With the First Pick: NFC East goes offense in latest NFL mock, plus sportsbooks weigh in on top of draft

I’m thinking of this time of year as a relay race — the NCAA Tournament just passed the baton to The Masters and then, we’re up, baby! The 2024 NFL Draft will take center stage, literally in Detroit and will become the hub of the sports world for three glorious days in just a few weeks. It’s really not that far away. 

The weather’s starting to turn too — April is low-key one of the finest sports months on the calendar. I feel like it’s underrated like A.J. Brown was as a prospect coming out of Ole Miss in 2019. He had no business going in the second round! Here I go again, rambling about specifics in past drafts. Let’s get to today’s jam-packed newsletter, shall we?

We started last week, but if you’re new here, I got you covered. We’re rebranding the Pick Six newsletter through the end of April. I, CBS Sports NFL Draft analyst Chris Trapasso, will be with you every step of the way. Honored.
