2022 NFL Mock Draft: Lions surprise with No. 1 pick, Eagles take Treylon Burks

The New Orleans Saints secondary can use another stud

11. New Orleans Saints: Derek Stingley, CB, LSU
Marshon Lattimore has been everything the New Orleans Saints want him to be but they could still use some help across from him. Paulson Adebo isn’t bad but he’s probably best served as the third option — and in the NFC South with some dangerous wideouts, they could use as many top-tier cornerbacks as they can get.
They end up with a potentially elite one here as the No. 1 cornerback, Derek Stingley, is still on the board when it’s their turn to pick. They land the young man who was a star in their own backyard and pairing him with Lattimore could make their secondary one of the best in the entire league.
CB. Andrew Booth, Jr.. player. Scouting Report. Clemson. 12. 54. Pick Analysis
12. Philadelphia Eagles (via Miami Dolphins): Andrew Booth Jr., CB, Clemson
Another cornerback comes off the board as the Philadelphia Eagles are on the clock at No. 12 and take Andrew Booth, Jr. from Clemson. Philly has been up and down this season and while many eyes are on quarterback Jalen Hurts, they have also struggled to slow down elite pass-catchers.
Adding Booth will help in this regard as they cash in on the pick they obtained from the Miami Dolphins last season in their pre-draft trade when the two franchises were playing musical chairs. It’s also the first of three picks for the Eagles, so get used to seeing them in this mock.
