NFL mock drafts 2023: Compare latest from Mel Kiper, Daniel Jeremiah, Todd McShay, other experts

No need to shut your windows. There is a draft in here. 

With the 2023 NFL Combine in the rearview mirror, draft season is full steam ahead, and the experts are cranking out their mocks.

This year's combine didn't really result in any major movers at or near the top, but it did reinforce what we already knew. The Bryce Young size debate will rage on until April, C.J. Stroud looks ready for the big stage, and Will Levis will make a team very happy come April — or very disappointed come the end of the 2023 NFL season.

With this year's draft first round something of a crapshoot with several unknowns baked into the top 10, some of the mock draft experts are seeing things differently. 

Here's how some of the heavy-hitter mock drafters see the first round playing out:

Vinnie Iyer's mock draft (The Sporting News)

Iyer's latest mock draft was released on March 6. 

Noteworthy:

— Will Levis doesn't last very long, heading to the Raiders at No. 7. Given that Las Vegas doesn't have a lot of options in free agency that would make sense long-term, Levis makes sense here.

— The Jets opt for a wideout here to pair with Garrett Wilson and Elijah Moore. They could also go offensive line, but the best options are off the board by the time they pick.

— With the last pick in the first round, the Chiefs bolster the offensive line with Anton Harrison. 

Mel Kiper's mock draft (ESPN)

Kiper's latest mock draft was released on Feb. 28. His full analysis can be found here. 

Noteworthy:

— The Texans jump up one slot to secure their passer of the future, Alabama's Bryce Young.

— The Ravens take a swing at fixing their wide receiver issues, landing wideout Zay Flowers with the No. 22 pick.

— Will Levis, top-five pick? The Panthers trade up to take Levis, one of the draft's more polarizing prospects.

Daniel Jeremiah's mock draft (NFL Network)

Jeremiah's latest mock draft was released on Feb. 21.

Noteworthy:

— Nolan Smith is considered by some to be a top-half pick, but in this mock the Georgia pass rusher falls all the way down to the Chiefs at No. 31.

— Christian Gonzalez is considered by some to be a lock for the top 10, maybe even the top five. In Jeremiah's mock, he falls to the Patriots at No. 14.

— Anthony Richardson's combine solidified him as a first-round pick, and in this case, he heads to the Lions at No. 18 overall. 

Todd McShay's mock draft (ESPN)

McShay's latest mock draft was released on March 7. For full detailed analysis, visit his mock here.

Noteworthy:

— The Eagles make a luxury pick at No. 10, selecting Texas running back Bijan Robinson. Seems a bit high for a back.

— The Ravens may finally solve their WR issues by going with Ohio State's Jaxon Smith-Njigba at No. 22. 

— The Bears trade down not once, but twice, and pick up some much-needed offensive line help in Northwestern's Peter Skoronski.

Dane Brugler's mock draft (The Athletic)

Brugler's latest mock draft was revealed on March 7. For full details and analysis, visit Brugler's mock draft here.

Noteworthy:

— The Colts trade up for a quarterback, but it's not Bryce Young. Instead, Indy goes up to get Ohio State's C.J. Stroud.

— The Patriots trade up for offensive line help, getting one of the best OL prospects in the draft at No. 10, Peter Skoronski.

— Like father, like son: The Steelers nab son of franchise great Joey Porter, Joey Porter Jr., with the No. 17 pick, bolstering their DB room.
