CBS Sports releases new NFL mock draft with updated draft order
As the NFL Playoffs continue with Divisional Round games this weekend, the teams that missed out on the playoffs due to unsuccessful seasons and the others that have already been knocked out with Wild Card losses are turning their attention towards next season.
While many NFL teams are looking to improve throughout the offseason before the 2022 campaign kicks off, they’re looking to bring in some high-caliber players to boost their teams – and that all starts with the NFL Draft, which begins on April 28 in Las Vegas.
Although the draft is still a few months away, CBS Sports has released a new NFL mock draft that reflects an updated draft order.
Here’s a look at the prospects CBS Sports has going in the first round of the 2022 NFL Draft from Nos. 1 to 32.
