2024 NFL Mock Draft: Caleb Williams, Jayden Daniels go 1-2, Jets get top playmaker, Colts land top corner
By John Blair
2024 NFL Draft Picks 21-24
21. Miami Dolphins: Troy Fautanu, Washington
In an ideal situation, the Miami Dolphins would be able to trade down to the later part of the first round and pick up either a third or fourth-round pick. However, if they remain at this spot look for them to address their offensive line. Troy Fautanu is an athletic offensive guard who consistently fights through the whistle.
22. Philadelphia Eagles: Cooper DeJean, CB, Iowa
The Eagles looked like an old worn out team at the end of the year, and this was especially true in the secondary. Cornerback James Bradberry has been a big disappointment since coming over from the New York Giants, and at the other corner spot, Darius Slay is 33 years old and is coming off an injury. Iowa’s Cooper DeJean has some of the best ball skills in the 2024 NFL Draft, and could play either corner or safety in the NFL.
Texans select another offensive weapon for C.J. Stroud
23. Houston Texans: Adonai Mitchell, WR, Texas
C.J. Stoud looked outstanding as a rookie, and the Texans need to give him as many weapons as possible. Adonai Mitchell is one of the more polished players in this class and is an excellent route runner.
24. Dallas Cowboys: Amarius Mims, OT, Georgia
The Cowboys could lose Tyron Smith in free agency, and if he returns next season he will be 33. The team may move Tyler Smith to tackle, but that will then create a hole at offensive guard. Amarius Mims is a massive offensive lineman coming in at 6-foot-7 and 340, and he shows surprising athletic ability for someone that size.
