Every April, I construct an entire seven-round NFL mock draft that makes an attempt to seek out properties for faculty prospects based mostly on their worth, in addition to the roster wants and schemes of all 32 professional groups.
We’re bringing again the mock draft idea to re-imagine the NFL panorama for a 3rd straight 12 months, with groups constructing balanced rosters — together with veteran and younger expertise on each side of the ball — designed to WIN NOW.
This type of mass redistribution of expertise clearly would by no means occur in actual life. However with coaching camps nonetheless just a few weeks away, let’s have a bit enjoyable with one other seven-round mock forward of the 2024 NFL season.
This mock draft is just one model of numerous potential projections, given gamers’ anticipated on-field efficiency in 2024 (assuming they’re all on one-year contracts) and every group’s present teaching workers and entrance workplace.
Earlier than we get began, just a few essential notes:
- Groups are listed based mostly on the first-round order from the 2024 NFL Draft, restoring traded or forfeited picks to the unique holders.
- The next rounds are “snaked” to distribute expertise evenly among the many 32 franchises — that’s, the order of Spherical 1 is reversed in Spherical 2, which is reversed in Spherical 3, and so forth. The order does account for tiebreakers from spherical to spherical, although, so it is not a straight snake all through.
- No trades or compensatory choices have been included.
