With the NFL quarterback carousel finally starting to slow down, the teams in the mix to select a first-round signal-caller are quite clear.
The Panthers are still set to start 2022 with the erratic Sam Darnold; the Falcons signed Raiders backup Marcus Mariota after trading away Matt Ryan; and the Seahawks received Broncos enigma Drew Lock in the blockbuster deal for Russell Wilson.

Seattle currently has the lowest pick of the three, but in this mock draft, head coach Pete Carroll and general manager John Schneider take matters into their own hands, leapfrogging the Panthers and Falcons to snag the first passer off the board. Elsewhere, the Chargers give up more draft capital for offensive line help, while both Ohio State wide receivers go in the top 10. Now let's get started!
