Three-round NFL mock draft 2022: Mel Kiper, Todd McShay predict the top 105 picks, alternating for all 32 teams
Let's continue the Falcons' perfect class, since I've done four of their five picks here. Butler is underrated; watch his tape against Alabama and you'd think he was a first-round lock. He was inconsistent at times, but he has rare endurance for a 300-pounder. He could play end in Atlanta's 3-4 scheme.
Tennessee doesn't have its second-round pick because of last year's Julio Jones trade, so it could use this pick to add a playmaker for Ryan Tannehill. Jones, who will be 25 years old when the 2022 season begins, is lightning quick (4.31 40 at the combine) and will help in the return game.
