The Athletic

● By Staff
We know, we know: You’ve barely had time to decompress from the 2023 NFL Draft, let alone start worrying about the 2024 draft. But the college football season — and all the prospect watching that comes with it — will be here before you know it. So, let’s turn the page with our first Consensus Big Board of the ’24 draft cycle. As a reminder, The Athletic’s Consensus Big Board combines rankings from a wide range of draft experts to identify how the top prospects are viewed relative to the rest of their class. In theory, by the time we reach draft weekend, these rankings should help give us a handle on how picks could (or, at least, should) play out.
