Draft Kings

The 2024 NFL Draft will begin on Thursday, April 25 in Detroit, Michigan. The latest class of college prospects will learn their initial NFL fates as they are drafted into the league. The first round usually is the focal point for fans as players are expected to have an instant impact. Still, there is plenty of talent and production that can come in the second round as well. With that in mind, below, we are going to take a look at the top 50 prospects. This is not a mock draft and players are not listed in the order that we predict they will be drafted. These rankings are purely based on talent and performance in college and are not affected by potential team fit. The rankings were completed ahead of the NFL Combine, so drill results could result in some player’s rise and fall ahead of the Draft. You know we have reached draft season when reports keep rolling out about how quarterbacks not expected to be considered in the first two rounds are now expected to be top picks. It feels reminiscent of the 2022 draft class, where five quarterbacks were mocked in the first round, and only one (Kenny Pickett) went in the first two rounds, and his career so far has called into question whether that should have even happened. All of that to say, I’m not overthinking it, and Caleb Williams, out of USC, is the top player in the 2024 draft class.
