The path to the NFL promised bright futures for Penn State’s Olu Fashanu and Chop Robinson when their names were called in the first round of the 2024 draft. But their collegiate brotherhood will soon turn into an AFC East rivalry as the offensive tackle and edge rusher find themselves on opposite sidelines for years to come.
For the 11th overall pick Fashanu, job security on the New York Jets’ offensive line is no guarantee out of the gates.
As the 2024 NFL Draft approaches, the Minnesota Vikings find themselves in a pivotal position, armed with two first-round picks and a pressing need for a franchise quarterback. With Kirk Cousins’ departure to the Atlanta Falcons, speculation has been rife about the Vikings’ potential trade partners as they seek to secure their signal-caller of the future.
While the Arizona Cardinals, holding the coveted fourth overall pick, have been widely discussed as a potential trade target, recent reports suggest that the Los Angeles Chargers, with the fifth selection, might prove to be a more viable option for the Vikings.
The 2024 NFL draft promises to be a blockbuster event, with several teams already making significant moves to secure their desired picks. As the excitement builds, let’s take a look at the major trades that have shaken up the draft order so far.
One of the biggest stories leading up to the draft is the Carolina Panthers’ bold move to trade up with the Chicago Bears for the coveted No. 1 overall pick last year.
As the 2024 NFL Draft approaches, rumors are swirling around some of the top quarterback prospects and the teams that may be targeting them. Two names that have been prominently mentioned are Drake Maye from North Carolina and J.J. McCarthy from Michigan.
According to reports, the New England Patriots seem to have Maye higher on their draft board compared to McCarthy. ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler mentioned that sources indicate the Patriots have LSU’s Jayden Daniels as their top-rated quarterback prospect, followed by Maye and then McCarthy.
As the 2024 NFL Draft draws closer, speculation and predictions are running rampant about which prospects will hear their names called in the coveted first round. Among the buzz, one name stands out as a potential surprise: Kamari Lassiter, the standout cornerback from the University of Georgia Bulldogs.
Lauren Gray, an analyst for Pro Football Focus, has boldly declared Lassiter as a candidate to be a surprise first-round selection. While Lassiter is widely regarded as one of the top cornerbacks in the upcoming draft class, most mock drafts have him slated to come off the board in the later rounds.
