9. Philadelphia Eagles (via MIA): Brandon Joseph, S, Northwestern

The Eagles are back up in the 2022 NFL Mock Draft, and the secondary would likely be the logical next place to address. This may be a reach, but Brandon Joseph has the skill set to play on the back end. His smarts, instincts, and range would help out a secondary that gives up big plays after the catch.

10. Cincinnati Bengals: Kenyon Green, OL, Texas A&M

The Bengals may need to admit their faults from the 2021 draft, and shift the focus to bolster the line in the 2022 NFL Draft. Kenyon Green moved from guard to right tackle this season for the Aggies, and is playing very well so far. His versatility could be huge for the Bengals to fill in wherever they need.

11. Houston Texans: Sam Howell, QB, UNC

The Texans have surprised thus far, routing the Jaguars and staying tight with the Browns. It’s still a team in a full reset, so quarterback makes the most sense. After a tough start against the Hokies, Sam Howell has responded well, showing off the deep accuracy and mobility. He can develop into a quality starter in the NFL.

12. New York Giants (via CHI): Tyler Linderbaum, C, Iowa

The Giants have struggled mightily to protect Daniel Jones, and now need to protect Rattler, who was already selected in this 2022 NFL Mock Draft. Looking towards the interior makes a ton of sense. Tyler Linderbaum has the athleticism, explosion, and football IQ to be a dominant center in the league.
