenneth Murray The Dolphin s need a field general in their linebacker corps.  Kenneth Murray is that man.  Miami has made a ton of moves this off-season and is already better on paper.  The one area they haven't improved? Linebacker.
26. Miami - RB Jonathan Taylor
27. Green Bay - OT Josh Jones Yes, we said Green Bay addresses tackle in free agency, but they still need depth.  Jones can learn the game behind a veteran and take over in a year or two.
28. Baltimore - DE Yetur Gross-Matos
29. Tennessee - CB Kristian Fulton
30. San Francisco - WR Denzel Mims The arrow is pointing upwards after a solid senior bowl and great combine performance for Mims.  He's shown he deserves to be taken in the first round and San Francisco is happy to add him here.  He's instantly an impact player for the 49ers next season.
31. Minnesota - CB Trevon Diggs
32. Kansas City - RB D'Andre Swift

ROUND TWO
33. Cincinnati - DE AJ Epenesa
34. Indianapolis - WR Brandon Aiyuk
35. Detroit - DT Ross Blacklock
36. New York Giants - S Grant Delpit
37. Jacksonville - DE Terrell Lewis
38. Carolina - CB Noah Igbinoghene
39. LA Chargers - S Antoine Winfield Jr.
40. Arizona - WR Tee Higgins
41. Cleveland - WR Laviska Shenault Jr.
42. Miami Dolphins - CB Jeff Gladney - The Dolphins are really lacking at the Corner position.  They have their zone guy in Desmond King, but need someone who can trail a WR and play man.  Gladney will be asked to do just that.
43. Chicago - S Terrell Burgess
44. Indianapolis - DT Neville Gallimore
45. Tampa Bay - OG Cesar Ruiz
46. Denver - OT Lucas Niang
47. Atlanta - TE Cole Kmet
48. New York Jets - C Lloyd Cushenberry
49. Pittsburgh - DE Bradlee Anae
50. Green Bay - WR Donovan Peoples-Jones Is this the best wide receiver draft in over a decade? Yes.  Then why not load up while you can?
51. Dallas - DT Justin Madubuike
52. Los Angeles Rams - OT Ben Bartch
53. Philadelphia - WR KJ Hamler
54. Buffalo - DE Curtis Weaver
55. Atlanta - RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire
56. LA Chargers - OG Jonah Jackson
57. Seattle - OT Matt Peart
58. Minnesota - WR Jalen Reagor
59. Seattle - OG Matt Hennessy
60. Baltimore - WR Chase Claypool
61. Tennessee - DE Julian Okwara
62. San Francisco - DL Raekwon Davis San Francisco starts the rebuild of their interior defensive line with the powerful player Davis.  He has all the physical traits to be successful on Sundays.
63. Kansas City - CB Jaylon Johnson
64. Green Bay - RB Cam Akers Green Bay saw the departure of Todd Gurley and the likely departure of Kenyan Drake this offseason.  Pair that with Damien Williams in his contract year and you get a definite need at running back.  Akers will get a year with Williams before he is asked to take on more of the load.
