2022 NFL Mock Draft 2.5 - Post-trades

The NFL off-season has been one of the wildest, if not the wildest, off-seasons in league history.

There have been several groundbreaking trades this off-season, particularly those involving quarterbacks Deshaun Watson and Russell Wilson, which have been record-setting in terms of the trade packages sent and the new contracts that have been created.

The Las Vegas Raiders also made a huge trade for Green Bay Packers star wide receiver Devante Adams.

On Wednesday, the Kansas City Chiefs traded their star wide receiver to the Miami Dolphins for five picks, including in the first round of the 2022 Draft.

All of these trades have drastically impacted the upcoming 2022 NFL Draft, set for Thursday, April 28.

NFL Mock Drafts are being updated constantly thanks to picks being traded off for players.

The Camden News's 2022 NFL Mock Draft 2.0 was outdated quickly with the constant trades being worked in. It only makes sense that a 2022 NFL Mock Draft 2.5 shows the changes made in the league and which collegiate stars are now projected to go in the first round of the 2022 NFL Draft.
