Live results for every pick of the 2024 NFL Draft.
The 2024 NFL Draft will be defined by an early run on quarterbacks. There’s so much talent available after that once Caleb Williams, Drake Maye, and Jayden Daniels all come off the board.
The Chicago Bears hold the No. 1 pick in the draft thanks to their prescient trade with the Carolina Panthers ahead of last year’s NFL Draft. The Bears are expected to select Williams after trading Justin Fields to the Pittsburgh Steelers earlier this offseason. Chicago has perhaps the most tortured QB history in the NFL, but Williams will be stepping into a great situation with D.J. Moore, Keenan Allen, and Cole Kmet already in place as pass catchers.
While the QBs always draw the headlines, don’t sleep on the talent at wide receiver and offensive line. Our final mock draft had 11 offensive linemen going in the first 33 picks. It also had seven wide receivers projected to go in the first round. Ohio State receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. is ranked as our No. 1 overall prospect in this class by analyst J.P. Acosta in his final top-100 big board for the 2024 NFL Draft class.
The best value in this draft class might be on the defensive line and in the secondary. There’s expected to be a big run on offense to start the draft, but don’t sleep on the pass rushers. Florida State’s Jared Verse, UCLA’s Laiatu Latu, and Alabama’s Dallas Turner could all come off the board in the first 15 picks. Alabama cornerback Ga’Quincy ‘Kool-Aid’ McKinstry might be the first DB taken, and has an awesome story behind his famous nickname.
