The 2024 NFL Draft is now just hours away and I'm sure you've read your fair share of mock drafts at this point. If you're anything like me, that means you wake up and consume a mock with your morning coffee and then again at lunch. So I wanted to try a different kind of mock draft with a unique spin to it. We'll do a first-round mock but with a Fantasy Football focus, which means a breakdown of how every pick impacts each prospect and team from a Fantasy standpoint both in the short term for your 2024 season-long drafts and a long-term with a focus on Dynasty and keeper leagues. With top wide receivers in the NFL garnering massive contracts nearing quarterback numbers and requiring massive capital to acquire in a trade, it's more important now than ever to draft one locked into a five-year rookie contract. And I think we'll see that reflected in this year's first round especially because it's a loaded class at wide receiver and quarterback. No running backs in my first-round mock as we're trying to keep this thing realistic -- in this class, it's highly unlikely we'll see a back come off the board on Day 1. No worries though as we have the rest of the positions covered.
