Nothing at all has improved correct at the top, as Trevor Lawrence remains the most likely focus on for the Jets at No. 1 overall. The Jaguars have worked by way of Gardner Minshew, Jake Luton, Mike Glennon and now back to Minshew this period, so they will most likely look to seize a quarterback, much too — Ohio State’s Justin Fields and BYU’s Zach Wilson are the present-day favorites to be the 2nd passer off the board.

The Dolphins, continuing to go up with the Texans’ pick, could look for help for Tagovailoa. SN’s latest mock draft showcased Alabama receiver Devonta Smith likely to Miami to complement DeVante Parker outside and produce some title confusion. LSU’s Ja’Marr Chase could also be a acquiring focus on for the Dolphins.

The Eagles have moved on to Jalen Hurts, at the very least quickly, but reviews advise Carson Wentz just isn’t likely wherever.
