Way too early 2024 mock draft

Re: Way too early 2024 mock draft

I don't think we will draft a DE because the front office just signed off on unnecessary early extensions for both Jordan and Granderson who both underachieved. Also Foskey in the 2nd round and Turner appear to be busts. So drafting DE in the 1st round would draw attention to their mistakes. They would rather talk up the potential of the guys they have. If they absolutely had to draft a DE they would move Granderson or Jordan to DT as a PR thing.

Drafting a Tackle would be safer for the front office since we don't have an expensive player at LT and our RT is facing career threatening injuries they can blame on bad luck even though it was forseeable.

I am against drafting TE in the early first round because only one in the history of the NFL has ever been a difference maker for the cost, Tony Gonzalez. Most sure thing cant miss 1st round TE are busts. But the front office is dumb and may do it.

QB will probably not be drafted in the 1st for the same reason as DE, it draws attention to Carr's dumb contract.
