In our latest 2018 NFL Mock Draft we have the Steelers going with a QB, the Raiders going with a wide receiver and the Packers going with a running back and cornerback within the first two rounds.
In this mock, we were a little more conservative with how early quarterbacks will go. The NFL is a reactionary league, which means GMs are looking at the final four of this year’s NFL playoffs and are seeing three average or below average QBs and the all-time greatest QB – who just happened to be drafted in the sixth round.
Finding a franchise quarterback has become a total crapshoot and it’s wiser to build a contender with a top contender in 2018. With that said, here are our first two rounds.
