Pundit mock drafts 2027 [with FAILs]

Mike Renner going out on a limb:

Renner's 2027 NFL mock draft: Dolphins tank for Arch Manning in loaded blue-chip class

The Dolphins land Arch Manning at No. 1, Ohio State star Jeremiah Smith heads to the Cardinals and the Jets hold three first-round picks in a loaded 2027 draft projection

Jamari Johnson an outstanding choice for the Pats at 22, though I would go defense.

Among his other picks:

11. Ashton Hampton
15. Will Heldt
16. Trevor Lauck
18. Lance Heard
21. Justin Scott
23. Sahir West
24. Sammy Brown
25. Greg Johnson
27. Jordan Ross
28. Niki Prongos
31. Luke Reynolds

Only 2 QBs (Manning and Moore).

No Chris Cole, KVA Trey'Dez Green Ellis Robinson, KJ Bolden or Tae Johnson.

Definitely taking a stand for guys he likes. Reynolds as TE2 gets my notice.

He's brave for sure.

Another brave mock, this one from Sam Teets:

Manning, Moore lead depleted QB class in 2027 NFL Draft first round mock

It’s time to make everyone mad with a mock draft.

He has the Pats taking IOL Greg Johnson at 22. Fine player, but not with Justin Scott and Chris Cole still available.

Another mock with only 2 1st round QBs, going 1-2.

Of note:

10. Nick Marsh
11. Melvin Siani
12. Colin Simmons
14. Zac Lutmer
17. OJ Frederique
23. Ryan Wingo
24. Bryant Wesco
25. Anto Saka
26. Trevor Lauck
27. Andrew Rappleyea
28. Taylor Wein
30. A'Mauri Washington
31. KJ Bolden
32. Justin Scott

No 1st round LBs. No Trey'Dez Green.

I applaud these guys for the courage of their convictions and pushing some of their favorites, but these are too bold for me, this early.

I prefer mocks like this because you know they're not just copy/pasting the consensus big board.

Another thing I find curious is no Jordan Ross in Teet's mock. Teets had Ross at #13 on his June 30 top 200 big board. If I believe someone is the 13th best overall prospect in the draft, he's going somewhere in the 1st round.

I like the willingness to stand up for prospects, but there is a lot of inconsistency.

Teets had Justin Scott at #9 on his top 200 board, but falling to 32. Weird.

To some extent, ai feel like these guys are just throwing some darts.

Yeah, he has Ross about 10 spots down his Honourable Mentions - Defense.

Maybe his Round 1 are guys he liked from last year's film work. It's early for him. IDK.
