As you would expect there have been a few updated mock drafts following the Senior bowl week and game. One of the key analysts in attendance was ESPN’s Matt Miller. On Monday he posted his two round mock draft based on those changes.

Three Ducks were listed in those two rounds but the third one listed might surprise many of you. Here are those Ducks listed.

23. Green Bay Packers

Josh Conerly Jr., OT, Oregon

Left tackle Rasheed Walker has exceeded expectations, considering he was a seventh-round choice in 2022, but he’s also set to be a free agent after next season. The Packers love to invest first-round picks in the trenches, and they can pluck one of my favorite tackles off the board to be their future on the blind side.

Conerly was a high school running back until outgrowing the position. Despite still adding play power to his frame in 2024, he had his best season yet, allowing only one sack and seven pressures in the Big Ten. Getting Conerly at No. 23 would be great value for Green Bay, and the need matches up, too.

28. Detroit Lions

Derrick Harmon, DT, Oregon

The Lions will have hard decisions to make in free agency with guard Kevin Zeitler and defensive tackle Levi Onwuzurike both on expiring contracts. But general manager Brad Holmes should beef up the interior defensive line whether Onwuzurike returns or not.

Harmon would be a perfect replacement or even work well in tandem. The Michigan State transfer had six sacks and 35 pressures for the Ducks, with the right build at 6-foot-5 and 310 pounds to play in a 3-technique or shade the center. His power to handle double-teams in the run game — plus his ability to command attention away from Aidan Hutchinson — would make this a slam-dunk pick.

63. Philadelphia Eagles

Terrance Ferguson, TE, Oregon

Tight end Dallas Goedert has been a huge part of the Eagles’ offense, but he turned 30 on Jan. 3. So it’s time to add a running mate with a priority draft pick much like they did in 2018, when they drafted Goedert to spell Zach Ertz. Ferguson had 43 catches for 591 yards and 3 touchdowns in 2024.

Miller’s Top Ten Mock Draft Picks:

  1. Titans – EDGE Abdul Carter (Penn State)
  2. Browns – WR/DB Travis Hunter (Colorado)
  3. Giants – QB Cam Ward (Miami)
  4. Patriots – DL Mason Graham (Michigan)
  5. Jaguars – DB Will Johnson (Michigan)
  6. Raiders – QB Shedeur Sanders (Colorado)
  7. Jets – OL Will Campbell (LSU)
  8. Panthers – EDGE Jalen Walker (Georgia)
  9. Saints – WR Tetairoa McMillan (Arizona)
  10. Bears – OL Kelvin Banks Jr. (Texas)
