2024 Projections
Trade-up target for Minnesota
The Vikings selected Turner in the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft, 17th overall.
ANALYSIS
Minnesota traded up with the Jaguars to get one of the top edge rushers in the class in Turner. An All-American at Alabama, Turner racked up an SEC-leading 11.0 sacks as a true junior in 2023, but he's far from a late bloomer. Turner burst onto the scene as a freshman in 2021 and racked up 8.5 sacks alongside Will Anderson to create a fierce pass-rushing tandem. Athletically, Turner is rather light for an NFL edge at 246 pounds but the athletic tools (4.46 40, 40.5-inch vertical, 34.38-inch arms) are loud. With Danielle Hunter now in Houston, Turner will be relied upon right away to create havoc in the Vikings' front seven.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Slips to 12th in mock draft
Wednesday's final mock draft from The Athletic's final mock of the 2024 NFL Draft was released Wednesday and features Denver selecting Turner with the 12th overall pick.
ANALYSIS
As usual, Turner was the first defensive player drafted in this mock. He has typically gone in the top 10 picks of other mock drafts, but the edge rusher out of Alabama had to wait a little longer in The Athletic's mock before Broncos beat writer Nick Kosmider selected him for Denver. Turner would be a fit for a Broncos team that lacks talent in its front seven after trading Bradley Chubb to Miami in 2022.
