2024 NFL Draft predictions for Olumuyiwa Fashanu, Taliese Fuaga, and Troy Fautanu. What round will Fashanu, Fuaga, and Fautanu be drafted in, and which NFL teams will draft them? Read their 2024 NFL Draft outlooks.
Olumuyiwa Fashanu NFL Draft Prediction
ROUND PREDICTION: First Round (No. 10 Overall Pick)
TEAM PREDICTION: New York Jets
DRAFT ANALYSIS: The Jets, catching a giant wave of excitement with Aaron Rodgers steering the ship, smacked into a stormy sea right out of the gate with Rodgers' season torpedoed by a gut-wrenching Achilles injury in Week 1. Now, the Jets are pot-committed to Rodgers, shackled to a hefty load of guaranteed cash stretching to 2025. Their game plan? Beef up the O-line into an impenetrable fortress, hoping Rodgers can tap into his MVP magic once more. Rodgers isn’t even flirting with retirement, so the Jets are all in at this point and there's no turning back.

Enter Fashanu, the unsung hero who's yet to surrender a sack in college, per PFF's tally. With the draft’s QB and WR frenzy, he slides right into the Jets' lap – a hidden gem to shore up their shaky line. The Jets are going all-in, playing their poker hand with Rodgers till the last card is dealt. While they've shored up their offensive line this offseason, they need additional pieces for the future and Fashanu is exactly that. Instead of worrying about where he fits, we're seeing a lot of teams just putting their best five offensive linemen out there and figuring it out later.
Taliese Fuaga NFL Draft Prediction
ROUND PREDICTION: First Round (No. 14 Overall Pick)
TEAM PREDICTION: New Orleans Saints
DRAFT ANALYSIS: Head Coach Dennis Allen sadly announced that RT Ryan Ramczyk could miss the entire 2024 season and the Saints continue to walk the financial high wire with the salary cap. GM Mickey Loomis is like the Harry Houdini of cap space, pulling off yearly budgetary magic tricks to get the Saints' books to play nice. One has to wonder, what's the hidden price tag of this cap contortionism? Despite the fiscal gymnastics, the Saints are betting big, locking arms with QB Derek Carr and handing coach Dennis Allen the reins for another year.
Enter Fuaga, the O-line Swiss Army knife, technically polished and versatile enough to slot in at guard or tackle. With left tackle Trevor Penning not quite hitting first-round expectations, he might be shuffled inside to guard, paving the way for Fuaga to step up and fortify the Saints' front.
Troy Fautanu NFL Draft Prediction
ROUND PREDICTION: First Round (No. 16 Overall Pick)
TEAM PREDICTION: Seattle Seahawks
DRAFT ANALYSIS: Another talented offensive lineman in a star-studded class, the Seahawks are doing cartwheels of joy to snag him at this spot. With no screaming needs and the cream of the QB crop already picked, Seattle plays it cool, scooping up the best player on their board.
Did Troy Fautanu just do a spin move on the o-line? 🤔

Hailing from Washington, Fautanu's college days were nothing short of stellar, crowned as the top offensive lineman in the Pac-12 by those who know best—his fellow trench warriors. Plus, the guy's got the chops to slide inside and dominate at guard, adding that spicy versatility to the Seahawks offense.
