The pace of the 2024 NFL offseason is brisk as all 32 teams shift their attention to the onset of NFL free agency. Although significant signings and a handful of trades are bound to influence team requirements, we’re presenting one last mock draft for the 2024 NFL season prior to the commencement of free agency. So, let’s explore our most recent 2024 NFL mock draft in anticipation of the upcoming NFL free agency period.
Las Vegas Raiders opt for Jayden Daniels, quarterback from LSU.
In a trade move, the Las Vegas Raiders exchange their 13th and 44th overall picks in addition to their 2025 1st and 3rd round picks to the New England Patriots in return for the 3rd overall pick.
For a team to commit the assets necessary to secure Jayden Daniels, there must be a deep admiration for his skills.
It appears that the Raiders hold a strong affinity for Daniels, actively pursuing trade-up opportunities. With competition from the Minnesota Vikings and Atlanta Falcons also vying for a move up, the New England Patriots stand to gain considerable leverage. This maneuver positions Las Vegas to secure a cornerstone player for their offense, potentially elevating fan excitement at Allegiant Stadium. It’s a move that could invigorate Raider Nation, offering them something to truly rally behind.
