Todd McShay reveals final mock draft ahead of 2022 NFL Draft

The 2022 NFL Draft has finally arrived. To begin the day, ESPN NFL Draft expert Todd McShay has finalized his mock draft for Thursday’s festivities.

Months of research, predictions and scouting went into McShay’s final predictions. Now, all that’s left is to watch the chaos unfold.

“Remember, these predictions are based on what I think a team will do, rather than what I think it should do,” prefaced McShay. “And that’s no simple task this year. There will be plenty of surprises in the opening 32 selections, and the intrigue begins right at No. 1 with the Jaguars. Jacksonville, and the teams that follow, will have options, though. This class is stacked with high-caliber players who should slide right into starting spots and make an impact.”

Here’s Todd McShay’s final mock draft for the 2022 NFL Draft.
