2024 NFL Mock Draft: Commanders take Drake Maye at No. 2; Vikings, Steelers trade up into first round

The offseason is rolling along as free agency is largely complete and the 2024 NFL Draft is just five weeks away. The top of the draft is coming into focus with teams that have a clear need at the quarterback position.

Without further ado, let’s kick this off!
