The Athletic's Ben Standig is here for the Standig Room Only 2024 NFL first-round mock draft. Ben, Evan Silva (Establish The Run), and Danny Heifitz (The Ringer) alternate all 32 selections while sharing how they see each pick. There are conversations about the Commanders at 2, Drake Maye, whether Michael Penix goes in the first round, GM Aaron Rodgers, offensive tackles, and more.

Trades were in play. One happened. No, not with two even before Commanders GM Adam Peters said on Thursday that Washington would use the No. 2 pick. Ben opens the show with thoughts from the press conference as Peters and assistant GM Lance Newmark talked about next week's draft and more.
