2022 NFL Draft: The biggest position need for all 32 teams
Cincinnati Bengals top 2022 NFL Draft need: Cornerback
Operation “Protect Joey Franchise” got underway immediately as the NFL’s legal negotiating window opened up, and the Bengals signed three new starters of the offensive line for the 2022 season.
Alex Cappa, La’El Collins, and Ted Karras are now tasked with keeping Burrow upright along with Jonah Williams and possibly 2021 second-round pick Jackson Carman at left guard.
The Bengals could certainly roll with another lineman in round one of the 2022 NFL Draft, but they have effectively eliminated the urgent need there.
Cornerback may be more pressing with the group the Bengals have at the outside positions right now.
Los Angeles Rams top 2022 NFL Draft need: Edge Rusher
The Los Angeles Rams are riding high after winning the Super Bowl, but the aftermath of winning the Super Bowl, unfortunately, involves losing players to other teams.
One of the key losses for the Rams in the 2022 offseason was Von Miller, who signed a six-year deal with the Buffalo Bills.
Ultimately, that loss was absolutely massive and is being overlooked because the Rams have made splashy moves like signing Allen Robinson and Bobby Wagner.
Neither is going to give this team what it needs off the edge.
The Rams won’t pick until round three, and there they will need to seriously consider taking the best available edge rusher to contribute in 2022.
