2024 NFL MOCK DRAFT - 10/31/23

 In college football we are down to 5 undefeated teams at the top of the rankings. Meanwhile in the NFL QB's are sadly dropping like flies , and the Panthers got their first win.  Some teams who have disappointing records right now will get heathier , and end up in the playoffs , but others that are playing well now will have key injuries that sabotage them in the standings. Plus the traded deadline is tomorrow , and that can have large ramifications as well . So far it looks like a higher quality of players than 2023 as a whole , but unless the plethora of QB's are hits , it's another draft that only has a few blue chip players at the top. Also , most of the talent that should end up in the top 5 & probably the top 10 is on the offensive side of the ball. I have watched all of these players actually play many times  , but that is not the same as breaking down the film on them, and as of now I have currently broken down the film on one game for 200 players.  Although I am also now up to 86 players that I have evaluated for least 3 games , but there is still so much more tape to watch. Throw in the guys who are draft eligible sophomores that I don't expect to even contemplate going Pro so early, or that haven't played much yet and aren't on my radar right now, and you get the picture. Then chime in with the fact we have little idea what teams will need at that time because of injuries, free agency, retirements , trades , the cap, and who knows what else could happen ? Plus the transfer portal & NIL money has drastically changed the face of college football. These days unless you are guaranteed to be a top 100 pick you might want to take the NIL money , stay in school , and try to improve your draft stock. I already have 28 QB's on my watch list , and that number could still grow , but there is still a long way to go. Soooooo many guys disappoint, go back to school, get injuries, get in trouble , and others come out of the woodwork.  Basically we are all still a long way from potentially decoding this draft at right now.  Guessing the draft order has gotten somewhat clearer , but until the Superbowl ends & any potential coin flips happen it's still not set in stone. Don't lose your minds if your team is picking high here, because the NFL season isn't over, and this is almost as big of a prediction as the actual players right now. This is NOT a rankings list of my top 32, but just my guess at how the draft will go at this time. The picks are all mine, and so is the order if you want to be mad at someone. In addition to it looking like a better draft overall than 2023 there some positions that have stuck out so far. Right now WR , QB , OT , CB , DT , and strangely enough safety & guard look potentially deep at the moment. While edge rusher , RB , and even center have some depth , but no one has clearly risen to the top of those positions. Plus unlike last years predominantly undersized WR class there is a lot of bigger wideouts potentially available in the 2024 draft. I still expect a QB to go #1  , although it could be through a trade , because at this point the pick could go to any of the 6 teams I currently have picking in the top 7.  I am putting a QB at #1 either way. So a lot of trades will probably happen, but I don't put trades in mocks until it's draft season again. Without further ado here it is. Agreeing or disagreeing is welcome, but please do it intelligently & respectfully or I just won't post your comment. So here it is. Enjoy.
