2024 NFL Mock Draft: Jayden Daniels, Rome Odunze, Brian Thomas Jr.

Now that the Super Bowl is officially in the books, I decided to take another look at how the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft could turn out. Numerous picks have been changed since my last attempt, in part to reflect changes in the stocks of different prospects, in part based on a further review of team needs, and in part for the sake of experimentation. Here is my latest full 2024 NFL Mock Draft. Below we dive into a few notable picks.

2024 NFL Mock Draft

3. New England Patriots – Jayden Daniels (QB – LSU)

I had Harrison going third last time, and that’s still a real possibility here, especially with the quarterbacks that could be available at the top of the second round. For me, Harrison is clearly the best player available at this point, but in an effort to map up some different scenarios, let’s see what would happen if the Patriots flipped the order they addressed these two positions in, taking a wideout in the second or third round instead of here.

6. New York Giants – Rome Odunze (WR – Washington)

This pick hasn’t changed since last time, and the reasons for targeting a receiver here should be fairly straightforward. Simply put, the Giants don’t have a proven number-one option on their roster. As a complement to some of the other physical/athletic profiles in the team’s receiver room, I like the size and physicality Odunze brings, so he gets the edge over Nabers.

32. Kansas City Chiefs – Brian Thomas Jr. (WR – LSU)

Does Andy Reid have a type at wide receiver? I’m not sure, as he’s drafted players with a wide range of skillsets and body types. Making this pick tougher, there are several similarly-ranked receivers available. I wonder whether the Chiefs, who relied heavily on the short passing game in 2023, would like to bring in more of a downfield target here.
