Most of the time, mock drafts are meant to be predictive, as analysts sort through information to guess what teams might be thinking come the NFL Draft. Every once in a while, it’s nice to break the monotony of mock drafts with some out-of-the-box thinking, such as you’re about to encounter in this latest 2024 NFL Mock Draft. After finishing the top 50 of my initial 2024 NFL Draft Big Board, I have opinions about what teams should do. This early in the process, every mock has a dash or two of the writer’s opinion, but most reflect what we’re hearing about teams, their needs, and the players they’re leaning toward in the annual selection event. But this mock is different. Rather than focus on what teams might do or what they could do, it suggests what teams should do when they’re on the clock in April.
