Hey guys this is Ryan Oliver, National Scouting Director and Football Editor at Youth1, and it's one of the best days of the year: Day 1 of the NFL Draft.
Just like last year the 2022 NFL draft is an exciting weekend for Youth1, because we get a chance to see our alumni that we promoted and identified in seventh or eighth grade and throughout their careers, finally reach their goal of playing in the NFL.
This weekend‘s draft class has a handful of Youth1 alumni with a handful projected to go in the first round. We wouldn’t be surprised based on some current mock drafts and Vegas odds if we saw Georgia's Travon Walker go #1 overall with Oregon's Kayvon Thibodeaux, Texas A&M's Kenyon Green, and Penn State's Jahan Dotson all going in round one. Sam Howell from UNC and Matt Corrall from Ole Miss could end up in the first round too if there are multiple teams looking for this class's top QBs this year.
And for anyone out there who needs help reaching their athletic goals go to Youth1.com/membership to find a plan that works for your family or sign up to speak to a youth one recruiting counselor at Youth1.com.
Enjoy the draft!
