The Michigan Wolverines have won the College Football Playoff national championship, signaling an end to the college football season and shifting the focus of the nation’s elite prospects to the 2024 NFL Draft. The NFL Draft is scheduled to begin on April 25 and there will be plenty of discussion leading up to draft night. The Chicago Bears own the top pick once again after last year’s trade with the Carolina Panthers. Will they take a quarterback with the top pick this time or trade back again and continue to build around Justin Fields? The Bears’ decision will shake up how the draft plays out. There will be plenty more to debate leading up to draft night. Which quarterback will be the first off the board? If the Bears do trade back, who moves up? What team lands Marvin Harrison Jr.? We will not be incorporating trades in these mocks. Free agency is sure to change team needs, but we are going to assume that Fields is gone in this mock draft.
