ESPN’s Todd McShay released his 2018 Mock Draft 3.0 after the NFL Combine concluded Monday.

McShay projects two quarterbacks and two SEC players  going in the top 10 of the 2018 NFL Draft.

McShay projects the Falcons drafting Justin Reid, a safety out of Stanford, with the 26th overall pick.

“Guard is a definite need for Atlanta, but a position I believe the Falcons will address in free agency,” McShay writes. “This might be a bit of a reach, but I really like Reid’s tape and he backed it up with a great combine workout (4.40 40 at 6-1, 204, along with 10-foot 8-inch broad jump and 36.5 inch vertical jump).”
