We’re officially less than a month away from the 2023 NFL Draft. Over the past several weeks, prospects from all over the globe have gone under the microscope of league evaluators as they look to find the next cornerstones of their respective organizations before the first round begins on April 27. 

There is plenty of intrigue at the top of the draft this year. The Carolina Panthers, by way of a trade with the Chicago Bears, have the No. 1 overall selection, and they’re widely expected to take a quarterback. But who will it be? And where will the other top QB prospects end up? Then there’s the Lamar Jackson situation, which could completely change the complexion of the three-day event.

Below you’ll find everything you need to know about this looming draft, from prospect rankings to picks — and, of course, mock drafts.
