Both of the last two years, Georgia has broken records in the NFL Draft, and they may do so again this year. With twelve Bulldogs players currently registered for the NFL Draft, let’s examine some possible destinations for these players.
BROCK BOWERS: THE FIFTH-RANKED PLAYER FOR THE LOS ANGELES CHARGERS
First, Brock Bowers will be drafted by a team, and he will make an immediate impression, landing somewhere in the first round.
However, picture him playing for the Los Angeles Chargers. The Chargers can win the Super Bowl right away if they sign Justin Herbert, Austin Ekeler, Keenan Allen, Mike Williams, and Brock Bowers. Their defence is the best paid in the NFL and has studs all over it. The Bears, Raiders, Broncos, Packers, or Bengals could be involved, if not the Chargers.
KAMARI LASSITER: MEMBER OF THE BUFFALO BILLS
Kamari Lassiter emerges as one of the premier cornerback prospects in this year’s draft. Numerous teams, including the Buffalo Bills, are in the market for a cornerback.
Despite having Tre’Davious White, a reliable player, the Bills face concerns about his recent injury proneness. Securing a counterpart or future replacement for White is imperative, making Lassiter a compelling choice. Beyond the Bills, the Lions, Colts, and Raiders also present viable options for Lassiter’s potential fit.
AMARIUS MIMS: GREEN BAY PACKERS
SEDRICK VAN PRAN: PIITSBURGH STEELERS
LADD MCCONKEY: NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS / HOUSTON TEXANS
JAVON BULLARD: GREEN BAY PACKERS
MARCUS ROSEMAY-JACKSAINT: ATLANTA FALCONS
The probability of the Atlanta Falcons selecting a Georgia Bulldog with a mid-round pick seems improbable based on past trends. However, acquiring Marcus Rosemay-Jacksaint could offer a genuine WR2 option for the new head coach and potentially a new quarterback. The emergence of Drake London as a formidable WR1 threat highlights the team’s need for additional receiving options. To enhance Kyle Pitts’s impact, bringing in another significant receiving threat is crucial. In the previous season, Mack Hollins, the Falcons’ WR2, ranked fifth among team receivers with only 251 yards for the entire season. There’s a possibility of Marcus Rosemay-Jacksaint being available in the mid-to-late rounds of the draft, making him a potential target for the Falcons. If not Atlanta, teams like Cleveland, Kansas City, and the Jets could also benefit from his skills.
