Windy City Gridiron

It’s finally Draft Day! After months of speculation, analysis, heated debates, and mock drafts galore, the 2024 NFL Draft officially opens tonight. The first overall pick seems to be set in stone, but the unpredictability of picks No. 2-32 are what should make Thursday’s selections incredibly fun to monitor. The Chicago Bears, of course, have the luxury of knowing everybody that will be available with the No. 1 pick. All signs point to them selecting USC quarterback Caleb Williams, ushering in a new era in Chicago’s historic franchise. They also currently possess the No. 9 pick in the first round, giving them a rare chance to make two top-10 picks. Though they are only slated to have two more selections after Thursday — picks No. 75 and No. 122 — there’s no telling how many they’ll end up with when it’s all said and done.
