In today’s Fact or Fiction — NFL Draft edition — I look at three big recent topics around the NFL Draft and decide whether the statement is indeed FACT or if it’s FICTION.
I’ve seen some mock drafts show Jim Harbaugh and company moving back and going OT, mainly at No. 12 with a trade with the Vikings. But I think someone trades up to No. 4 with the Cardinals, and the first four picks go QB, which leaves the Chargers with their choice of Marvin Harrison Jr. and Malik Nabers, and that choice is too good to pass up.
The Jets at No. 10 are possible, but I’ve heard some rumors that Bowers could slide because he didn’t work out for teams, and some are questioning (incorrectly) his speed and how his athleticism translates as a potential top 10-13 pick. But he won’t get past the Colts at No. 15 if he does slide and you can get Indy is hoping he will.
With Jarrett Stidham as their potential starter, you’d think they’d be desperate for a QB, and they are, but I hear they are going to trade back into the last part of round one and take either Bo Nix or Michael Penix Jr. there. If they can’t trade back they will likely go defense and perhaps try to land someone in round three (Spencer Rattler) or trade into round two to grab a QB.
