The 2024 NFL draft is right around the corner, and with the first week of free agency officially in the books, we’ve got a much better idea of what each team needs in the early rounds.
While some clubs have been able to fill the biggest holes on their roster with veterans in free agency, others could be left reaching with their top picks in this year’s draft after whiffing on the best targets on the open market.
We’ve also seen some big trades that will also have a significant impact on the early going on draft weekend.
