It's time to submit the final answers to the test. The 2024 NFL Draft should be a wild ride. The quarterbacks at the top add an intriguing layer to this year's event, and groupthink inside the top 10-12 is stronger than ever. That's never a good thing. I also agree with the sentiment that NFL teams and employees are more cognizant of the betting environment these days, and leaks are increasingly frowned upon. I did get a bit spicier than usual here, with multiple trades. I'm usually opposed to doing this in a mock draft, but this feels like a trade-heavy year. This is an increasing trend, with a record-setting 43 trades made during the three-day draft window in 2023, including six trades made while on the clock in Round 1. Leading up to the NFL Draft, I comb through as much information as possible, focusing on a handful of reputable sources, while also understanding front-office draft tendencies and positional needs to try and figure out where players will land.
