Draft Season has come and gone, or did it?! We at Draft Countdown are already looking ahead to the 2024 NFL Draft. Now, I will say I expect teams to trade up to pick 1, as teams will fall in love with another crop of quarterbacks. Caleb Williams, Drake Maye, Bo Nix, Michael Penix Jr, and Quinn Ewers, to name a few!
When I look to do mock drafts, even ones this early, I know quarterbacks, edge rushers, cornerbacks, and wide receivers will be heavy in the first round. You’ll see me sneak in a couple of my current favorite linebackers and offensive lineman as well.
I would like to say the whole 5th-year option weighs heavy on my decision-making, though this early in the process I just focused on the players that are at the top of my board at the present time! As we get into the college season, I’m sure this will change considerably, though quarterbacks will still be near the top in some way.
As always if you want to talk all things football, hit me up on Twitter or over on the Draft Countdown Discord! And check out the rest of my work here.
