Here’s how to watch a 2024 NFL Draft live stream, with the Chicago Bears getting first pick of the 2024 crop. See dates, start times, prospects, TV channels and more here.
It’s only been two-and-a-half-months since the Kansas City Chiefs overcame the San Francisco 49ers in a modern classic of a Super Bowl, but to NFL devotees it feels like an eternity. Thankfully, this year’s NFL Draft takes place this week to give fans a small taste of the gridiron, as the 32 teams get to bolster their rosters ahead of the regular season which starts on September 5. Read on as we explain how to get a 2024 NFL Draft live stream online no matter where you are in the world – and for free.
This season’s Annual Player Selection Meeting (to give it its official name) takes place over three days in Detroit, and it’s the Chicago Bears who’ll make the first pick this time around. Any eagle-eyed fans wondering why the Carolina Panthers don’t have that dubious honor after their horrible 2-15 record in 2023? Their wretched luck continues, having given the Bears their Round 1 pick as part of the trade that saw DJ Moore leave the franchise.
Although wide receiver Malik Nabers is the top-rated rookie heading into Round 1 on Thursday, it’s widely expected that former Heisman Trophy winner Caleb Williams will be the man heading to Soldier Field with the Bears looking to bring a generational QB into their ranks.
The list of hottest prospects (you can see the top 20 at the bottom of this article), is top loaded with wide receivers. 6’3″ Ohio State product Marvin Harrison Jr has been breaking records since his freshman year, while Rome Odunze’s 1,428 receiving yards and 14 touchdowns helped the Washington Huskies to a 14-0 season and National Championship game.
Teams looking for a tight end who can really handle the football will be eager to seek out the services of Brock Bowers. And Alabama trio Dallas Turner, JC Latham and Terrion Arnold are also likely to be picked up on Thursday.
The 2024 NFL season starts here, so make sure that you don’t miss a pick. Whichever franchise you root for, follow our guide on how to watch an NFL Draft 2024 live stream wherever you are on the planet.NFL Draft 2024 schedule
