2024 NFL mock draft: With combine looming, QBs go 1-2-3 and Michigan’s J.J. McCarthy goes to the Shanahan tree

The Patriots are the pivot point of this draft, as they could go with their (new) quarterback of the future or one of the premium talents at a premium position like Marvin Harrison Jr. or one of the talented offensive tackles.

Harrison is arguably the best player in the draft and fills a position of need for the Cardinals. Harrison lucks out by landing with a team that already has its quarterback in place with Kyler Murray.

Jim Harbaugh is going to build through the trenches and nabs Fashanu, the talented tackle from the Big Ten. Fashanu already shows advanced eyes and awareness as a player, which is the cherry on top to his incredible package of size, length and foot…
