The Most Accurate Mock Draft in Town, Daniel Jeremiah’s Final Mock, Has the Falcons Taking Dallas Turner at 8. DJ Makes His Mocks Based on What He’s Hearing in League Circles. He’s a Former Scout for Several NFL Teams, so He’s Well Connected.

He’s also predicted our last 4 first round picks correctly if that means anything.
43 Total Words.
8 Not capitalized.
Not even the best edge at 8 with an elite Receiver still available
But I want Odunze
I would be shocked if JJ falls to 11
I’m just going to copy/paste what I said on the draft sub. I have a lot of respect for DJ and i know he is a guy who is very much in the loop…but I really think he, and everyone else, are in the dark on Atlanta’s thought process here:
It the Falcons end up actually taking Turner at 8, then not only am I all for it, but I give enormous props to all these mock drafters for being prescient enough to see this coming from months away.
THAT SAID…I am so entirely convinced that 99% of these guys are sticking with that pick because it’s been the consensus for so long, and because Atlanta is legitimately not leaking shit.
Draftsmas eve, as a Falcons fans who also happens to be a draft nerd, if I had to put money on it, I’m going Byron Murphy at 8.
Look, I know we’re supposed to talk about the Falcons, but real quick, am I the only one who has not seen JC Latham going top ten in a single mock until now?
Last year DJ got the first three picks right – including predicting the Texans trading back up for Will Anderson – but after that he only got four picks correct.
And getting 7/31 was considered very good!
Trades in particular can quickly derail any mock draft. DJ is good, but I have a feeling he’s finally going to miss predicting the Falcons’ selection this time around.
I thought Schreger was the MOST accurate
Has Latu really fallen to 27th? Jesus. I know his injury affects his position but he should be higher imo
Passing on Odunze would be a tough pill to swallow
Latham over Alt at 5 seems nuts
Chop Robinson is the 2nd highest rated EDGE in this draft which despite not having impressive sack stats still makes sense as he’s raking in the highest QB pressures. He’s the highest ranked pass rusher. I assume Latu has fallen late due to inside buzz on medical concerns.
We still have to think if we can trade back it could be worth it for numerous reasons. LV will have interest in beating everybody to grab JJ and have a 2nd round pick to offer. Vikings and Broncos are also interested in fighting for JJ but have less to give up, but a 3rd round from this year and a high pick next year could be worth a swap. We’d still have choice of any of those later edge defenders.
Byron Murphy>Dallas Turner
FWIW – 2023 Daniel Jeremiah Mock Draft 4.0
1. Carolina Panthers: Alabama QB Bryce Young
2. Houston Texans: Ohio State QB C.J. Stroud
3. Houston Texans (after projected trade with Arizona Cardinals): Alabama EDGE Will Anderson Jr.
4. Indianapolis Colts: Kentucky QB Will Levis
5. Seattle Seahawks: Georgia DT Jalen Carter
6. Detroit Lions: Illinois CB Devon Witherspoon
7. Las Vegas Raiders: Oregon CB Christian Gonzalez
8. Atlanta Falcons: Texas RB Bijan Robinson
9. Chicago Bears: Texas Tech EDGE Tyree Wilson
10. Philadelphia Eagles: Georgia EDGE Nolan Smith
11. Tennessee Titans: Boston College WR Zay Flowers
12. Arizona Cardinals (after projected trade with Houston Texans): Ohio State OT Paris Johnson Jr.
13. Green Bay Packers: Utah TE Dalton Kincaid
14. New England Patriots: Iowa EDGE Lukas Van Ness
15. New York Jets: Northwestern OL Peter Skoronski
16. Washington Commanders: Mississippi State CB Emmanuel Forbes
17. Pittsburgh Steelers: Georgia OT Broderick Joness
18. Detroit Lions: Pitt DT Calijah Kancey
19. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Ohio State WR Jaxon Smith-Njigba
20. Seattle Seahawks: Florida QB Anthony Richardson
21. Los Angeles Chargers: Notre Dame TE Michael Mayer
22. Baltimore Ravens: Maryland CB Deonte Banks
23. Minnesota Vikings: USC WR Jordan Addison
24. Jacksonville Jaguars: Penn State CB Joey Porter Jr.
31. Kansas City Chiefs: Tennessee OT Darnell Wright
I think the pats are trading back and taking JJ McCarthy. Up here in NE all sports radio talks about is how everyone at patriots place lives JJ and how indecisive they are on drake. It may be a red herring but I can see that happening easily.
