Mel Kiper Jr. projects Georgia football back-to-back with No. 1 overall NFL draft picks

Georgia football might not be done going back-to-back if Mel Kiper Jr. got it right with his first 2023 NFL mock draft on the ESPN pay site.

UGA All-American Jalen Carter, one of the Bulldogs’ future best bets for the College Football Hall of Fame, is projected to be the No. 1 overall pick for the Chicago Bears, per Kiper.

“He’s the best player in this draft, a Day 1 starter in the middle of this defense.”

Kiper Jr. has Ohio State QB C.J. Stroud as the top QB in the draft and the No. 2 overall pick, followed by Alabama’s Will Anderson at No. 3 and Bryce Young at No. 4.
