2024 NFL Mock Draft: Daniel Jeremiah Chooses Chaos in New 1st-Round Projection

NFL Network's draft expert projects some wild moves in his latest first-round forecast for the 2024 NFL Draft.

If you've been following the NFL Draft for any length of time, you're already well aware of the chaos that can break out on draft night.

NFL Network's Daniel Jeremiah was obviously channeling that idea when he put together his latest 2024 NFL mock draft, which is loaded with wild moves.

After having three quarterbacks come off the board first as expected, Jeremiah has another one in the fourth spot, courtesy of a bold trade-up by the Minnesota Vikings to land Michigan's J.J. McCarthy

At the very next pick, Jeremiah predicts another big trade, sending the New York Jets five spots up the board for wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. out of Ohio State, giving Aaron Rodgers another elite pass-catcher to pair with Garrett Wilson.

After trading down, Jeremiah has the Arizona Cardinals landing Florida State edge defender Jared Verse at No. 11, and LSU wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. at No. 23, while the Los Angeles Chargers take Oregon State offensive tackle Taliese Fuaga after moving down to the No. 10 spot.

Another surprise comes at No. 13, where Jeremiah has the Las Vegas Raiders making Washington's Michael Penix Jr. the fifth first-round quarterback off the board, while Oregon's Bo Nix doesn't make an appearance in this mock draft at all.
