2022 NFL Draft: Las Vegas Raiders picking late in full first round mock

Picks No. 19 through 22

When it comes to the Minnesota Vikings, the biggest topic of conversation is always Kirk Cousins, and whether he is good enough to bring them to a Super Bowl. If the organization decides it is time for a new face under center, Carson Strong would be a nice get here at No. 19, as he has the size and arm talent to succeed at the next level.

The Cleveland Browns have some big decisions to make when it comes to the wide receiver group this offseason and adding Garrett Wilson at pick No. 20 could make some of their decisions easier. Wilson is going to be a playmaker at the next level, and if Baker Mayfield is the long-term answer at quarterback, this is a guy he will love throwing to.

The Buffalo Bills have one of the easier three-game stretches in football on the horizon, including games against Miami, the New York Jets, and Jacksonville. Couple that with their 4-2 start, and 7-2 is a real possibility, so when all is said and done, they could be picking a lot later in round one. However, if they are here, Drake Jackson would be an outstanding get for their tough defensive line.

The Los Angeles Chargers have one of the best young quarterbacks in football in Justin Herbert, and they go out and get him a local weapon here. Drake London is having a breakout season for USC and would be a solid addition to a wide receiver group that already is loaded with playmakers.
