Jeudy's Resurgence and Rodgers' Impact
Jerry Jeudy's impressive return in 2022, where he recorded almost 1,000 receiving yards, strengthens his draft stock. However, the trade of Aaron Rodgers to the New York Jets earlier this year could have significant implications on the draft order.
With Rodgers now playing for the Jets, the Green Bay Packers may prioritize drafting a young quarterback in the early rounds. This could potentially reshuffle the draft order and create unexpected surprises on draft day.
As the NFL Draft approaches, the excitement and anticipation continue to build. The Sporting News' comprehensive seven-round mock draft provides valuable insights into potential draft scenarios and the impact they could have on the league.
