The 2023 NFL draft is nearly here and with a number of QB-hungry teams, it looks almost certain that at least four will go in the first 31 picks. 31? Yes, it’s a shortened round this year as Miami have forfeited their pick. This means that those who are sorted under centre could get a bargain and there is also likely to be some trading, especially early and towards the end as teams look to secure that 5th-year option.<\/p>\n

In our mock we have four going, possibly not as high as expected but that will probably change when the trading starts. Anyway here are our predictions…<\/p>\n
