NFL MOCK DRAFT: Combine brings a change atop our board with Jaguars taking Ekwonu

With even more impressive combine outings than usual and some real eye-popping numbers, there’s plenty of movement in our latest mock draft.

1. Jacksonville

Ikem Ekwonu, OT, North Carolina St.

Jumps over Neal as the top offensive line prospect and should help out Trevor Lawrence immensely.

2. Detroit

Aiden Hutchinson, DE, Michigan

Hutchinson is in play for the first-overall pick, but would make a huge impact for Lions in this scenario.

3. Houston

Kyle Hamilton, S, Notre Dame

Wasn’t the most explosive at the combine, but has the measurables and tape to be considered here.

4. N.Y. Jets

Kayvon Thibodeaux, DE, Oregon

Compared himself to an evolutionary Jadeveon Clowney, but he’s probably closer to a Von Miller type.

5. N.Y Giants

Evan Neal, OT, Alabama

Skipped out on combine drills, but with his size and skill there’s no way he falls out of the top five.

6. Carolina

Charles Cross, OT, Mississippi State

We could see the first QB in Willis here, but Cross would help solidify a big need for the Panthers.

7. N.Y. Giants

Travon Walker, DE, Georgia

One of the many Bulldogs prospects that lit up the combine, Walker could leap into the top 10.

8. Atlanta

Garrett Wilson, WR, Ohio State

After Calvin Ridley’s indefinite suspension, the Falcons find themselves in desperate need of a WR.

9. Seattle

Malik Willis, QB, Liberty

After dealing Russell Wilson for this pick, the Seahawks would be wise to take a potential young stud QB.

10. N.Y. Jets

Ahmad Gardner, CB, Cincinnati

The man called Sauce had a stellar combine and could see his stock rise as high as the top five.

11. Washington

Drake London, WR, USC

After landing a veteran QB in Carson Wentz, the Commanders can focus on getting another weapon for him.

12. Minnesota

Jermaine Johnson II, DE, Florida State

Could see his name called in the top 10 and has a real chance at being the third edge rusher taken.

13. Cleveland

Treylon Burks, WR, Arkansas

A tremendous offensive weapon, Burks could do for the Browns what Deebo does for the Niners.

14. Baltimore

Trevor Penning, OT, Northern Iowa

The Ravens offensive line needs a boost after dealing with tons of injuries the past two years.

15. Philadelphia

Derek Stingley Jr., CB, LSU

Concerns are starting to grow after disclosing a foot injury that is still months from fully healing.

16. Philadelphia

Nakobe Dean, LB, Georgia

Eagles need to make an exception and take an off-ball linebacker in the first round – Dean is worth it.

17. L.A. Chargers

Jordan Davis, DT, Georgia

Had literally one of the best combine showings ever, but positional value holds him back.

18. New Orleans

Jameson Williams, WR, Alabama

With Michael Thomas returning, he and Williams could form a devastating receiving duo.

19. Philadelphia

David Ojabo, DE, Michigan

The Eagles could go either side of the line here, but defensive side gets the edge as a bigger need.

20. Pittsburgh

Kenny Pickett, QB, Pittsburgh

The biggest newsmaker of the combine for his small hands, NFL teams reportedly aren’t that concerned.

21. New England

Trent McDuffie, CB, Washington

Facing some big losses in free agency, the Pats would be wise to grab the third-best corner in the draft.

22. Las Vegas

Tyler Linderbaum, C, Iowa

Talent-wise, he could be a top-10 pick, but teams remain hesitant to take interior linemen that high.

23. Arizona

Devonte Wyatt, DT, Georgia

Another Bulldog who tested excellently, but has concerns about his size for the DT role in the NFL.

24. Dallas

Devin Lloyd, LB, Utah

Has seen his stock drop a bit, but he could allow the Cowboys to use Parsons as a pass rusher more.

25. Buffalo

Andrew Booth Jr., CB, Clemson

Even if top corner Tre’Davious White fully recovers from injury, defensive back is one of the Bills’ needs.

26. Tennessee

George Karlaftis, DE, Purdue

Despite their solid defensive run to end the season, the Titans are still in need of pass rushing help.

27. Tampa Bay

Zion Johnson, OL, Boston College

Facing the loss of two key interior linemen, the Bucs could use the tough, versatile Johnson.

28. Green Bay

Boye Mafe, DE, Minnesota

A name that has been creeping up draft boards, the Packers could use help on their D-line.

29. Miami

Breece Hall, RB, Iowa State

His combine scores were similar to that of Saquon Barkley, which could propel him into the first round.

30. Kansas City

Tariq Woolen, CB, UCLA

A stellar showing at the combine could see him leap into the first round and help the needy Chiefs.

31. Cincinnati

Kenyon Green, OG, Texas A&M

Protecting Joe Burrow at all costs should be the Bengals goal next season and this move helps.

32. Detroit

Desmond Ridder, QB, Cincinnati

Jared Goff is not a long-term solution for the Lions, but he can be a holdover while Ridder develops.
