Turn the draft card in already; it’s Williams to the Bears

The Commanders seemed poised to land the commander of the LSU offense and Heisman Trophy winner with the second pick.

Sure to be a polarizing choice, but McCarthy has only solidified himself as a top quarterback prospect. The Patriots kick off the post-Belichick era with a QB bang.

Not working out at Ohio State’s pro day after also skipping the scouting combine creates some drama around Harrison that probably doesn’t need to be there. It doesn’t change his dominant, complete game tape, which sets Harrison apart from any wideout prospect since Calvin Johnson.

Trade details: Minnesota sends No. 11, No. 23, No. 177 and a 2025 first-round pick to the Chargers for No. 5 and No. 105, plus a 2025 fourth-round pick.

The Vikings didn’t collect an extra first-rounder from the Texans to stand pat. They move up and land Maye as the successor to Kirk Cousins.

With QB off the table, the Giants land a player many consider to be the best wideout in this draft.

The Titans traded for CB L’Jarius Sneed, and that shifts the need focus back to the offensive line. New OL coach Bill Callahan landing the high-end Alt is something Titans fans should relish.

Turner’s increased bulk at Alabama’s pro day likely solidified him as the first defensive player off the board. He’d make an excellent fit for the Falcons, who need to amp up the pass rush.

Bowers can function as a tight end, a slot, a big wideout, an h-back, you name it. Pairing him with a creator like Caleb Williams and with D.J. Moore and newly acquired Keenan Allen, the Bears have the potential for a dynamic passing offense.

Fuaga has a chance to be a very good right tackle right away. The Jets signed a pair of 33-year-old stopgaps to play tackle, so adding youthful potential makes a ton of sense.

After trading back, the Chargers reload their depleted receiving corps with a player who would have been WR1 for many in the 2023 and 2022 draft classes.

Latu instantly becomes the best pass rusher on the roster with his craftiness and technical savvy, plus his pretty impressive athletic prowess.

Mitchell’s rise into a top-15 prospect is no fluke. The Rockets star blasts into a Raiders secondary that needs some help. I had OL here but threw a bone to new head coach Antonio Pierce and his defensive background instead.

Latham is one of the most difficult players to slot in this draft. His athletic potential doesn’t always get reflected in his on-field play, though there is enough good film from Alabama to convince the Saints that he’s an upgrade over Trevor Penning at left tackle.

Unless the Colts can add a legit starting CB between now and the draft, they desperately need a corner upgrade. That’s Arnold, a high-end prospect with scheme versatility.

The versatile Fautanu has starting potential at multiple spots, helping build up one of the NFL’s most promising young offensive lines.

Coleman flashed high-end playmaking ability for a bigger wideout in his one season at Florida State. He’s a natural replacement for what Calvin Ridley provided the Jaguars a year ago.

The biggest question here isn’t whether the Bengals will go offensive line; it’s which one they choose. Fashanu’s athletic upside and potential to play either left or right tackle has to intrigue Cincinnati.

Robinson is one of those players that the NFL seems higher on than the draft media. He’s a promising fit for a Rams pass rush that needs a new way after Aaron Donald retired.

Trade details: Bills trade No. 28 and No. 60 in 2024 plus a 2025 first-round pick to the Steelers for No. 20 and No. 98 overall

The Bills move up to land the fastest man in NFL Scouting Combine history in hopes of advancing their aerial assault on opposing defenses.

The Dolphins go big with Newton, the best interior attack dog in the draft.

Trade details: Cardinals trade No. 27, No. 35 and No. 186 to the Eagles for No. 22 and No. 161

Arizona moves up to land the talented McKinstry, who immediately vaults to the top of their CB depth chart.

The earlier trade back facilitates new head coach Jim Harbaugh landing his type of lineman in Barton, who can start at tackle or center.

You’re welcome, Cowboys fans…

Murphy can slide right into a Packers DL rotation and provide some needed depth and pass-rush propensity for a team that doesn’t have any starting spots open anywhere in 2024 heading into the draft.

Verse is unexpectedly available and the Buccaneers don’t hesitate to pounce on the promising pass rusher to restock their defensive front

After trading back, the Eagles land the versatile DeJean, who can play outside CB, free safety and even some heavy nickel. He might’ve been the choice at 22…

The trade back gives the Steelers a more value-added landing spot for Thomas, who could thrive as the vertical threat in the new-look Pittsburgh offense.

Trade details: Commanders trade No. 36 and No. 40 to the Lions for No. 29, No. 205 and a 2025 fourth-round pick

Sensing a growing scarcity of outside CBs, Washington moves back into the first round to snatch the speedy Wiggins.

The Ravens are always good at drafting football players who happen to be really good athletes. That’s Sainristil, who showed at Michigan’s pro day he might be one of the best slot receivers in this draft aside from being a ready-made starting slot corner.

Morgan can capably play either guard or tackle and offers upside at both spots, a nice piece for a 49ers team that needs upgrades and depth.

Mims could be the best tackle in this draft class in three years. That tantalizing upside will be hard for the OT-challenged world champs to pass with the final pick of the first round.
