The Notre Dame football team could see multiple players taken in the 2022 NFL Draft, and here is our latest All-Irish Mock Draft.

With the 2022 NFL Combine in the rearview mirror, Notre Dame football turns its attention to spring practices at the college level, and the 2022 NFL Draft at the pro level. The Irish may not have a deep collection of talent heading to the NFL this offseason, but there are at least five who could be drafted, and many more who could end up being UDFAs.

Here, we look at an All-Irish 2022 NFL Mock Draft across the three-day event.

Round 1, Pick No. 3: Kyle Hamilton, Houston Texans

No big surprise here, as even though Kyle Hamilton did not blow people away at the NFL Combine, he did enough to stay a top-5 pick. The star safety will be an impact player at the next level thanks to his speed, size, and athleticism, as well as his ability to be a ball hawk in any secondary.

At pick No. 3, the Houston Texans are going to be looking for a legitimate superstar-caliber player, and Hamilton may be the best player in this draft class. If they trade away Deshaun Watson, Houston should have multiple first-round picks in 2022, but their first one should be spent on Hamilton.
