The first mock draft from NFL.com’s Daniel Jeremiah has four quarterbacks going in his top eight picks, and he has the Chicago Bears going with offensive lineman Jalen Mayfield from Michigan. Here’s what he had to say about the redshirt sophomore.
“The Bears could use Mayfield at tackle or slide him inside to guard. I love the way he finishes in the run game.”
Mayfield is his fifth offensive lineman off his mock draft board in what many pundits have called a deep class for offensive tackles.
Jacob Infante, our lead draft analyst, has Mayfield rated as his 74th overall prospect and his 10th overall offensive tackle in his latest top 100 Player Big Board.
