Pete Prisco 2024 NFL Mock Draft 2.0: Four QBs go in top 5 as Jim Harbaugh trades back, begins Chargers rebuild

There is no doubt as to who they are taking. Caleb Williams is their guy and will be the one who they count on to be their first true franchise quarterback since maybe Sid Luckman.

Jayden Daniels would be a perfect fit in their system under Kliff Kingsbury. He can move, but he’s also a good passer when asked to do so from the pocket.

The Patriots will decide between Drake Maye and J.J. McCarthy in this spot, and I think it will be McCarthy. That’s way too high for him in my eyes, but the word is the Pats really like him.

They need receiver help in the worst way, so they opt for Marvin Harrison Jr., who is a big, strong receiver in the Larry Fitzgerald mold. They take him over Malik Nabers.

They make the move to go up and get their guy in Drake Maye, while the Chargers, who are re-tooling with Jim Harbaugh, get multiple first-round picks.

They have to get a weapon outside who can be dominant, something they haven’t had since the early days of Odell Beckham Jr. Malik Nabers can be that guy — no matter who plays quarterback.

This makes the most sense of any pick in the draft. Joe Alt will be an immediate starter at left tackle and will give Will Levis a backside protector. The line will be much improved if he is the pick.

Their pass rush is a major issue. They have to address it, and I think Dallas Turner would be the right guy. He will be a better player on the next level than he was at Alabama.

They have D.J. Moore and traded for Keenan Allen, but Allen is getting up in the years and Rome Odunze would be a top receiver for a long time for Caleb Williams. Why not add another weapon, even if pass rusher is a possibility here.

They signed Tyron Smith and traded for Morgan Moses, but both are on one-year deals and Taliese Fuaga can play guard to help inside. Injuries happen — and Smith has injury issues at times — so taking a tackle works.

They have corner issues in a division with Patrick Mahomes, even after landing Kristian Fulton in free agency. It’s time to get an upgrade in Quinyon Mitchell, who is the top corner in this draft. They could consider an offensive lineman here as well.

They pass on a quarterback here, although they could trade down and take a quarterback. For this draft, they stay put and add an edge player in Jared Verse.

The Raiders can land a power player for the right side of their line. JC Latham is physical and fits with what they want to do, which is to beat people up.

They need to get a left tackle, and Olu Fashanu is a pure pass protector. He will step in and start right away. You can never go wrong drafting an offensive lineman in a league where there is an issue on a lot of lines.

The Colts can add another weapon for their young quarterback by taking Brock Bowers. He is the best tight end in the class, and Anthony Richardson will come to love him.

They have issues at guard, and Troy Fautanu has the look of a guard to me. He would step in on the left side and play next to Charles Cross, while also being their swing tackle. Plus, right tackle Abraham Lucas has some injury issues.

They need to get a young corner with free-agent signee Ronald Darby being up in the years and Tyson Campbell in the final year of his contract. Terrion Arnold would give them the chance to play more man coverage.

They lost D.J. Reader in free agency, so there is a hole in the middle of their defense. Byron Murphy II is a quick, penetrating player like Justin Madubuike of the Ravens.

They need to get edge-rush help, and Laiatu Latu is a hometown player who can step in and help offset the loss of Aaron Donald inside. Pass rushers are a must, and they need an elite one.

Jackson Powers-Johnson is a special center who can step in and immediately add to the Steelers’ tradition of big-time players in the middle of their line. They could also look at tackle here.

They lost Christian Wilkins to the Raiders in free agency, so why not add to the room with a smallish but quick inside player? They signed some veterans to help, but Johnny Newton can be a long-time starter inside.

They know Lane Johnson won’t be playing forever, so why not take a tackle who can replace him? Amarius Mims had limited starts at Georgia, but he is a massive man with a ton of upside.

They need to get more help outside for Justin Herbert. Brian Thomas Jr. is a long receiver who can fly. So they would add a top corner and receiver from trading down.

They let Tyron Smith walk in free agency, so they need help up front. The Cowboys say they like their young inside backup players, but why move Tyler Smith from guard to tackle when you don’t need to do it?

Corner is a must and Cooper DeJean has the tools to be a good cover player. He could also play safety down the line. DeJean is coming off an injury, but he will be fine for camp.

Center is a problem on their line, so Graham Barton would work. He played tackle in college, but he would move inside. He could also compete at left guard, where they have issues.

Their corner room needs a young player who can push for a starting job as a rookie. They added Sean Murphy-Bunting in free agency, but they need more.

With the trade of Stefon Diggs to the Texans, they need help in a big way at receiver. Adonai Mitchell is a bigger body who can fly. They will love him in Buffalo. By the way, I would draft two receivers in this draft if I were Bills GM Brandon Beane.

They signed Marcus Davenport in free agency, but it’s just a one-year deal. They need to get help opposite Aidan Hutchinson, and Robinson would be that guy.

Ravens offensive coordinator Todd Monken coached Ladd McConkey at Georgia, and he would be a nice addition for Lamar Jackson. McConkey and Zay Flowers would be a nice 1-2 combo for a few years.

Their line has some issues at several spots, which is why Jordan Morgan makes sense. He played left tackle in college, but scouts see him inside or even at right tackle. They could also go defensive line here.

They could go receiver here — maybe Xavier Worthy — or a tackle, but with the run on tackles, I have them taking a cover corner to help replace L’Jarius Sneed.
