2024 NFL Draft Big Board: Generational talents lead final draft big board plus rankings by position
By John Blair
As we wrap up the 2024 NFL Draft cycle it’s time to give our final rankings of the season. The top two players in the NFL Draft are both franchise caliber players in USC quarterback Caleb Williams, and Marvin Harrison Jr. We also see plenty of talent in this year’s NFL Draft as 26 players carry first-round grades.
While teams should be able to find impact players in the 2024 NFL Draft they may have trouble finding good value on day three of the NFL Draft. Only 216 players carry draftable grades on my board compared to the 240 players that were on my final draft board last year.
In this article, we start off with our big board which ranks all players on our board. We then get into our position rankings, and discuss one prospect from each Power Five conference and one Group of Five player to watch during the three-day NFL Draft event. Please note the round in parentese is the draft grade I give them, not where I project them to go.
