NFL Mock Draft 2.0: NFL Network’s Daniel Jeremiah lists 10 SEC players in first round

Daniel Jeremiah of the NFL Network is out with his latest mock draft, and he has 10 SEC players pegged for the first round.

He has Alabama tackle Evan Neal going No. 1 overall to the Jacksonville Jaguars, as this adds to a popular view that the Jaguars will take a lineman from either side of the ball.

“This offseason is all about supporting Trevor Lawrence. Neal isn’t a flawless prospect, but he’s consistently improved and has a huge upside,” Jeremiah wrote.

Travon Walker, a Georgia pass rusher, is pegged to go No. 5 to the New York Giants, while Kenyon Green, the Texas A&M offensive guard, is listed to be picked at 11 by the Washington Commanders. LSU cornerback Derek Stingley Jr. is next at No. 14 to the Baltimore Ravens.

“The Ravens need to address the offensive line, but they usually stick to a best-player-available philosophy,” Jeremiah wrote. “Stingley is coming off a foot injury, but he’s immensely talented and plays a premier position.”

Devonta Wyatt of Georgia is next pegged at No. 16 to the Philadelphia Eagles.

“Wyatt is going to surprise when he tests at the NFL Scouting Combine. He’s a dynamic athlete and was a force in practice at the Senior Bowl,” Jeremiah wrote.

Here are the rest of the SEC picks:

22. Charles Cross, Mississippi State OT, Las Vegas Raiders
24. Nakobe Dean, Georgia LB, Dallas Cowboys
25. Treylon Burks, Arkansas WR, Buffalo Bills
27. Jameson Williams, Alabama WR, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
32. Jordan Davis, Georgia DT, Detroit Lions
