In addition, Lions Kicker Jason Hanson finished 3rd and Bears tackle Troy Auzenne finished 4th. What a strange year for rookies
My first mock draft of the season - with trades. Two rounds, with blurbs for each pick in the first.
Draft order from Tankathon.
JAX (1.01) - Kayvon Thibodeaux, EDGE, Oregon
The Jags go for the most talented edge in the class, with interest on Hutchinson cooling slightly after being largely shut down in the Orange Bowl against Georgia. Kayvon has an insane ceiling due to his physical tools, and Jacksonville will be salivating at Kayvon and Josh Allen coming off the edges and terrorising quarterbacks for years to come
DET (1.02) - Aiden Hutchinson, EDGE, Michigan
Hutchinson has had an incredibly dominant season in his senior year, and the Lions just go best player available, after deciding to give Jarrod Goff another year as starting quarterback. The senior has dominated most of the defences he's played this year, and will be a asset and cornerstonein the Lions defence.
HOU (1.03) - Evan Neal
Houston decide to give Davis Mills another year starting after showing some promise down the stretch, and shore up protection around him by drafting Neal, and absolute monster who can play anywhere on the line. Neal will be a day 1 starter who will shore up a weak Houston o-line.
NYJ (1.04) - Derek Stingley Jr, CB, LSU
The Jets find themselves in a tough spot. The lack of promising QB's means it's hard to find a suitor to trade down, which would be the ideal option at this spot. The Jets end up picking Stingley a lot earlier than they would have liked. Ikem Okwonu provides an intriguing option, but the Jets opt to continue with the promising George Fant and talented Mekhi Becton at the tackles. Stingley has all the physical tools, but has been inconsistent after a standout freshman year, and will likely improve his stock after a stand-out combine. The Jets hope he can be a worthy investment and become a star outside cornerback.
NYG (1.05) - Ikem Okwonu, OT, NC State
In Andrew Thomas, the Giants have a nice, long term piece in the trenches. That, however, is where the positives end for New York's offensive line. The whole rest of the line has major question marks, and none of them really have deserved their spot. The Giants take the dynamic Okwonu to play opposite Thomas at Tackle, providing a solid pair to protect Jones for likely his last shot at taking the starting job.
CAR (1.06) - Charles Cross, OT, Mississippi State
Carolina also opt to improve their dreadful offensive line, with the strong tackle out of Mississippi State. With one of the

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.
Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.
Do your worst!
I'm surprised it hasn't decade.
For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!
Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂
It really does, I swear!
What is The Weekly Mock Draft?
As some of you may remember, I posted a mock draft each week of the season last year on my old account. Sadly, I wasn’t able to complete the entire series but I plan on doing it this year. Every Wednesday/Thursday of the season (starting today and ending after Week 18), I will post a mock draft. The order is determined by Tankathon (record and SOS) and will be updated weekly as well. This will be used as a tool to determine how the stocks of the top prospects changed throughout the year and for the fans to have something to look forward to once football games are over for the week. The teams will pick players as if they are drafting today. Enjoy!
1. Houston Texans: Spencer Rattler, QB, Oklahoma
A QB has consistently been the #1 pick since 2018 and I expect that trend to continue in 2022. Deshaun Watson is most likely on his way out Houston amid legal issues and his own discontent with the franchise. Tyrod Taylor is by no means a long-term solution and is only serving as a stopgap, and Davis Mills will need to seriously impress the Texans for any hopes of them passing on QB in this draft. Rattler is coming off a disappointing season opener against Tulane, but a player can’t be judged based one on game and the Oklahoma QB possess the necessary skills worthy of the top pick.
2. Detroit Lions: Sam Howell, QB, North Carolina
While I am a firm believer that Jared Goff is not truly a terrible QB, I do expect him to be among the worst starters in the league. His receiving group is very unfavorable and it will come as no surprise if he ends up being the ultimate scapegoat for Detroit’s woes. Like Rattler, Howell started the season on a weak note, and I similarly expect him to come back to form as the season progresses and be a top pick consideration.
3. New York Jets: Derek Stingley Jr., CB, LSU
Stingley Jr. is arguably the best prospect in the upcoming draft and he fits exactly what the Jets need: a talented CB that can start right away. The Jets will be starting Brandin Echols and Bryce Hall, two late-round picks in the past two years. I find it hard to imagine either one of them making a big enough impact to deter the team from selecting a replacement.
4. Jacksonville Jaguars: DeMarvin Leal, DT, Texas A&M
The Jaguars defensive line starters are all under contract until at least 2023, but none of them are particularly as dangerous as Leal. He boasts versatility along the defensive line and comes equi

Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.
This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.
If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.
Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.

Daughter: I'm hungry

Thank you all for listening.
