There is work to be done for essentially every prospect not named Jeremiah Smith, but there has already been a shake-up among the quarterback options. For the sake of this exercise, the assumption is that Texas' Arch Manning and Notre Dame's C.J. Carr will go back to school.
Manning has not developed to the point where he is probably comfortable taking the next step, but may also not be interested in another year tied to Steve Sarkisian. Carr has shown more comfort in the pocket this year, but is not all the way there yet. He is slowly evolving from a robot afraid to do wrong into a more natural passer.
It is entirely possible he reaches that final form by the end of the season, but the Irish likely could offer a tantalizing package to return for another run at the College Football Playoffs. The draft order was determined by using Super Bowl odds, in reverse order, from FanDuel Sportsbook as of 10/17. It is also worth noting that the Browns have two first-round picks and the Jets have three first-round picks as part of prior trades involving veteran players.
Without further ado, let's kick this off! The 2027 NFL Draft will take place April 29-May 1 at the National Mall in Washington D.C.. You can find more draft coverage at CBSSports.com, including weekly mock drafts and updated prospect rankings.
Alec Pierce is not totally proven despite signing a massive contract this offseason. He has missed most of the season recovering from an injury, and the Colts are short-staffed in his absence. Harris is a big body with great speed, who could give them another field stretcher to open the field for Tyler Warren and Josh Downs.
The Packers were talking walk-ins on their offensive line after early-season struggles. They have hired every lineman they found waiting in the unemployment line. Although those are Band-Aids to a larger issue, they reinvest in the unit through the draft.
