Season Statistics:
- Completion Percentage: 65.9%
- Passing Yards: 4,218
- Passing Touchdowns: 33
Ideal Draft Position
This is another instance of an accomplished top-tier QB in a crowded QB class, but Penix will fit excellently in Minnesota under Kirk Cousins for a year. The Vikes are at 22, or the Steelers at 23; after that, he becomes a second-round steal with Bo Nix.

Mitchell is the second-best wide receiver for Texas but the best pro prospect. He has a knack for finding the end zone, twice as much as his counterpart, Xavier Worthy. His speed, route-running ability, and Size make him a lethal offensive weapon.

Season Statistics:
- Total Receptions: 51
- Receiving Yards: 813
- Receiving Touchdowns: 10
Ideal Draft Position
Mitchell will go before Worthy, and The Chiefs are undoubtedly drafting a WR at 25. All our mock drafts point to it being Mitchell, almost a bankable pick. During the College Playoffs, he can secure his destiny with ten receptions/200 yards/two TD line in the Sugar Bowl and National Championship games.
