NFL draft quarterback tiers: Scouts and execs stack 11 QBs

For the third time in four years, quarterbacks will dominate the discussion around the NFL draft.

The 2021 and 2023 classes saw passers occupy three of the first four picks, and that could be the case in the 2024 NFL draft beginning April 25 (8 p.m. ET on ESPN, ABC, ESPN App). The teams at the top -- Bears (No. 1), Commanders (No. 2) and Patriots (No. 3) -- are all hoping to channel Houston's success with C.J. Stroud last season, coveting the idea of a brilliant passer under a rookie contract. This is one of the deeper quarterback drafts in recent memory, with at least seven passers angling for Day 1 or Day 2 billing.
