Zak Drapeau's NFL Offseason Review Part 2: Way Too Early 2024 Mock Draft


C/O to "Bengal" on Youtube.com

Welcome to Mock Draft season!

With the 2023 NFL Draft in the rear view mirror it's time to set our sites on the 2024 NFL Draft and what a draft it will be. Headlined by three generational offensive talents surely to be followed by many others that will show out in the 2023 NCAAF season.

Caleb Williams, quarterback of USC, Marvin Harrison Jr., wide receiver of Ohio State and Drake Maye, quarterback of UNC are the blue chip prospects similar to Bryce Young and Will Anderson were this year. Many others will become such as the year unfolds in what is thought to be a very deep class for both positions.

A "Way-Too-Early Mock Draft" is more of a showcase of these players and less about what team picks where. That being said, I have ranked every team based on my projections for there season's outcome, a lit I will be releasing in part 3 of this series.

NO TRADES. I find it foolish to predict trades for a mock draft where I am 7 months away from knowing anything about the true order.

I will make these notes for possible trades however:

- The Rams trade up for a QB

- The Cardinals trade one of their first round picks for a player, draft capitol or perhaps both

Ok, enough with the prologue, let's get into the draft.
