Inside the War Room released our initial list of 2024 NFL Draft prospects right after the 2023 NFL Draft. On this list, we have over 500 players. This summer we have had a chance to study those players more closely, and have greatly reduced the amount of players on our board.

This group is led by Caleb Williams who is the odds-on favorite to be the number one pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. He is followed by Marvin Harrison and Drake Maye who will likely be top-five picks next April if they have another strong season. A player who ranks in my top 20 that most draftniks don’t see that high is Baylor’s Gabe Hall.

Please note the round behind each player’s name is the draft grade I give them.
