The first round of the 2024 NFL draft is sure to be filled with plenty of drama with the top-four quarterbacks projected to go early. Teams should be lining up out the door with trade offers in an effort to land a franchise quarterback that could potentially turn them into this year’s version of the Houston Texans. Unlike most drafts, this draft has three quarterbacks that could easily be considered the No. 1 prospect on the entire board. While Caleb Williams is expected to be the first player taken, both Drake Maye and Jayden Daniels are clearly talented enough to be in that same position. Meanwhile, the J.J. McCarthy love has picked up significantly in the stretch run to draft night. This mock draft explores multiple trade up scenarios where teams are looking to swing for the fences with big prospect acquisitions, along with teams looking to acquire more draft picks to better fill out their existing rosters.
