2022 NFL Mock Draft: Thibodeaux goes No. 1, Dallas gets an EDGE

Pick Analysis. LB. Alabama. Christian Harris. 15. 54. Scouting Report. player
15. Philadelphia Eagles (via Indianapolis Colts): Christian Harris, LB, Alabama
Back on the clock for the third time, the Philadelphia Eagles are now up with the selection they gained in the Carson Wentz trade. Of course, there’s a chance this pick ends up being a second-rounder. The stipulation is that Wentz has to play 75 percent of all snaps for them in 2021 or 70 percent and take the Colts to the playoffs to become a day one pick.
As it stands now, he’s in line to play more than 75 percent so the prediction is that they will be on the clock here. And we stick with defense as well, this time grabbing Christian Harris from Alabama.
Harris is capable of playing sideline to sideline and adding him along with their other selections in this mock should completely turn their defense around.
Chris Olave. 16. 124. Scouting Report. Pick Analysis. WR. player. Ohio State
16. Kansas City Chiefs: Chris Olave, WR, Ohio State
The Kansas City Chiefs haven’t been the same team we’re used to seeing this season. The big problem has been defense and that seems to be the way they might lean but at the same time, they could also use another wideout opposite Tyreek Hill.
With Chris Olave sitting there, it’s hard to pass on making the Ohio State wideout the selection. Olave is a solid route-runner who seems to catch everything that comes near him. If their defense is still going to have holes, adding Olave at least allows them to start winning shootouts again.
