The 2024 NFL Draft is about to get underway in Detroit, and ESPN’s televised draft coverage will once again be a mainstay for plenty of NFL fans.
However, one of the network’s long-time draft analysts, Todd McShay, will not be part of future ESPN coverage on the popular event going forward.
The network let McShay go last summer amid its talent layoffs, ending his nearly two-decade run as one of ESPN’s top draft analysts alongside like Mel Kiper and Louis Riddick, among others.
While McShay hasn’t yet landed with another network, he did post some of his thoughts for how this year’s first round might shape up.
No 2024 NFL Mock Draft ⛓️ for me. But here’s what I’m hearing…
1. CHI QB Caleb ☑️
2. WASH QB Jayden ☑️
3. NE plan:
-HIGHLY LIKELY the Pats stick and pick Maye.
-Would only move back if A. They get a HAUL to move back and B. They have a 2nd trade in place with AZ at 4 or LAC at…— Todd McShay (@McShay13) April 25, 2024
While McShay will not be on any ESPN broadcasts for the foreseeable future, there are still plenty of recognizable names that will be broadcasting this year’s coverage on various networks.
Perhaps McShay will be elsewhere next year to help cover the 2025 NFL Draft when it takes place in Green Bay.
