We’re just a month out from the 2024 NFL Draft, and it’s positioning to be a historic one for a variety of reasons. For one, it’s time to fully expect that the first four picks of the first round will all be quarterbacks for the first time in NFL history.
But secondly, and most exciting for NFL clubs who aren’t in the market for a quarterback, it’s one of the strongest top of the drafts in recent memory, with as many as six offensive tackles, four receivers and a handful of elite defenders who would be top-10 picks in almost any other draft.
Expect some fireworks at the top of the draft for a quarterback, followed by a lot of teams thankful they can sit back and get a potential franchise cornerstone throughout the top half of the first round.
