7-round NFL mock draft: Dane Brugler predicts all 257 picks

EditorLast Update :
7-round NFL mock draft: Dane Brugler predicts all 257 picks

For my second-to-last mock draft of the 2024 NFL Draft process (my final mock will go up the morning of Round 1), I’m taking a stab at all 257 picks across all seven rounds.

Piecing together a mock like this is time consuming, but I enjoy the exercise, because it allows me to focus on each team’s needs, organizational trends and prospect-team pairings that make sense based on “30” visits, league buzz and overall interest.

At the bottom of the article, I included the team-by-team hauls for a cleaner look at what each class looks like in this mock draft.

(Note: An asterisk indicates a trade for the purposes of this mock.)

NFL Draft 2024 ‘The Beast’ Guide: Dane Brugler’s scouting reports and player rankings

Nothing is official until commissioner Roger Goodell steps to the podium in Detroit and announces the selection, but Williams will be a Bear in a little more than a week.

The draft winds will continue to swirl in unpredictable directions up until draft night. Right now, though, the buzz is pointing towards Daniels being the pick at No. 2. Truth is, new Washington general manager Adam Peters and head coach Dan Quinn aren’t tipping their hands, so everyone is still guessing at this point.

Listening to trade offers is the responsible move for de facto general manager Eliot Wolf. But it is tough to imagine the Patriots passing on a quarterback here, especially if Maye makes it to No. 3. Owner Robert Kraft is not interested in another offensive season like last year in New England.

(Projected trade: Vikings trade picks Nos. 11 and 23 and a 2025 third-round pick to the Cardinals for No. 4.)

It is no secret that the Vikings are quarterback shopping in the NFL Draft, but how high can they trade up to secure their guy? In this scenario, Minnesota jumps to No. 4 for McCarthy, which would mark the first time in NFL Draft history we see quarterbacks drafted 1-2-3-4 overall.

(Projected trade: Cardinals trade picks Nos. 11 and 35 to the Chargers for No. 5.)

Just like last year, Cardinals general manager Monti Ossenfort works the phones to trade out of the top five … but then jumps right back up to grab an Ohio State stud. In 2023, it was Paris Johnson Jr.; this year it’s Harrison. The smooth maneuvering costs Arizona the No. 35 pick here, but it adds No. 23 and a 2025 third-rounder for essentially moving back one spot.

I think the Giants will examine their trade-up options for a quarterback, but in this scenario, they stay put and add the true premier weapon they have been missing. Nabers would have been my No. 1 overall prospect in each of the last two draft classes.

For the sake of being different, I could throw another name in here — but why go away from what makes sense? Alt fills a clear hole and (along with 2023 first-round left guard Peter Skoronski) would give the Titans one of the more promising left sides of an offensive line in the league.

8. Atlanta Falcons: Dallas Turner, Edge, Alabama

There is a good chance we see something this year that has happened just once (2021) in the Super Bowl era: no defensive players selected in the first seven picks of the draft. If that comes to fruition, the Falcons will have their choice of the top defensive player on their board at No. 8 — and I don’t think many people will be surprised if that is Turner.

9. Chicago Bears: Rome Odunze, WR, Washington

With only four draft picks this year, general manager Ryan Poles will be enticed by trade-back opportunities here to recoup draft capital. But when the Bears are feeling left out in the second round, they can throw on Odunze highlights and feel just fine about this decision. Adding Keenan Allen was a no-brainer, but he might only be a one-year rental.

If you focus only on the “TE” positional designation here, you might not love this pick. But if you pay attention to the dynamic impact Bowers can bring to an offense, this isn’t a hard sell. The Napa, Calif., native is as much a tight end as he is a slot receiver who can also block inline or line up outside. The Jets are in a win-now mindset, and Bowers makes the offense better from day one.

NFL teams know the best way to draft, so why aren’t they doing it?

Trading back for an offensive lineman would be an unsurprising move for the Chargers. The bigger mystery might be which offensive lineman they prefer. Oregon State’s Taliese Fuaga is a devastating run blocker and Washington’s Troy Fautanu has legitimate position versatility, but I’ll go with Latham, who is arguably the strongest player in the draft and was recruited out of high school not too long ago by Jim Harbaugh.

With Garett Bolles entering the final year of his deal, the Broncos have done plenty of homework on the tackles in this draft class. Fuaga can compete for a spot at guard as a rookie while being the long-term plan at tackle.

The Raiders will certainly consider several offensive and defensive linemen at this spot. With two worthy cornerback prospects on the board, though, both Arnold and Quinyon Mitchell will be part of the conversation. I wouldn’t be surprised to see either corner here, but Arnold has the dog mentality that speaks directly to Antonio Pierce.

Considering the Saints’ depth chart and the players expected to be drafted in this range, offensive tackle makes too much sense. And Fashanu might be the best-case scenario for New Orleans.

It wouldn’t be surprising to see the Colts go with a dynamic pass catcher at 15, especially if Bowers is still available. But Mitchell is an ideal fit, too, considering his tape, on-ball production and traits.

The safe bet might be a trade down by the Seahawks, but it would be tough to move away from Fautanu if he falls here. Though the Huskies’ left tackle can stay on the outside if needed, his skill set could be maximized inside and would give the Seahawks appealing versatility across the offensive line.

(Projected trade: Bills trade picks Nos. 28, 133, 144 and a 2025 second-rounder to the Jaguars for No. 17.)

The Bills need their draft picks to remodel the roster with young, low-priced depth, but general manager Brandon Beane is an aggressive drafter and has never shied away from moving up in the first round to get his guy. Thomas is an outstanding size/speed athlete with better route-running skill than given he’s credit for, and he’d give Josh Allen a new WR1 on offense.

With his explosive twitch and natural leverage, Murphy moves differently than any other defensive tackle in this draft class. He is equally disruptive versus the run and when rushing the passer — something the Bengals are looking to add to the roster.

Since Sean McVay became head coach, the Rams have picked in the top 60 six times — all six have been offensive players. But it feels like that will change this year with the Rams back in the first round and needing so many upgrades on defense, including at edge rusher. Verse brings all-day power and disruption with a motor that doesn’t quit.

The Steelers have multiple needs on the offensive line, and Barton offers the five-position versatility that would allow Pittsburgh to get its best five on the field. In the long term, he’ll lock down the center position for the Steelers’ offense.

NFL folks might be sleeping on these draft prospects, our CFB experts say

The Dolphins weren’t scared off by Jaelan Phillips’ injury past, and I don’t think they will shy away from Latu’s either. With Bradley Chubb and Phillips working their way back from injury, Latu and his savvy pass-rush skills can contribute immediately in Miami.

This would be an ideal landing spot for the inexperienced Mims. After making just eight starts at Georgia, he can earn his graduate degree from “Stoutland University” (under the watchful eye of Eagles O-line coach Jeff Stoutland) before taking over for Lane Johnson as the right tackle of the future. The Athens-to-Philadelphia pipeline remains fruitful.

23. Arizona Cardinals (from MIN)*: Cooper DeJean, CB, Iowa

Head coach Jonathan Gannon will be targeting savvy, high-character players in the draft. DeJean — and his versatility in the secondary — fits the bill.

Ideally, the Cowboys would love to keep Tyler Smith at left guard, but it might depend on how this draft plays out. In this scenario, they add the raw but toolsy tackle, who they hope will be the next Tyron Smith.

There are several ways the Packers can attack the offensive line in the draft. One of those is to select Powers-Johnson, who can provide an upgrade at center and allow Green Bay to keep Zach Tom at tackle while moving Josh Myers to guard.

The Buccaneers have more questions than established answers on their cornerback depth chart, especially after the Carlton Davis trade. Although his marginal play strength is a red flag, Wiggins is a high-level athlete with cover awareness that will appeal to coach Todd Bowles.

27. Arizona Cardinals (from HOU): Chop Robinson, Edge, Penn State

With Harrison, DeJean and Robinson, this is an All-Big Ten first round for Arizona. Robinson doesn’t have the body of work (15 tackles, four sacks over 10 games in 2023) that teams ideally target this early, but his first-step explosion is different than any other pass rusher in this class.

28. Jacksonville Jaguars (from BUF)*: Kool-Aid McKinstry, CB, Alabama

In this scenario, the Jaguars are able to move down in the first round and still address the cornerback position with a strong option. McKinstry might not have elite speed, but he’s confident, controlled and smart, which will get him on the field as a rookie.

29. Las Vegas Raiders (from DET)*: Michael Penix Jr., QB, Washington

(Projected trade: Raiders trade picks Nos. 44 and 77 to the Lions for No. 29.)

According to The Athletic’s Vic Tafur, “the whispers are getting louder” that the Raiders might draft Penix at No. 13. But this scenario feels like the better option, even if it means parting with a pair of Day 2 draft picks. A polarizing player among NFL front offices, Penix is an aggressive downfield passer with the mental toughness that will certainly stand out for Pierce and his staff.

Considered a tackle by some teams and a guard by others, Morgan would provide immediate depth at both spots for the Ravens. He is well schooled as both a run blocker and pass protector and has the athletic balance to match up well against NFL defensive linemen.

Regardless of their perceived top needs, the 49ers are always looking for upgrades on the defensive line. Newton doesn’t have ideal size for what San Francisco wants (similar to how he fits in most schemes), but his disruptive nature and relentless play personality are qualities that help him overcome average measurements.

This is a fun pairing of player and team. Mitchell is a loose, limber pass catcher and has the ingredients to be the top weapon for an NFL offense.

Thoughts on a few Round 2 selections:

33. Carolina Panthers: Ladd McConkey, WR, Georgia

For Bryce Young to take that next step in his development, the Panthers need to add more offensive weapons — particularly receivers who can separate. McConkey might be small, but his ability to create space in his routes would make him Young’s new best friend.

35. Los Angeles Chargers: Kris Jenkins, DT, Michigan

It will feel like an upset if the Chargers don’t draft either Jenkins, Junior Colson or Mike Sainristil — all Michigan products — early in Round 2. I could make an argument why any of the three would make sense, and it will be interesting to see which former Wolverine Jim Harbaugh and defensive coordinator Jesse Minter prefer.

46. Indianapolis Colts: Ricky Pearsall, WR, Florida

There is a good chance the Colts get a pass catcher in Round 1. If they don’t (like in this scenario), reuniting Pearsall with Anthony Richardson in the second round makes a lot of sense. Pearsall can line up across the formation in Shane Steichen’s scheme.

54. Cleveland Browns: Maason Smith, DT, LSU

Teams want 6-foot-5 and 300-plus pounds in the trenches. Those D-line types are in short supply in this draft class, which will help push Smith up the board. With his age and talent, the LSU product makes sense for Cleveland, as it looks to add depth on the defensive line.

63. San Francisco 49ers: Andru Phillips, CB, Kentucky

Phillips is one of my favorite Day 2 prospects in this draft class — and the 49ers also are fond of the speedy nickel. Phillips’ lack of high-end ball production isn’t ideal, but he competes, stays in phase and has the makeup that will endear him to NFL coaching.

Thoughts on a few Round 3 selections:

70. New York Giants: Trey Benson, RB, Florida State

The Giants have a handful of names on their running back depth chart, but no difference-makers. Benson isn’t the most instinctive ball carrier, but his contact balance and big-play potential would be a great fit in Brian Daboll’s offense.

75. Chicago Bears: Chris Braswell, Edge, Alabama

The Bears’ lack of picks in this draft puts a little more pressure on Poles to get this one right. But Braswell — and his explosive flashes — feels like an ideal scenario at No. 75 for Chicago, which is still looking to add firepower at edge rusher.

97. Cincinnati Bengals: D.J. James, CB, Auburn

If this pick happens, the Bengals would have a secondary that includes D.J. James, DJ Turner and D.J. Ivey. James is a quick-reaction athlete who can be the nickel corner of the future with Mike Hilton in the final year of his contract.

100. Washington Commanders: Brenden Rice, WR, USC

Looking at the Commanders’ receiver depth chart, there is plenty of speed but not much size. Rice is 6-2 1/2 and 208 with the body and play strength to be a physical presence on the outside. And his Hall of Fame bloodlines don’t hurt.

Thoughts on a few Round 4 picks:

104. Arizona Cardinals: Sedrick Van Pran-Granger, C, Georgia

Like I mentioned earlier in this mock draft, character (football and personal) will be a critical factor in whom the Cardinals draft, and Van Pran-Granger is one of the best leaders this class has to offer. He can compete with Hjalte Froholdt for starting center reps in Year 1.

115. Cincinnati Bengals: T’Vondre Sweat, DT, Texas

Reuniting Murphy and Sweat on the same defensive line in the NFL? I’m here for it. With some of the off-field and conditioning questions surrounding Sweat, I don’t think he will be drafted on the first two days — but he becomes an interesting Day 3 wild card. Though there is obvious risk with this player, the fourth round might be a spot where the Bengals feel comfortable with him, especially given their need at nose tackle.

125. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Audric Estime, RB, Notre Dame

The Buccaneers are excited for Rachaad White this upcoming season, but it wouldn’t be a surprise if they draft another running back to help carry the load. And Estime has the bruising run style that complements White well.

130. Baltimore Ravens: Mohamed Kamara, Edge, Colorado State

The Ravens have high hopes for previous early-round picks Odafe Oweh and David Ojabo, but they will likely draft more pass-rush help at some point in the first four rounds. Although undersized, Kamara is relentless and has disruptive potential as a subpackage rusher.

135. San Francisco 49ers: Luke McCaffrey, WR, Rice

The McCaffrey brothers playing together in San Francisco would be a great story, obviously. But Luke is a promising pass catcher with the toughness and ball skills that will stand out for Kyle Shanahan’s offense.

Thoughts on a few Round 5 picks:

136. Denver Broncos (from CAR): Decamerion Richardson, CB, Mississippi State

A lot of teams are doing extra homework on Richardson, who has a unique blend of size (6-2 with 32 3/8-inch arms) and speed (4.34-second 40-yard dash). He graded really well as a run defender, but his inability to find the football in coverage was a red flag on his tape.

157. Minnesota Vikings (from CLE): Qwan’tez Stiggers, CB, CFL

The first non-combine prospect drafted here is Stiggers, a CFL product who has had a Hollywood-worthy journey to this point. But he is more than a feel-good story — Stiggers has the talent to work his way up an NFL depth chart.

168. New Orleans Saints: Dylan Laube, RB, New Hampshire

The Saints love running backs who add value as pass catchers, and that is the bread and butter for Laube. He could moonlight as a slot receiver, if needed.

174. Dallas Cowboys: Matt Lee, C, Miami

If the Cowboys had to play a game tomorrow, the coaches would be comfortable starting Brock Hoffman at center. But they will address the position at some point in the draft. With his anchor and quickness, Lee is terrific value in the late fifth.

Thoughts on a few Round 6 picks:

187. Atlanta Falcons: Rasheen Ali, RB, Marshall

The Falcons have a terrific one-two backfield combination in Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier. But Ali would be an outstanding addition because of his big-play potential when given space to operate.

193. New England Patriots (from JAX): Bub Means, WR, Pitt

It wouldn’t be surprising to see the Patriots draft multiple receivers, and Means is an impressive size/speed athlete with a ball-winning attitude. One of the reasons Means transferred to Pitt was his familiarity with former wide receivers coach Tiquan Underwood, who was recently hired by the Patriots. It’d be a fun story if they were reunited.

205. Detroit Lions: Sione Vaki, S, Utah

If there is a player in this draft who has bitten a knee cap, Vaki is that guy, so there is no mystery why the Lions have shown considerable interest in the versatile safety (and running back) from Utah.

214. Cincinnati Bengals: Giovanni Manu, OT, British Columbia (Can.)

At 6-7, 352 with 5.06 speed, Manu is a mammoth player with freaky ability and a basketball background. He is a project and will require development time, but he will be drafted by a team that doesn’t want to worry about bidding for him in free agency.

Thoughts on a few Round 7 picks:

229. Las Vegas Raiders (from MIN): Evan Anderson, DT, FAU

This is not a strong year for nose tackles, which could help a player like Anderson hear his name called on draft weekend. He has the skill set and play personality to muddy gaps as a rotational nose for the Raiders.

231. New England Patriots (from CHI): Mark Perry, S, TCU

Another non-combine invite, Perry is an outstanding size/speed athlete (6-0 and 213 pounds with 4.40 speed). It won’t be a surprise if Wolf takes a chance on his explosive athleticism later in the draft.

234. Indianapolis Colts: Tylan Grable, OT, UCF

General manager Chris Ballard and the Colts value raw athleticism at offensive tackle and Grable, with his 4.95 40 and 36.5-inch vertical at 6-6, 306, certainly fits. The former tight end has yet to play his best football.

248. Buffalo Bills: Kimani Vidal, RB, Troy

It would be a surprise if the Bills don’t address running back in some way on draft weekend — probably before this pick. But Vidal is excellent value this late in the draft and could be a capable backup behind James Cook.
