With the preseason wrapped up and final cuts happening around the NFL, we decided to update our 2024 NFL mock draft. The draft order this time around was determined by the Pro Football Network mock draft simulator but the picks are all mine.
College football is going full speed ahead and most NFL franchises have their scouts hard at work on the road checking out every draft prospect imaginable.
Most pundits at this point have USC quarterback Caleb Williams as the top player with Ohio State wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. just behind him. This draft class is shaping up to be absolutely loaded at some positions but there are even more guys who are poised for breakout seasons and that will tip a mock draft like this on its head.
1 - Arizona Cardinals - WR Marvin Harrison Jr., Ohio State
