We are under a week away from the 2024 NFL Draft, and the energy is palpable… Or at least it is for draft nerds like myself. After altering my rankings a few hundred times, I am finally comfortable locking in my positional rankings. These rankings are a culmination of days upon days of film watching and comparative analysis. I’ll be sharing my rankings for all the positions that I deem as needs going into the 2024 season (Pretty much everything but EDGE and LB). I will start with the most exciting position group in the draft. This WR class is jam-packed with talent who could end up making an impact in the NFL, and do it early. I have 19 prospects with a 2nd round grade or higher. That is an insane amount! This is only a top 10, but rest assured, there are many guys who won’t make the cut that will be very good options.

Top Strength: An exceptional route runner that is sudden out of breaks
Top Weakness: Can work on his release repertoire in press coverage
[2] Rome Odunze, Washington – (Projected Round – Top 10)
Top Strength: Has incredible size/speed/separation skills
Top Weakness: Doesn’t have top end long speed
