Every year, we look at a class of prospects and struggle to contextualize the significance of one class against another. Yet again, I’ve taken a shot at doing just that. To rank the top prospects per position of the 2024 class against the top prospects of the All-22 era, which is now 2020 - 2024. In an attempt to keep things even, I’ve based my rankings on the data at hand, on post-combine and pre-draft information. In short, these rankings are primarily based on college film and production, combine workouts, and pre-draft news. These rankings exclude the round the prospect was drafted, and which team drafted them. Situation will always play an important role in final rankings which is why I am choosing to exclude that information since the data for the 2024 class is not yet available. As a bonus, if you see an “e” next to a player’s name that means I think of them as elite— in a class of their own.
