No need for a full mock. I seriously doubt the Giant first pick in round 1 drops below 6, so I'll end there. You're allowed to show a trade.
Scenario 1 :
Cleveland - Darnold
NY Giants - Barkley
NY Jets - Rosen
Cleveland - Chubb
Denver - Allen
Indy - Nelson
Scenario 2 :
Cleveland - Barkley
NY Giants - Darnold
NY Jets - Rosen
Cleveland - Allen
Denver - Chubb
Indy - Nelson
Scenario 3 :
Cleveland - Barkley
Denver (Trade w/Giants) - Darnold
NY Jets - Rosen
Cleveland - Allen
NY Giants (Trade w/Denver) - Nelson
Indy - Chubb
I think Cleveland is only picking Darnold or Barkley at 1st overall. Outside chance Cleveland takes another QB at 1st overall. I think the Giants wait and see what Cleveland does. If Barkley is gone when the Giants pick, they'll go QB IF the believe one is the BPA and future franchise QB, else they agree to a trade down. It might involve a 3 way trade, but I don't see the Giants dropping down past 6th overall (likely the Bills are involved in that case). The Giants will end up with one of Barkley, Nelson, Chubb, Darnold, Allen or Rosen IMHO.
Fire away!

Or if they prefer Chubb to Barkley:
1. Browns: Darnold
2. Giants: Rosen
3. Jets: Mayfield

With a trade from the Bills for 4 QBs in a row:
1. Browns: Darnold
2. Giants: Rosen
3. Jets: Mayfield
4. Bills: Allen
5. Broncos: Chubb
6. Colts: Barkley
And one bonus scenario where the Giants decide they must have Barkley:
1. Browns: Darnold
2. Giants: Barkley
3. Jets: Rosen
4. Browns: Chubb
5. Broncos: Allen
6. Colts: Nelson
Giants- Barkley
Jets - Rosen
Buffalo- Allen
Denver- Nelson
Indy- Chubb
Mayfield drops to Arizona.
Seems to me that you only need to cover Cleveland taking Darnold or Allen at #1 and then go from there on what the Giants may do.
1. Browns: Darnold
2. Giants: Rosen
3. Jets: Mayfield
4. Browns: Barkley
5. Broncos: Allen
6. Colts: Chubb
Or if they prefer Chubb to Barkley:
1. Browns: Darnold
2. Giants: Rosen

Absolutely the Browns WILL pick a QB at 1, if you want a QB and you have two picks like they do, why on earth would you wait till 4? Take the QB you want, worry about Barkley later, he might even be there at 4.
Yeah "smokescreen" is the most overused word during the draft. Not everything is a smokescreen especially in the Browns case cuz they are not considering Rosen. BTW that should tell you something right there.
Browns would be playing too cute at QB to go Allen. I'm positive they are taking Darnold and the Giants are either going Barkley or trading down.
2. Giants: Rosen
3. Jets: Mayfield
4. Browns: Barkley
5. Broncos: Allen
6. Colts: Chubb
Which I think makes sense. I also think the Giants and Broncos could switch Rosen and Allen...
1. Browns: Darnold
2. Giants: Allen
3. Jets: Mayfield
4. Browns: Barkley
5. Broncos: Rosen
6. Colts: Chubb
I am not sure where the Bills come into this, but I think the most likely QB to drop to them is Mayfield. I know a lot of people love the guy but I am not sure I even like that player in the first round.
2. Giants: Rosen
3. Jets: Mayfield
4. Browns: Barkley
5. Broncos: Allen
6. Colts: Chubb
this is the one...
2. Rosen
3. Mayfield
4. Barkley
5. Allen
6. Chubb
It is boring but realistic. I think it is gonna be kinda wild though. I expect maybe 2 trades in the top 5. I think there are legs to the Browns, Giants, Bills trade rumors. Buffalo really wants to get to pick #2. NYG to #4 and get #22 and a 3rd ( #65 ), Cleveland would get #12, a 2nd rounder and 2019 1st round pick.
1. Cleveland Darold
2. Buffalo Rosen
3. Jets Mayfield
4. Giants Barkley
5. Denver Allen
6. Indy Chubb
2. Giants - Chubb

Who cares who is selected next?
2.) Giants - Barkley
3.) Jets - Rosen
4.) Browns - Chubb
5.) Broncos - Allen
6.) Colts - Nelson
Giants
1. Saquon Barkley - RB
2. Braden Smith - G
3. Kevin Toliver II - CB
3. Kemoko Turay - OLB/Edge Rusher
4. DeShaun Hamilton - WR
5. Bo Scarborough - RB (Short Yardage Specialist)
In the alternative, that Minkah kid would be too high?
The Giants after multiple, failed trade attempts with the Bills and Broncos will take a player that no one had in the top 25, of any list. The networks will be sifting through obscure YouTube videos to get footage of any play this kid made. Meanwhile DG proclaims his superior intellect has duped the entire league. Inevitably, the pressures of live TV will force them to rebroadcast some sketchy streaming media shot by his transgendered "lover" as said player proclaims being the first NFL player to be openly non-binary. The never ending circus will lead to a protracted hold out because “he” doesn't feel he's being properly compensated with “pioneering money” and ends up co-hosting a short lived, day time talk show with Kate Mara on Oprah TV. The whole fiasco forces Eli to retire and the Giants are left with Webb and a newly signed Colin Kaepernick.
The Jets snag Darnold who with Eli as his QB coach will lead them to 11 Superbowl wins leaving TFB and Kraft once again bested by a NY team.
The Browns second pick is Barkley, who only furthers their draft victory, yet despite remaining quite healthy, struggles to be as good as Ki-Jana Carter was.
Denver grabs Nelson who goes on to be the best lineman drafted since Anthony Munoz.
The Colts pill ladened owner, not to be upstaged by the Giants shenanigans takes the mic from the commissioner and announces Rosen as the new starting quarterback of the Colts.
That’s how I see it folks; oracles only exist in fiction.
1 - Browns - Josh Rosen
