Giant's 2024 NFL Draft: A Three-Round Mock Projection
Chad Reuter's Three-Round Mock Draft
In his first mock draft for the 2024 NFL Draft, Chad Reuter of NFL.com projects that the New York Giants will trade up to select a quarterback in the first round. Reuter has the Giants moving up to the No. 10 overall pick to select C.J. Stroud from Ohio State.
Stroud is considered one of the top quarterback prospects in the 2024 NFL Draft. He is a 6-foot-3, 215-pound quarterback with a strong arm and good accuracy. Stroud is also a good athlete and can extend plays with his legs.
The Giants have a need at quarterback after Daniel Jones struggled in 2022. Jones threw for 3,205 yards, 15 touchdowns, and five interceptions in 13 games. He also rushed for 708 yards and seven touchdowns.
If the Giants do trade up to select Stroud, it would be a significant investment in the future of the franchise. Stroud is a talented quarterback with the potential to be a franchise-changer. However, he is still raw and will need time to develop.
In addition to Stroud, Reuter also has the Giants selecting two other players in the first three rounds of the 2024 NFL Draft. Reuter has the Giants selecting cornerback Devon Witherspoon from Illinois in the second round and offensive tackle Blake Freeland from BYU in the third round.
Witherspoon is a 6-foot-1, 180-pound cornerback with good size and athleticism. He is a physical corner who is not afraid to tackle. Witherspoon is also a good ball-hawk and has a knack for making interceptions.
Freeland is a 6-foot-8, 305-pound offensive tackle with good size and strength. He is a mauler in the run game and can also pass protect well. Freeland is a good athlete and has the potential to be a starting left tackle in the NFL.
The Giants have a lot of needs to address in the 2024 NFL Draft. They need to add depth to their defense and offensive line. They also need to find a long-term solution at quarterback.
If the Giants can land Stroud, Witherspoon, and Freeland in the first three rounds of the 2024 NFL Draft, it would be a great start to their rebuilding process.
