2024 NFL draft: Latest news, questions for all 32 team picks - ESPN

The 2024 NFL draft is fast approaching, and teams are finalizing their boards. Round 1 begins April 25 in Detroit (8 p.m. ET on ESPN, ABC, ESPN App).

To prepare, we're giving you intel from all angles. We had each of our 32 NFL Nation reporters answer questions about the mindset of the team they cover heading into the draft, then asked analysts Matt Miller and Jordan Reid to give the inside scoop on what they're hearing about each team and which prospects could be fits throughout the draft.

Here's everything our experts know, starting with the team with the first pick of the draft — the Chicago Bears — and going in order of each team's first selection:

Jump to a team:
ARI | ATL | BAL | BUF | CAR | CHI | CIN
CLE | DAL | DEN | DET | GB | HOU | IND
JAX | KC | LAC | LAR | LV | MIA | MIN
NE | NO | NYG | NYJ | PHI | PIT | SF
SEA | TB | TEN | WSH

Top picks: Nos. 1, 9, 75

At No. 9 overall, do you expect Chicago to further support its rookie QB pick or address the defense?

The Bears' personnel staff and coaches have been sectioned into «pods» to debate three positions the team could address at No. 9: wide receiver, offensive tackle and defensive end. The biggest need is finding a pass-rusher to start opposite Montez Sweat, and Chicago could have a bevy of options to choose from even if Atlanta selects a defensive end at No. 8. But if one of the draft's top receivers, such as LSU's Malik Nabers or Washington's Rome Odunze, falls to No. 9, Chicago could nab him to further help its rookie QB. That would position the Bears to sign a veteran pass-rusher after the draft, which they did last year with Yannick Ngakoue. — Courtney Cronin
