Pro Football Focus released their first NFL Mock draft for 2018. Tabbed as the No. 8 pick to the Bucs, here’s what Steve Palazzolo wrote about Michigan’s Mo Hurst:
The nation’s top-graded defensive player at 95.5 overall, Hurst is disruptive against the run and as a pass-rusher. He’s built in the mold of current Bucs defensive tackle Gerald McCoy, but it can’t hurt to have two disruptors up front, especially in the age of multiple defensive fronts and high subpackage usage. Hurst has been dominant in his 1,233 career snaps and an interior havoc-creator is coveted in today’s NFL.
The Mock Draft has Baker Mayfield going No. 1 to the Cleveland Browns and three other QBs (Darnold – Giants, Jackson – Jets, Rosen – Cardinals) going in the top six.
