PFF Predicts Oregon with Three First Rounders
The NFL Combine is finished and several of Oregon’s top commodities fared well. Oregon is in an interesting spot with some really good players on the cusp of being early round selections.
PFF has updated its mock draft now that the combine is complete. And to my surprise it includes Oregon with three first round draft picks. Of course all eyes are on quarterback Bo Nix and his potential landing spot in this deep quarterback class.
Here is a look at their latest mock draft with those picks.
Round 1 – Pick 16
Seattle Seahawks — Center Jackson Powers-Johnson
Evan Brown is an unrestricted free agent and ranked 27th among starting centers in PFF grade in 2023, while 2023 fifth-round draft pick Olusegun Oluwatimi didn’t show enough to make passing on Powers-Johnson an option.
Impressive as both a run- and pass-blocker, he allowed just four total pressures on 758 pass-blocking snaps in college.
Round 1 – Pick 19
Los Angeles Rams — Quarterback Bo Nix
I ultimately think Nix — or whoever the fourth quarterback in this class winds up being — comes off the board earlier than this, but the fit here makes so much sense to me.

Nix earned the second-highest PFF grade among quarterbacks in this class. Drafting him (and the highs he brings) and letting him learn behind Matthew Stafford for a year would give him the best chance of success at the next level.
Round 1 – Pick 21
Miami Dolphins – Wide Receiver Troy Franklin
The Dolphins are top-heavy at the wide receiver position, with little to get excited about beyond Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle.
Adding a third option like Franklin could help keep this offense ticking. The Oregon standout averaged 3.32 yards per route run last season, trailing only Nabers and Harrison in this class.
