2024 NFL Draft Final Big Board: Malik Nabers as WR1, 6 CBs in the top 32, Chop Robinson holds EDGE1 and more

I have submitted my final project of the 2024 NFL Draft, and you can read a large portion of it below. After evaluating the entire draft class, these are my top 280 prospects this year. Why 280? That’s as many prospects as I had time to watch, evaluate, and grade during this draft cycle.

T2. Offensive tackle
T2. Edge rusher
T5 Cornerback
T5. Interior offensive line
T5. Interior defensive line
T8. Safety
T8. Linebacker
T10. Tight end
11. Running back
