2023 NFL Mock Draft From Brendan Donahue

Brendan Donahue, the #1 most accurate mock drafter over the past five NFL seasons according to The Huddle Report, gives you his 2023 NFL Mock Draft — making predictions for every team and every pick in the first round. 

Reminder: there are 31 first-round picks this season with the forfeiture of the Miami Dolphins’ first-round pick.

2023 NFL Mock Draft

Earlier 2023 NFL mock drafts from Brendan Donahue:

• NFL Mock Draft 3.0 (March 22)
• NFL Mock Draft 2.0 (March 16)
• NFL Mock Draft 1.0 (March 8)

1. Carolina Panthers, Top Draft Pick Prediction: C.J. Stroud, QB, Ohio State

Previous 3.0 Mock Draft selection: Stroud

Reports suggest that the Panthers have put themselves in a similar situation as the San Francisco 49ers did two years ago when they put together a huge trade package to move up in the draft ahead of time to secure a quarterback but weren’t necessarily 100% sure which one. While there may be a discussion between now and the draft, I think the new offensive minds in the building get the guy they prefer in Stroud and he is currently -300 to be the first overall pick on BetMGM.

Watch this video of McCown fawning over CJ Stroud and it will be pretty readily apparent who the Panthers just traded up for.https://t.co/Sgsiv8260i

— Brett Kollmann (@BrettKollmann) March 10, 2023

Who calls the shots in the Panthers’ draft room?

GM Scott Fitterer (third year) will have final say over the Panthers roster for the first time in his tenure, taking that role from Matt Rhule. Despite the new power structure, head coach Frank Reich is expected to have significant input. 

2. Houston Texans, Top Draft Pick Prediction: Bryce Young, QB, Alabama

Previous 3.0 Mock Draft selection: Young

Arguably the best quarterback on the field in this draft class goes to a team that was 31st in offensive DVOA in 2022. While incumbent quarterback Davis Mills showed promise his rookie year, he seemed to take a bit of a step back last season, ranking 32nd in EPA per play last season. Young is currently -200 to be the second overall pick in the draft.

DeMeco Ryans said Bryce Young “has done it at the highest level” and he’s not concerned with his size.

— John McClain (@McClain_on_NFL) March 27, 2023

Who calls the shots in the Texans’ draft room?

GM Nick Caserio (third year) has final say over the roster. In previous years, executive VP Jack Easterby (third year) was heavily involved in all aspects of the organization, but Easterby has since been fired, potentially giving more control to Caserio. With DeMeco Ryans in his first year as a head coach, Caserio likely has firm control over the roster. 

3. Arizona Cardinals, Top Draft Pick Prediction: Will Anderson, EDGE, Alabama

Previous 3.0 Mock Draft selection: Anderson

With Chicago trading all the way down to nine, the Cardinals now find themselves in the driver’s seat for quarterback-needy teams trying to trade up in the draft. I expect them to be open for business and potentially move down for the right price but a team that was 24th in defensive DVOA and 24th in sacks could certainly use a defensive prospect who has been compared to Von Miller. Anderson is currently the favorite to be the third pick on BetMGM at -110.

Who calls the shots in the Cardinals’ draft room?

First-year GM Monti Ossenfort likely has final say over the Cardinals roster, though the team has not officially confirmed this. Ossenfort is a former director of college scouting (Patriots) and director of player personnel (Titans), and his assistant GM is former Lions director of college scouting Dave Sears.  

4. Indianapolis Colts, Top Draft Pick Prediction: Anthony Richardson, QB, Florida

Previous 3.0 Mock Draft selection: Richardson

No quarterback under 6-foot-4 or pounds has started the season for Indianapolis since Chris Ballard has been GM. Richardson’s official measurements at the combine: 

Height – 6-foot-4
Weight – 244 pounds

Owner Jim Irsay was quoted as saying, “we favored an offensive coach knowing we’re going to have to find a young quarterback to develop.” Most agree that with the right development, Richardson could have the highest ceiling of all the quarterbacks in this class.

Who Calls the Shots in Colts Draft Room?

GM Chris Ballard (seventh year) has final say over roster construction.

5. Seattle Seahawks, Top Draft Pick Prediction: Tyree Wilson, EDGE, Texas Tech

Previous 3.0 Mock Draft selection: Wilson

Wilson has the size and athletic traits that Seattle has been known to target.

HT: 6-foot-6 (92nd percentile)
WT: 271 (67th percentile)
Arm: 35 5/8 (96th percentile)

While he did not work out as his pro day, he will host a private workout in April.

Who calls the shots in Seahawks’ draft room?

Head coach Pete Carroll (14th year) has final say over personnel decisions, but works in tandem with GM John Schneider (14th year).

6. Detroit Lions, Top Draft Pick Prediction: Devon Witherspoon, CB, Illinois

Previous 3.0 Mock Draft selection: Jalen Carter, iDL

Ranked 28th in defensive DVOA look for Detroit to address that side of the ball with their first pick. While Christian Gonzalez is considered the top cornerback on most draft boards, Witherspoon may have his name at the top of a few as well. Last season, he earned a 92.0 Grade by PFF and they added: “his senior year tape was as good as we’ve seen in our nine years of grading.”

Illinois’s Devon Witherspoon was dominant in coverage last season. pic.twitter.com/ptsQkasf87

— CFB Film Room (@CFBFilmRoom) February 28, 2023

Who calls the shots in Lions’ draft room?

GM Brad Holmes (third year) has final say over personnel decisions. This will be his first year working without his director of college scouting, Dave Sears, who took the assistant GM job in Arizona. 

7. Las Vegas Raiders, Top Draft Pick Prediction: Jalen Carter, iDL, Georgia

Previous 3.0 Mock Draft selection: Christian Gonzalez, CB

The Raiders ranked 31st in defensive DVOA so while Will Levis is certainly a possibility, the Raiders pass on a quarterback here. Instead, they take a chance on the very talented Carter to be the anchor on their defensive line and hope his off-the-field issues are behind him.

.@MoveTheSticks thinks @GeorgiaFootball DT Jalen Carter is the best overall prospect in this year’s draft class 👀

(@breadmanjalen) pic.twitter.com/Za0OSOmRcO

— NFL GameDay (@NFLGameDay) January 29, 2023

Who calls the shots in Raiders’ draft room?

GM Dave Ziegler (second year, spent previous nine seasons in Patriots front office) has final say over the roster, though head coach Josh McDaniels (second year) likely has significant input. McDaniels and Ziegler were college teammates at John Carroll and it was McDaniels who helped Ziegler get his first NFL job with the Broncos when McDaniels was their head coach.

8. Atlanta Falcons, Top Draft Pick Prediction: Christian Gonzalez, CB, Oregon

Previous 3.0 Mock Draft selection: Nolan Smith, EDGE

The Falcons could go in a multitude of directions. They did have the 30th-ranked defense per DVOA last season so I expect them to prioritize that side of the ball with their first pick. Gonzalez put up elite testing numbers earning a 9.99 RAS at the combine and is currently -190 at DraftKings to be the first defensive back selected.

Who calls the shots in the Falcons’ draft room?

GM Terry Fontenot (second year) has the final say over roster construction.

9. Chicago Bears, Top Draft Pick Prediction: Paris Johnson Jr., OT, Ohio State

Previous 3.0 Mock Draft selection: Peter Skoronski, OL

After missing out on Mike McGlinchey, head coach Matt Eberflus was among those closely watching Ohio State offensive tackle Paris Johnson Jr. at Ohio State’s pro day. Johnson only allowed three sacks on 882 pass block snaps in his career and could play left or right tackle on day one.

Who calls the shots in the Bears’ draft room?

GM Ryan Poles (second year) has final say over roster construction. Poles was previously with the Chiefs since 2009, most recently working under GM Brett Veach as director of player personnel.

10. Philadelphia Eagles, Top Draft Pick Prediction: Nolan Smith, EDGE, Georgia

Previous 3.0 Mock Draft selection: Will Levis, QB (projected trade to Commanders)

Philadelphia and GM Howie Roseman went with players from the Georgia defense with two of their first three picks in last year’s draft with Jordan Davis and Nakobe Dean. In this draft, do they pair them up with the former Bulldogs captain who per the NFL Network, is the heaviest player to have a vertical over 40″ and a 40-yard dash less than 4.4 in NFL combine history? He has also been comped to current Eagle Hasaan Reddick.

Brought up on broadcast yesterday, but Georgia pass rusher Nolan Smith has an extremely close #RAS athletic comp to Eagles pass rusher Haason Reddick. Nearly the same size, but faster and more explosive. pic.twitter.com/GcTJjSz2ET

— Kent Lee Platte (@MathBomb) March 3, 2023

Who calls the shots in the Eagles’ draft room?

GM Howie Roseman (12th year) has final say over the roster. Roseman has held the title of general manager and/or executive vice president of football operations since 2010, however, he did not control the roster during Andy Reid’s or Chip Kelly’s tenures. Roseman gained full control of personnel decisions in 2016.

11. Tennessee Titans, Top Draft Pick Prediction: Broderick Jones, OT, Georgia

Previous 3.0 Mock Draft selection: Paris Johnson Jr., OT

The Titans had the worst-ranked offensive line last season per PFF and recently cut former starting tackle Taylor Lewan. Jones impressed scouts at the combine with a 9.39 RAS to go along with his on-field production last season at Georgia where he had 470 pass block snaps and zero sacks allowed per PFF.

Who calls the shots in the Titans’ draft room?

The Titans have refused to address this question since hiring Ran Carthon this offseason. Former GM Jon Robinson had final say, but it was Robinson who hired Mike Vrabel, making that distinction easier. Vrabel’s tenure may now give him more sway than Carthon, who was previously the 49ers’ director of player personnel. Director of college scouting Jon Salge (seventh year) will likely be heavily involved as well. 

12. Houston Texans, Draft Pick Prediction: Jaxon Smith-Njigba, WR, Ohio State

Previous 3.0 Mock Draft selection: Smith-Njigba

After taking Bryce Young with their first pick, the Texans need to give him some real weapons to work with. With GM Nick Caserio having come from New England where they prioritize 3 cone drill and short shuttle numbers, he will likely have JSN at the top of his WR board.

Minus Brandin Cooks, the Texans’ wide receivers now include:
🏈Nico Collins
🏈Robert Woods
🏈Noah Brown
🏈Amari Rodgers
🏈John Metchie III

— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) March 19, 2023

How great is Jaxon Smith-Njigba’s short-area quickness and agility?

JSN
3cone: 6.57 / Short Shuttle: 3.93

Julian Edelman
3cone: 6.62 / 3.92

Different players, but that’s legendary shiftiness.

— Matt Miller (@nfldraftscout) March 6, 2023

13. New York Jets, Top Draft Pick Prediction: Myles Murphy, EDGE, Clemson

Previous 3.0 Mock Draft selection: Broderick Jones, OT

It seems like this pick is the hold-up with the Aaron Rodgers trade but whether it’s the Jets or the Packers making this pick, Murphy would be a viable option. Murphy did not work out at the combine or at the Clemson pro day due to a hamstring injury, but he is planning on having his own pro day in early April and I expect him to garner a lot of late buzz heading into the draft.

Who calls the shots in the Jets’ draft room?

GM Joe Douglas (fifth year) has final say over personnel decisions.

14. New England Patriots, Top Draft Pick Prediction: Joey Porter Jr., CB, Penn State

Previous 3.0 Mock Draft selection: Devon Witherspoon, CB

The Patriots played the fifth-highest rate of man coverage and Porter Jr. played almost half his snaps in man coverage at Penn St. last season. Mel Kiper said of the Porter/Patriots fit “He’s physical – – he’ll tackle in the run game. I see Porter as a player who could thrive for Bill Belichick’s defense.”

Who calls the shots in the Patriots’ draft room?

Head coach Bill Belichick (23rd year) has final say over personnel decisions. Matt Groh was promoted to director of player personnel last offseason after one season as the Patriots’ director of college scouting. Aside from Belichick, this remains a relatively inexperienced front office due to the recent losses of Nick Casserio (Texans) and Dave Ziegler (Raiders). 

15. Green Bay Packers, Top Draft Pick Prediction: Lukas Van Ness, EDGE, Iowa

Previous 3.0 Mock Draft selection: Van Ness

The Packers tied for the fifth-fewest sacks in the NFL last season so they will look to upgrade that unit with a prototypical Brian Gutekunst draft prospect. 

Lukas Van Ness measurements:

6-foot-5
272 lbs
11″ hands
34″ arm
84″ wing span
Most importantly a RAS 9.74 which is in the 97th percentile

Who calls the shots in the Packers’ draft room?

GM Brian Gutekunst (fifth year) has final say over the roster, but Gutekunst, director of football operations Russ Ball, and head coach Matt LaFleur all report directly to president/CEO Mark Murphy. This structure theoretically gives more personnel influence to Ball and LaFleur than if they reported directly to the GM, as most front offices are organized.

16. Washington Commanders, Top Draft Pick Prediction: Peter Skoronski, OL, Northwestern

Previous 3.0 Mock Draft selection: Calijah Kancey, iDL (projected trade to Eagles)

There has been much debate about whether Skoronski will be a tackle or guard at the next level due to his arm length. The worst-case scenario is he has to move to guard, where most believe he has the potential to be one of the best in the league.

Who calls the shots in the Commanders’ draft room?

Head coach Ron Rivera (fourth year) has final say, with input from GM Martin Mayhew (fourth year)

TRADE: 17. Minnesota Vikings, Top Draft Pick Prediction: Will Levis, QB, Kentucky

Previous 3.0 Mock Draft selection: Joey Porter Jr. (to Steelers)

Kirk Cousins offered to take a discount in an extension with the #Vikings this off-season.

The team turned it down.

Why? Minnesota’s front office is “intrigued” by the idea of a young QB on a rookie deal.

— vikesinsider (@vikesinsider) March 26, 2023

It’s no secret that Minnesota has been doing its homework on the quarterbacks in this draft and Levis is the most likely candidate to start to slip in the draft into a reasonable range for the Vikings to trade up.

Who calls the shots in the Vikings’ draft room?

GM Kwesi Adofo-Mensah (second year) has final say over the roster. He has a background in analytics and spent the previous two seasons working under Andrew Berry in Cleveland. He was the director of football research & development under Trent Baalke in San Francisco prior to joining the Browns.

18. Detroit Lions, Draft Pick Prediction: Michael Mayer, TE, Notre Dame

Previous 3.0 Mock Draft selection: Myles Murphy. EDGE

Mayer put up impressive receiving numbers at Notre Dame that included 11.9 yards per reception and 16 touchdowns, but it was his run blocking that was equally as impressive and makes him maybe the most complete tight end in the class and has the leadership qualities that Dan Campbell often talks about.

Thoroughly impressed with Notre Dame TE Michael Mayer’s interview at the #NFLCombine.

Mayer is only 21 but spoke about his leadership during his time with the Fighting Irish.

We have him ranked as the best TE in this year’s class. pic.twitter.com/4ud0EmFpAt

— uSTADIUM (@uSTADIUM) March 3, 2023

19. Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Top Draft Pick Prediction: Darnell Wright, OT, Tennessee

Previous 3.0 Mock Draft selection: Nolan Smith, EDGE

Tampa Bay released last year’s starting left tackle Donovan Smith and could move Tristan Wirfs over from right tackle to take his spot. That would leave an opening for Darnell Wright to move into and start day one. In 507 pass block snaps at right tackle last season at Tennessee, Wright did not allow a sack and only two QB hits per PFF.

Tennessee OT Darnell Wright keeps acing every test.
Excellent fall season vs elite comp ✔️
Strong all star game week ✔️
Impressive Combine workout ✔️

I think he belongs in the discussion as the top OT in this class.

— Daniel Jeremiah (@MoveTheSticks) March 8, 2023

Who calls the shots in the Buccaneers’ Draft Room?

GM Jason Licht (10th year) has final say over the roster. 

20. Seattle Seahawks, Draft Pick Prediction: Jordan Addison, WR, USC

Previous 3.0 Mock Draft selection: Addison

The Seahawks clearly have a very productive duo at wide receiver already in DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett, who both had over 1,000 yards receiving last season. However, they have struggled to find a third receiver to go along with them. Addison, who is a former Biletnikoff winner, didn’t have the most impressive performance at the combine, but does have some of the most impressive tape of any wide receiver in the class.

21. Los Angeles Chargers, Top Draft Pick Prediction: Zay Flowers, WR, Boston College

Previous 3.0 Mock Draft selection: Bryan Breese, iDL

The Chargers could use another weapon for Justin Herbert. Flowers finished ninth in YAC in the country and earned comps to Steve Smith Sr. from… Steve Smith Sr. himself gives them a more explosive option at the position than currently on their roster.

He’s a bigger dog than me.”

The similarities between @ZayFlowers and @SteveSmithSr89 are uncanny

— NFL (@NFL) March 4, 2023

Who calls the shots in the Chargers’ draft room?

GM Tom Telesco (10th year) has final say over personnel decisions.

22. Baltimore Ravens, Top Draft Pick Prediction: Quentin Johnston, WR, TCU

Previous 3.0 Mock Draft selection: Johnston

Baltimore GM Eric DeCosta went on record talking about Baltimore’s problems drafting wide receivers: “If I had an answer, that would probably mean I would have some better receivers. … We’re gonna keep swinging.” 

Johnston certainly has the physical tools worthy of taking a swing at:

6-foot-2
208 lbs
33 5/8 arms
81 5/8 wingspan
9 5/8 hands
40.5 vertical
11’2 broad jump

Who calls the shots in the Ravens’ draft room?

GM Eric DeCosta (fifth year as GM, 26th year in organization) controls roster construction and has maintained a similar approach to his former boss Ozzie Newsome.

TRADE: 23. Pittsburgh Steelers, Top Draft Pick Prediction: Deonte Banks, CB, Maryland

Previous 3.0 Mock Draft selection: Banks (to Vikings)

With Joey Porter Jr. off the board when they were on the clock at 17, Pittsburgh trades back to obtain additional draft capital and still gets one of the top corners in the draft. Throughout his entire career at Maryland, Banks only allowed 50+ yards in a game once and then registered a ridiculous 9.99 RAS at the combine.

Who calls the shots in the Steelers’ draft room?

GM Omar Khan (first year) takes over after Kevin Colbert ran the team for 23 years. Khan likely has final say over the roster, though assistant GM Andy Weidl (first year) will have significant input, as will head coach Mike Tomlin. Khan has been with Pittsburgh since 2001, but his background is in the administrative side of the team. Weidl joins the team from the Eagles, where he was vice president of player personnel and has extensive experience in scouting. Sheldon White (first year) serves as the director of college scouting, and will likely also play a large role due to Khan’s inexperience in that area. 

24. Jacksonville Jaguars, Top Draft Pick Prediction: Adetomiwa Adebawore, DL, Northwestern

Previous 3.0 Mock Draft selection: Adebawore

GM Trent Baalke surprised the draft community last year by going with elite physical traits of Travon Walker over on-field production. Adebawore certainly fits his prototype with elite testing numbers where he ran a faster forty time than Walker while weighing 10 pounds more.

The biggest riser on the Consensus Big Board (post-combine): +27 spots

Northwestern DL Adetomiwa Adebawore
6-2, 282 | 33 7/8 arm | 10 1/2 hand

4.49 40 (1.61 10s) | 37-5 vert | 10-5 broad@TheAthleticNFL @amock419 @NUFBFamily https://t.co/cBmd4V00tF pic.twitter.com/T0qki2xVRb

— Nick Baumgardner (@nickbaumgardner) March 16, 2023

Who Calls the Shots in Jaguars Draft Room?

GM Trent Baalke (third year) and head coach Doug Pederson (second year) supposedly share control of the roster. The Jaguars have not publicly stated who has the final say 一 though it’s likely Baalke, considering he participated in the hiring of Pederson.

25. New York Giants, Top Draft Pick Prediction: Bryan Breese, iDL, Clemson

Previous 3.0 Mock Draft selection: Zay Flowers, WR

The Giants’ reported interest in A’Shawn Robinson makes it clear that they are looking to address their 32nd ranked defense against the run by DVOA. Bresee, who was an All-American in 2020 and considered the top recruit in the country coming out of high school, has the potential to be an elite DT at the next level if he can stay healthy.

His measurements at his pro day:

6-foot-5, 302 lbs
28 bench press reps
4.45-second 20-yard shuttle
7.41-second 3 cone drill

Who calls the shots in the Giants’ draft room?

GM Joe Schoen (second year) has final say over roster decisions. He spent the previous five seasons as the assistant general manager to Brandon Beane in Buffalo.

26. Dallas Cowboys, Top Draft Pick Prediction: Bijan Robinson, RB, Texas

Previous 3.0 Mock Draft selection: Robinson

This one is too perfect, right? With Ezekiel Elliott being waived and Tony Pollard just on a franchise tag and coming off a serious leg injury that may cause him to miss some of training camp, it would be hard for Jerry Jones to pass up on the talent of Robinson.

.@danorlovsky7 thinks the Cowboys have one more big move coming 😯

“If you get a Bijan Robinson type of player, that people have said ‘the next LaDainian Tomlinson type,’ we’re looking at an offense that is explosive.” pic.twitter.com/BeT4IPz9Zz

— NFL on ESPN (@ESPNNFL) March 20, 2023

Who calls the shots in the Cowboys’ draft room?

Director of player personnel Stephen Jones effectively acts as the general manager with significant input from VP of player personnel Will McClay. Obviously, owner Jerry Jones has been known to step in and make decisions as well.

27. Buffalo Bills, Top Draft Pick Prediction: Dawand Jones, OT, Ohio State

Previous 3.0 Mock Draft selection: Jones

The Bills addressed the interior of their offensive line by signing Connor McGovern from Dallas, now they look to upgrade at tackle. Spencer Brown allowed a 6.6% pressure rate when lined up at right tackle which ranked 31st out of 36 players with at least 200 pass protection snaps at right tackle. Insert Jones, who in 2022 had 419 pass snaps and did not allow a sack and only five total hurries. He also measured in at the combine at:

6-foot-8
374 pounds
87 7/8″ wing span
11 5/8’’ hand span

Who calls the shots in the Bills’ draft room?

GM Brandon Beane (seventh year) officially has final say over the roster, but head coach Sean McDermott’s opinion is believed to carry equal weight. McDermott and Beane were hired together in 2017 and also worked together for six seasons in Carolina.

28. Cincinnati Bengals, Top Draft Pick Prediction: Dalton Kincaid, TE, Utah

Previous 3.0 Mock Draft selection: Michael Mayer, TE

The Bengals were the first team to have a formal meeting with Utah TE Dalton Kincaid and Kincaid said, “I really loved that meeting and the coaching staff.” While they did recently sign Irv Smith, it was just a one-year deal so look for them to still address the long term future of the position. Kincaid just got medically cleared and is working on getting healthy to participate in minicamps.

Who calls the shots in the Bengals’ draft room?

Director of Player Personnel Duke Tobin has final say over roster construction.

29. New Orleans Saints, Top Draft Pick Prediction: Will McDonald, EDGE, Iowa St.

Previous 3.0 Mock Draft selection: McDonald

Although McDonald was limited at the combine due to reportedly having a fever of 104 degrees, he still participated in some drills, including recording the third-longest broad jump for an edge player since 2009. 

Who calls the shots in the Saints’ draft room?

GM Mickey Loomis likely has final say, though the power dynamic is unclear since the departure of Sean Payton (who previously had final say). Since Loomis does not have a background in scouting, assistant GM and director of college personnel Jeff Ireland likely has substantial input in the draft.

30. Philadelphia Eagles, Draft Pick Prediction: Kalijah Kancey, iDL, Pittsburgh

Previous 3.0 Mock Draft selection: Brian Branch, DB

After taking the defensive tackle everyone was buzzing about at the combine last year in Jordan Davis, GM Howie Roseman may go back to the same strategy again with this year’s standout in Kancey.

.@Pitt_FB defensive linemen are built FAST. 💨

— Sunday Night Football on NBC (@SNFonNBC) March 2, 2023

31. Kansas City Chiefs, Top Draft Pick Prediction: Anton Harrison, OT, Oklahoma

Previous 3.0 Mock Draft selection: Harrison

The Chiefs decided not to tag starting left tackle Orlando Brown, however, they did sign Jawaan Taylor to take over one of their vacant tackle positions. They still need to address the other whether Taylor plays left or right. Harrison played 803 snaps at left tackle and 53 at right tackle last season at Oklahoma allowing only one sack per PFF.

Who calls the shots in the Chiefs’ draft room?

GM Brett Veach (seventh year) officially has final say over the roster, but Andy Reid’s opinion carries significant weight. The two have worked together since Reid hired Veach as a coaching intern in 2004, and Veach followed Reid to Kansas City in 2013.
