NFL mock draft: Projecting the first three rounds of the 2024 NFL Draft
The 2024 NFL Draft is set to begin Thursday, and it’s time for final mock drafts. We’ll be taking a shot at it with a three-round mock draft of our own. There are no trades projected, but there will likely be plenty at the top of the draft.
Scroll below for projections for all 100 picks in the first three rounds of the draft.
First round
1. Chicago Bears (from Carolina) — USC QB Caleb Williams
Bears general manager Ryan Poles said this week that the team has decided on who it will take on Thursday, but the public will have to wait to find out. Well, not really. Williams is going to be the choice and for very good reason. He’s a generational talent at quarterback who has shades of Patrick Mahomes to his game. No, we’re not saying he’s going to be Mahomes, but the off-platform throws and magician-level escapability make it hard not to see those flashes.
