NFL: 2024 NFL draft discussion thread, Draft begins 4/25 8pm, 4/26 6pm, 4/27 12pm

Those are my top 3 needs for them. Maybe CB first with Sutton being released. They need some depth at Safety but probably wait until day 3. Still some decent free agent Safeties left too. Oh and draft a kicker late so we hopefully don't have to rely on Badgley again.

Alright, the annual Raiders first round pick selection.
Thankfully, it's ran by competent people this time around.

First one for Pierce/Telesco regime, here's hoping its a good one.

 

[Tuggy]

The day is finally here...long ass wait having a top 3 pick.

Assuming Williams and Daniels go 1/2, then I expect the Pats to take Maye. I'm not completely against MHJ, although I can't see them going that route. Also trading down isn't the worst case scenario. But only if they get any offer they can't refuse.

 

[WeThreeKings]

Too many people mocking DeJean to the Packers so naturally we won't get him.

Maybe for old time's sake they will go out and draft whoever the fastest guy in the draft is with their 1st rounder. One more time for Al

 

[John Price]

so much media speculation and hype over the last few weeks leading up to this draft

honestly i see it going stock from 1-5 and then someone might trade up for mccarthy

1 Williams
2 Daniels
3 Maye
4 MHJ
5 SD trades down, Minn? gets McCarthy

No doubt in my mind that if Al was still around they would draft Xavier Worthy at 13.

If the 3 go at the top what would be the price for Giants to move into 4 and get a QB?

Arizona would get more assets and quarantee one of Harrison/Nabers

Either someone heard something, or someone speculated and every other draft analyst jumped on the band wagon. In the last 24 hours, Latham goes to the Chargers at 5 in the following mock drafts:

The draft is now less than 24 hours away, so let’s get right to it. Using both what I’ve watched and what I’ve heard, I have constructed my final predictive mock for the 2024 NFL Draft.

Our latest intel has at least five quarterbacks coming off the board, along with several receivers and offensive linemen among the 32 picks.

And was also discussed at a target after a tradedown in the Bootleg YouTube channel mock draft.

 

[cheechoo]

Joe Alt or Malik Nabers would change my life tonight at pick 7.

 

[Unholy Diver]

Most of those final Mocks are pretty similar, everyone sticking pretty much to chalk, who will be the team this year that pulls off the pick that makes all the network guys gasp and say they had that guy going mid to late 2nd. Someone always seems to do it

And are we 100% certain Washington goes Daniels and not Maye? It seems that is what all the mocks are showing

It is what all the mocks are showing, but the front office may think differently. The media "groupthink" is powerful and is mocking JD to DC, but for all we know the front office may have someone else in mind.

It's not a lock by any means

Please give me JPJ to the Steelers so the main team board can eat shit and I love high quality centers.

And JJ McCarthy reminds me so much of Ken Dorsey when he was at Miami that I just do not see the hype with him.

I've heard teams have him flagged as an injury risk.

Brugler cites medicals as ‘important’ for Oregon center Jackson Powers-Johnson

After rising up draft boards early in the draft process, it seems like most analysts have "cooled" on Oregon prospect Jackson Powers-Johnson. Are his medicals the reason?

Yeah apparently a concussion issue. We don't need any more Centers with concussion problems in Pittsburgh

 

[AtlantaWhaler]

YES...So amped. It's finally here.

Hoping the Falcons trades back and still picks up one of the big-3 pass rushers.

 

[hockey20000]

lucked out and ended up being no work tonight can watch draft in peace instead of ignoring social media and watching it tomrrow when i wake up lol

OL

Lions have needs like every other team. My point is that they are in the position where they don't need to reach for anyone. Which is also why rumors are floating that they may trade out of the first round altogether.

 

[HisIceness]

I hope the Chicago Bears send several thank you gifts to Scott Fitterer and David Tepper tonight.

OL

I certainly wouldn't be upset if they go OL with one of the first 3 picks but I don't think it's a major need right now. They already have the best OL in the league but Ragnow's health is definitely concerning along with Glasgow and Zeitler being in their 30's. Probably wouldn't hurt to start developing guys behind them. I'm fine with just adding depth thru free agency this year and drafting a couple guys next year. They definitely are in a position where they don't need to reach and I won't be surprised if they do trade out of round 1. I do think CB is a major concern though and they need to draft one in the first or second round. Either that or sign Stephon Gilmore. I'm not comfortable at all with just Davis, Robertson and Moseley playing outside corner.

You guys are going to draft another "offensive weapon" and you'll like it!

"But Brock Bowers is BPA"

 

[sigma six]

Wooo, it's Fautanu time! I'd also be stoked with a DT pick like Byron Murphy, just use that first pick for the heavies, please.

Unless Seattle does what they often used to, and trade down to recoup their lost second rounder. Always a possibility.

 

[BigBadBruins7708]

got a bad feeling the Patriots are gonna drop the ball and take McCarthy

Alt would be my guess
