Jacob’s Final 2019 NFL Mock Draft: Chaos clouds the first round of the draft
The 2019 NFL Draft is almost here. Here’s a look at a final NFL mock draft for all 32 first-round picks.
The draft is almost here, and that means it’s time for my final mock. Here’s a look at predictions for all 32 first-round selections.
1. Arizona Cardinals: QB Kyler Murray, Oklahoma. I’m sticking with this pick despite the smokescreen rumors. If the Cardinals go in a different direction, there will be chaos and trades galore in the top 10.
2. San Francisco 49ers: DE Nick Bosa, Ohio State. San Francisco is likely to take either Bosa or Williams, but they prefer Bosa.

3. New York Jets: DL Quinnen Williams, Alabama. Ed Oliver has gotten some buzz, but I can’t imagine Mike Maccagnan passing on the best available player. Williams plays the same position as Oliver, so Williams is my projected pick here. The Jets could also trade down.
4. Oakland Raiders: DL Ed Oliver, Houston. The Raiders are rumored to make a potential surprise pick here. Oliver would qualify, as many expect them to address their need on the edge first. Oliver is very athletic and would greatly help the Oakland defense.
5. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: LB Devin White, LSU. Kwon Alexander is gone, so White makes a lot of sense. He’s the best linebacker in this draft.
6. New York Giants: EDGE Josh Allen, Kentucky. Could the Giants take a quarterback here? It’s possible, but I think they’re more likely to take the falling Allen and try to trade up with the Lions or Bills to grab Daniel Jones in the top 10.
7. Jacksonville Jaguars: OT Jonah Williams, Alabama. The Jaguars need to protect their franchise quarterback, Nick Foles. Williams would be a huge upgrade at right tackle.
8. Detroit Lions: TE T.J. Hockenson, Iowa. The Lions will almost certainly trade down, but they could target Hockenson if they stay put. They need a tight end and Hockenson is one of the best and safest players in this draft class.
