A reason is rarely needed for a new mock draft. Whether needed or not, this week’s trade of receiver Stefon Diggs from the Buffalo Bills to the Houston Texans is a reason for a new mock draft. The addition of the squirrelly receiver does nothing to the first round plans of the Texans. They have no first round pick. The Minnesota Vikings have it. The trade does impact the first round plans of the Bills. That’s the reason for this unnecessary mock draft.
The Vikings trade #11, #23, and a 2025 first to the Patriots for #3. In reality, there are probably some later picks involved to balance things. For this fake trade, only the first round picks are significant.
