How to watch 2024 NFL Draft: Live stream, First Round time, channel, draft order and more

The 2024 NFL draft gets underway Thursday night, and Ohio State wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. is expected to be the first Buckeye taken this year.

That's no mystery. What is a mystery and what will cause the most chaos is what happens with involving the draft's highly regarded quarterbacks.

USC product Caleb Williams is expected to go No. 1 overall to the Chicago Bears. After that, it's up for grabs.

Any order of Michigan's J.J. McCarthy, UNC's Drake Maye and LSU's Jayden Daniels could follow in the top five, with quarterback-needy teams making two of those picks; the Commanders (No. 2) and Patriots (No. 3) are in prime spots to select a passer.

That said, the draft starts at 8 p.m. ET, but it might not actually start until pick No. 4. All eyes will be on Arizona, which holds the fourth selection. The Cardinals are seemingly set at quarterback with Kyler Murray locked in a long-term deal. That makes Arizona a prime trade-down candidate tonight.

Here's how you can watch the anarchy unfold:
