Happy Thanksgiving! Here’s a mock draft for the holiday weekend, using the latest updated draft order from Tankathon.
In this edition, Charles McDonald makes the selection of the odd-numbered draft picks while Nate Tice selects the even.
Previous mock drafts: 1.0
1. New York Giants — Cam Ward, QB, Miami
Even before Daniel Jones’ benching and release, the Giants were going to be doing homework on QBs. Now their efforts have hit overdrive. Ward is an aggressive QB with a quick release and a penchant for hunting big plays. He still has things to clean up and needs to learn what throws he can get away with at the next level. But Ward has rapidly improved every year in college and would bring excitement to the position for a team long needing a spark at the spot. — Nate Tice
2. Jacksonville Jaguars — Travis Hunter, CB/WR, Colorado
It’s hard to deny that Hunter is the best player in this draft class with his combination of athleticism, ability to play both sides at a high level and overall love for the game. Hunter is more polished as a cornerback right now, with legitimate shutdown ability on one side of the field. He’s raw in some of the more finer parts of wide receiver play, but that’s exciting because he’s already an incredible playmaker in that area of the field. For a team like the Jaguars that need talent on both sides of the ball, Hunter makes sense. — Charles McDonald
3. Las Vegas Raiders — Shedeur Sanders, QB, Colorado
The Raiders are desperately in need of a franchise quarterback and while they might have to squint a bit to find one in this class, Sanders at least has a chance to be that guy. What he lacks in overall physical talent he makes up for in knowledge of the position and good enough accuracy. That’s better than anything the Raiders have on their roster right now.
4. New England Patriots — Will Campbell, OT, LSU
The Patriots need a lot of help on offense to even get to league average. That’s the reality of the barren cupboard Bill…
