What kind of draft analyst would I be if I didn't do a full seven-round mock draft, predicting all 257 picks in the 2024 NFL Draft? Lackluster.
Therefore, in an attempt to not be a lackluster draft analyst, I have mocked `the entire 2024 draft. Every single pick. No need to even watch the draft anymore -- I've been handed the script. This is how it will all play out from April 25-27.
For more draft coverage, you can hear in-depth analysis twice a week on "With the First Pick" -- our year-round NFL Draft podcast with NFL Draft analyst Ryan Wilson and former Vikings general manager Rick Spielman. You can find "With the First Pick" wherever you get your podcasts: Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, etc. Listen below!
From
Carolina Panthers
Round 1 - Pick 1
This is essentially a no-brainer for Chicago. Caleb Williams has franchise-altering ability.
| |||||||
Round 1 - Pick 2
This feels lay-up-ish, doesn't it? Jayden Daniels can be an explosive playmaker orchestrating Kliff Kingsbury's spread offense.
| |||||||
Round 1 - Pick 3
At this point we shouldn't be shocked if J.J. McCarthy goes ahead of Drake Maye. The Michigan quarterback needs time to develop, and so does the Patriots team as a whole.
| |||||||
Round 1 - Pick 4
The Cardinals don't mess around with any trades, instead picking Marvin Harrison Jr. to be their WR1 instantly.
| |||||||
Mock Trade from
Los Angeles Chargers
Round 1 - Pick 5
Rejoice in Viking land, as Minnesota lands an athletic, big-arm passer who exudes aggressiveness.
| |||||||
Round 1 - Pick 6
The Giants don't get a quarterback, but instead land an electric WR to aid their in-house quarterback, Daniel Jones. Malik Nabers is a special talent.
| |||||||
Round 1 - Pick 8
Dallas Turner may not be a double-digit sack rusher in Year 1, but with his length and insane explosiveness, he could be that type for a long time in the NFL after he gets a bit stronger.
| |||||||
Round 1 - Pick 9
The Bears are doing everything possible to make the landing spot cushy for Caleb Williams. Rome Odunze at No. 9 will signal that even more than the Keenan Allen trade a few weeks ago.
| |||||||
Round 1 - Pick 10
This is an Aaron Rodgers pick, as he finally gets his first-round receiver. With this selection, his wideout trio is Garrett Wilson, Mike Williams and Thomas. Damn good.
| |||||||
Mock Trade from
Minnesota Vikings
Round 1 - Pick 11
This is my favorite trade pairing in Round 1 because it works wonderfully for both teams. Taliese Fuaga has a high floor because of his size and strength but also possesses serious potential because of how impeccable of a mover he is.
| |||||||
Round 1 - Pick 12
Sean Payton has his eyes on another quarterback later in the draft and instead looks to tighten up the blocking unit with the selection of Troy Fautanu.
| |||||||
Round 1 - Pick 13
The Raiders are closer to being in win-now mode than we probably expect, and Michael Penix Jr. can help elevate their offense to new heights.
| |||||||
Round 1 - Pick 14
The Saints have a desperate need at offensive tackle. Amarius Mims is a plug-and-play starter with freaky size, power and balance.
| |||||||
Mock Trade from
Indianapolis Colts
Round 1 - Pick 15
The Dolphins see Olu Fashanu falling and make an aggressive ascension to land a young offensive tackle with All-Pro upside. In this deal, they send No. 22 and No. 55 to the Colts for this selection and a fourth-round pick in return (No. 117).
| |||||||
Round 1 - Pick 16
Brock Bowers to the Seahawks would be a lot of fun, giving Geno Smith more early-round weapons.
| |||||||
Round 1 - Pick 17
Quinyon Mitchell has 4.33 speed, legitimate NFL boundary cornerback size, and defended 45 passes the past three seasons. What's not to like?
| |||||||
Round 1 - Pick 18
The Bengals have to get reinforcements at defensive tackle, and Johnny Newton is strong, polished, and explosive.
| |||||||
Round 1 - Pick 19
Jared Verse is a high-floor, ready-to-go rusher who'll formulate a fun outside pass-rushing duo with Byron Young in Los Angeles.
| |||||||
Round 1 - Pick 20
Terrion Arnold to the Steelers would be tremendous. He feels like a Steelers defender: he does everything well and plays with authority as a tackler.
| |||||||
Mock Trade from
Miami Dolphins
Round 1 - Pick 21
The Colts are enamored with plus athletes, and DeJean is one of the most sudden athletes at the position in this class.
| |||||||
Round 1 - Pick 22
Howie Roseman can't resist picking defensive linemen early in the draft, and Chop Robinson could very well give him some serious Haason Reddick vibes.
| |||||||
Mock Trade from
Minnesota Vikings
Round 1 - Pick 23
So it's offensive tackle and receiver for the Chargers after their trade-back. Perfection. Adonai Mitchell has sky-high upside given his frame and fluidity on the field.
| |||||||
Round 1 - Pick 24
The Cowboys go best player available, and JPJ will move people in the run game and anchor in pass pro with the best of them.
| |||||||
Round 1 - Pick 25
The Packers have done a great job sustaining the offensive line over the years with mid-to-late round picks who have developed. This selection would be more of a statement after moving on from David Bakhtiari.
| |||||||
Round 1 - Pick 26
Laiatu Latu is older and has some injury history, but on the field he's a nasty pass-rush move specialist who'd instantly boost Tampa Bay's pass rush.
| |||||||
Round 1 - Pick 27
This is a steal for the Cardinals, landing Byron Murphy II this late. He's a super-disruptive interior pass rusher who holds up well against the run, too.
| |||||||
Mock Trade from
Buffalo Bills
Round 1 - Pick 28
The Panthers can't resist adding someone with Xavier Worthy's speed to the offense. They send No. 33 overall and No. 101 to Buffalo for this selection and a seventh-round pick (No. 248).
| |||||||
Round 1 - Pick 29
Kool-Aid McKinstry is one of the cleanest prospects in the class, and this fills an immediate need for the Lions.
| |||||||
Round 1 - Pick 30
Braden Fiske is simply too athletic and was too productive in the ACC for the Ravens to pass on him here.
| |||||||
Round 1 - Pick 31
Tyler Guyton looks like an oversized tight end, and with quality coaching, can be one of the better blockers from this class.
| |||||||
Round 1 - Pick 32
The Chiefs solidify the left side of their offensive line with the talented and versatile Jordan Morgan.
