NFL 2023 Mock Draft: Bears stay at No. 1 and go defense; Raiders find Derek Carr's replacement
CBSN
QBs fly off the board in the top 10, while edge rushers and cornerbacks are two of the top drafted positions
While the Chicago Bears have likely fielded a number of calls for the top overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, the likelihood that they find a deal they warrant fair enough to surrender the top spot is low. The No. 1 overall pick has not be traded since the Rams moved up from No. 15 overall in 2016 to select quarterback Jared Goff. Since this is a pre-combine mock draft, there will not be any trades below. Edge rusher 5 Cornerback 5 Quarterback 4 Defensive lineman 4 Wide receiver 4 Tight end 3 Offensive tackle 3 Safety 1 Running back 1 Interior offensive lineman 1
No one position truly separates itself in this draft with five edge rushers and five cornerbacks atop the positional leaderboard across the first round. However, the quarterback position, the most important position in sports, dominated the top 10 with four passers being selected in the first nine picks.
