13. Cleveland Browns: George Karlaftis, EDGE, Purdue

The Cleveland Browns will have plenty to figure out in terms of the direction they go at quarterback for 2022 and will likely explore options all offseason. It seems unlikely that they’ll approach the 2022 NFL Draft with the aggressiveness to draft one. The defensive line could use some help, and with Jadeveon Clowney potentially leaving via free agency, George Karlaftis would be an excellent pick to form a lethal pass rushing duo with Myles Garrett.

14. Baltimore Ravens: Ahmad Gardner, CB, Cincinnati

The Baltimore Ravens maybe look more full at corner going forward than say, the defensive line, but some guys are getting up there in age. In this 2022 NFL Mock Draft, the second corner comes off the board. Ahmad Gardner might need some ironing out in terms of grabbing late, but he’s physical, feisty at the catch point, and is great in run support.

15. Philadelphia Eagles (via MIA): Tyler Linderbaum, C, Iowa

The Philadelphia Eagles have three picks, and it’s likely building around Jalen Hurts. It starts at center and getting a very good replacement for Jason Kelce should he retire. Tyler Linderbaum has the similar quicks, athleticism, and space blocking skills. His awareness in space is special, and he could come right in with a near-seamless transition.

16. Philadelphia Eagles (via IND): DeMarvin Leal, DL, Texas A&M

It’s going to be an interesting offseason regarding the Eagles’ defensive line. Should Derek Barnett return? Will Fletcher Cox be let go? Is Ryan Kerrigan back? With all those questions, defensive line makes sense here in this 2022 NFL Mock Draft. DeMarvin Leal would be a nice fit moving around in Philly’s front to defend the run and rush with his power, quickness, and pop in his hands.
