The NFL draft is the Annual Player Selection Meeting, it is where players are officially recruited into the league. In the draft, the last-place team is positioned in reverse order; meaning the last-place team is now first, and the champion of the Super Bowl is last. During the draft, teams have the option of selecting a player or trading with another team for other draft positions. There are several rounds in the draft, and the teams can trade one player or more. The NFL draft has been held every year since 1936 and the 2024 NFL draft is going to be the 89th annual meeting. It will be held April 25-27, 2024, in Michigan.

Draft Analysis: Top Five Teams
Chicago Bears
The Bears obtained this pick via the Carolina Panthers. If you’re anything like us, you are also wondering what the Bears will be doing with their Quarterback Justin Fields. Are the Bears considering trading him for one of the other highly-rated quarterbacks or will they continue forth with Fields?
Washington Commanders
Contracts are expiring and people are wondering what the new owner Josh Harris will be doing with the trade prospects. It appears they may be considering putting up some of their well-vetted players like Defensive end Chase Young for trade.
New England Patriots
The Patriots need a wide receiver however, fans are watching closely to see what they plan to do with their quarterback Mac Jones. My best guess is the Patriots will be keeping an open mind for their quarterback needs this 2024 draft season.
Arizona Cardinals
Let’s just say it, the Cardinals could use a whole new roster and this draft season is the time for them to start putting together a new team. Moreover, we are looking forward to seeing what they do during the first round of picks.
Los Angeles Chargers
To trade or not to trade? The Chargers have a few contracts that will need to be revised due to salary issues. As a result, their 2024 draft season looks like a whole new roster may be an option.
