2024 NFL Mock Draft: While Chiefs, 49ers focus on Super Bowl, other 30 teams prepare for three-day draft event

The Commanders make the bold ascension to pair Williams with Kliff Kingsbury in the nation’s capital. New owner Josh Harris puts his stamp on his team.

The Bears opt for door No. 2 that features the reigning Heisman winner and a boatload of picks to continue to build the roster.

If Maye is to fall, that slip might really take off here if the Patriots don’t pick him at No. 3 overall. In this mock, they add a big, dynamic vertical threat to the receiver group with Harrison Jr.

Odunze can step in as the primary “X” receiver on the perimeter in Arizona for Kyler Murray.

New GM Joe Hortiz identifies the interior of the Chargers defensive line one of the team’s most glaring weaknesses, and Murphy is an uber-athletic and powerful penetrator.

Even with Daniel Jones and Tyrod Taylor on the roster, the Giants can’t pass on the big-bodied talent with Maye here at No. 6.

Fuaga is a thick, powerful, and agile pass blocker who also brings plenty of pop in the run game. This is what the Titans desperately need at tackle.

The Falcons add a premier, NFL-ready outside rusher to the defense. Huge need filled.

Home run Top 10 for the Bears. They move back, get Daniels and land his LSU wideout in Nabers to round out the receiver group. Nabers and Moore would be a nightmare duo to corral after the catch.

There’s a touch of projection with Alt — he needs to get stronger. Technically, he’s all set. This Jets have to address the offensive front with Aaron Rodgers set to return in 2024.

The Vikings go with McCarthy, who has plus arm talent and athleticism, two things the quarterback spot has lacked in Minnesota during the productive Kirk Cousins era.

If the Broncos do trade Russell Wilson, they’ll of course be in the quarterback market. Nix became an awesome point guard after transferring to Oregon, and that’s precisely what Sean Payton would ask him to do in his offense.

Arnold is a super-fluid athlete who became a ballhawking corner in his final season at Alabama. Huge boost for the Raiders secondary.

Fashanu is a young, highly talented left tackle with sky-high upside. He’s an investment the Saints should make at this juncture.

Wiggins is a sleek athlete on the perimeter who was around the football often in the air for the Tigers in 2023.

More offensive weaponry for Geno Smith. This is nice value for such a complete, dynamic tight end prospect.

Latham would be a prudent selection for a Jaguars team that needs to get the most out of Trevor Lawrence.

If Tee Higgins bolts in free agency, another sizable and athletic wideout would be sensible for the Bengals offense. I have a feeling Thomas is going to be a riser during the pre-draft process. Big and fast.

Kinches can be the quarterback of the Rams defense and make an impact in a variety of ways from his safety spot.

How about a cornerback pairing of Mitchell and Joey Porter Jr. for the next 5-7 years in Pittsburgh?

If Connor Williams isn’t re-signed, uh yeah, the Dolphins have a gaping hole at center, and Powers-Johnson is one rather large and athletic blocker at that position.

The Eagles absolutely need to address their secondary early in the draft, and McKinstry has long looked like a future first-round pick on the field.

DeMeco Ryans adds a secondary chess piece to the defense with twitchy movements and plus ball skills.

Nubin is a three-down safety who, given the Cowboys’ pass-rush capabilities, could become a turnover machine in Dallas.

Lassiter pieced together a fine season at Georgia and possesses first-round-caliber traits. The Packers haven’t been shy about drafting defensive backs in Round 1.

Turner enjoyed a productive 2023 at Alabama and has plus athleticism around the corner.

Head coach Jonathan Gannon sees a little Haason Reddick in Robinson when he’s flying around the corner.

Franklin is a tall speedster whose numbers increased in each of his three seasons at Oregon. There’s some after-the-catch juice to his game too. Precisely what the Bills need offensively.

Robinson could actually go higher than this, but if he’s here, the Missouri star would be sensible for a Lions club that needs another rusher up front opposite Aidan Hutchinson.

Another beefy but polished defensive lineman for the Ravens. Newton was awesome at Illinois and can really rush the passer.

Shifty with great hands and plenty of explosiveness, don’t be surprised if McConkey lands in Round 1. He’d be a fun addition to the Chiefs offense, and can hit the ground running in Kansas City.

The 49ers want to remain stout up front on defense, and Taylor can become an instant starter next to Javon Hargrave.
