2018 NFL Mock Draft: 6 Surprise quarterback trades cause madness

1 of 33

Let’s take a look at another 2018 NFL Mock Draft, only this time with some big quarterback trades to shake up the first round.

Just about every 2018 NFL Mock Draft so far seems to have at least four or five quarterbacks selected in the first round, and rightfully so when looking at all of the talent at the position from this year’s draft class. In fact, one the first round officially gets underway in less than two weeks, it wouldn’t come as a surprise at all if football fans saw a similar approach to last year in which numerous trades were conducted in the first rounds so teams could fill their need at quarterback, which gives this mock draft a little twist.

Last month, the New York Jets pulled off a big trade with the Indianapolis Colts for the No. 3 pick in a move that most speculated right away was done in order to land a top quarterback since there’s a good chance some of the guys like Sam Darnold or Josh Rosen would have been off the board by the time they were originally up at No. 6. However, when considering that other teams like the Cleveland Browns and the New York Giants are looking for quarterback help as well, the Jets may have to consider making another deal to move up into one of the top two spots.

Of course, the Jets could always get lucky, and have their pick of any quarterback they want if the Browns or Giants decide to focus on different positions. So without wasting anymore time, let’s have a little fun by looking at another NFL Mock Draft with the twist of six big quarterback trades taking place in the first round.
