Joe Alt
21-Year-Old
First tackle off the board to LAC
The Chargers selected Alt in the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft, fifth overall.
ANALYSIS
Los Angeles had been circled as a possible trade-down candidate, or a team that would be interested in dipping into the wide receiver pool given the team's weakness at that position. However, the new regime led by coach Jim Harbaugh opted to bolster the trenches with Alt. The latest Notre Dame tackle to be selected high in the draft, Alt checks in at a mammoth 6-foot-8 and 321 pounds with 34.25-inch arms. He started for three seasons in South Bend and profiles as a tackle who can do it all, whether it's in pass protection or run blocking. Rashawn Slater was a high draft pick for the Chargers who has been holding down the left tackle spot for years, so Alt may be tasked with learning how to play right tackle.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could be trade-up candidate for Saints
The Athletic's final mock of the 2024 NFL Draft has the Saints trading up to the eighth overall pick to select Alt.
ANALYSIS
The majority of mock drafts have had Alt going to Tennessee, but Larry Holder of The Athletic proposes an alternative scenario for the offensive tackle out of Notre Dame. In an eventful mock draft that saw the Titans trade the seventh pick to Buffalo, New Orleans then traded picks 14 and 45 to move up to eighth overall and snag the consensus top offensive line prospect in the 2024 NFL Draft.
