We have concluded Week 11 of the college football season, so it is time to take a look at the latest 2018 NFL Mock Draft.

We have just a handful of weeks remaining until the conference championship games followed by almost a month of bowl battles, but as far as NFL scouts are concerned, these games are of much more interest.

Teams are still battling for a shot at the College Football Playoff and other big-time bowls, meaning players are giving it their all. Where will the top players in college football be playing on Sundays next year?

Here’s at look at our latest 2018 NFL Mock Draft following Week 11 of the college football season. The draft order used was from the latest Las Vegas Super Bowl odds.

It has been a tough few drafts for Cleveland, as they have watched as Philadelphia and Houston have landed franchise quarterbacks in Carson Wentz and Deshaun Watson.

Instead, the Browns went with DeShone Kizer last year, and that appears to be a bust.

If Cleveland secures the No. 1 pick this year, a handful of worthy quarterbacks will be available. But without a lot of great talent on offense, the Browns need a playmaker.

Lamar Jackson is the best playmaker of the group. The reigning Heisman winner has rushed for at least 960 yards each of the past three seasons to go along with over 8,000 passing yards, showing he knows what being a one-man offense takes.

He’s also improved his ability to read defenses, pushing his completion percentage up to 60 from 56 this year.

Jackson has thrown for 3,003 yards with 21 touchdowns and just six interception, completing 212 of 352. He also has 1,175 yards rushing and 15 more touchdowns.
