The college football season is finished, with Michigan beating Washington to claim its first national championship since 1997. While those playoffs are just ending, the NFL playoffs are just around the corner.

While 14 teams work to make Super Bowl 58 in Las Vegas, the rest of the league looks forward to the Senior Bowl, Scouting Combine, and other critical events in the pre-draft process to determine which future pro prospects pique their interest.

Before those all-star evaluations go into swing, here are Sporting News’ latest rankings for the top 100 players set to be in the 2024 NFL Draft class:

MOCK DRAFT 2024: Bears, Cardinals opt for top WRs; Falcons, Vikings join QB run

NFL Draft prospects 2024: Big board of top 100 players

1. Marvin Harrison Jr., WR, Ohio State (6-3, 202 pounds)

Harrison has the size and speed of a classic perimeter No. 1 outside receiver with even more physical upside than his Hall of Fame father. He has a strong case to go ahead of Caleb Williams given the Bears are set to pick first.

2. Caleb Williams, QB, USC (6-1, 218 pounds)

The 2022 Heisman winner is the latest Lincoln Riley dual-threat dynamo with his big arm and mobility, doing whatever it takes with his moxie and toughness to make plays. He’s the clear-cut franchise QB option from this class despite an emotional, disappointing overall season with the Trojans.

3. Drake Maye, QB, North Carolina (6-5, 220 pounds)

Maye has a nice combination of accuracy and athleticism reminiscent of new Commanders starter Sam Howell, another former Tar Heel. Maye is a much better passer with a more ideal frame to handle pressure at a higher level.

4. Brock Bowers, TE, Georgia (6-4, 240 pounds)

Bowers is an explosive athlete in a powerful frame and has the look of the next great NFL tight end, emerging from a strong offense that showcased his mismatch-creating skills.

5. Joe Alt, OT, Notre Dame (6-7, 316 pounds)

Alt has incredibly nimble feet for such a big frame. He uses his body well to move defenders out of his way. He’s a can’t-miss long-term anchor.

6. Malik Nabers, WR, LSU (6-0, 200 pounds)

Nabers is a smooth route-runner with good hands and great quickness after the catch. He’ll keep the pedigree strong from Baton Rouge.

7. Olumuyiwa Fashanu, T, Penn State (6-6, 321 pounds)

Fashanu is working to make sure he is no lower than the second-best tackle in this class with his size, frame, and physical play that are equal assets in pass protection and run blocking.

8. Rome Odunze, WR, Washington (6-3, 201 pounds)

Odunze is looking better with each game as a speedy vertical-threat perimeter receiver. He’s a much better version of Quentin Johnston for this year’s class.

Malik Nabers

9. Dallas Turner, EDGE, Alabama (6-4, 240 pounds)

Turner stepped into the void of Will Anderson Jr. as the premier Crimson Tide pass rusher. He still has the upside to become a more complete defender in the NFL, much like Anderson immediately did with the Texans.

10. Jer’Zhan Newton, DT, Illinois (6-2, 295 pounds)

Newton is a natural run-stopper who can keep developing more pass-rush pop. He is the latest first-round prize from a defensive-minded program.

11. Jayden Daniels, QB, LSU (6-4, 210 pounds)

The reigning Heisman winner exploded as a dual threat with elite athleticism and big-play passing flair. Daniels still needs a little time to improve his zip and accuracy, but his natural skills give him great upside. He can become what Lamar Jackson has in the new Ravens offense.

12. Taliese Fuaga, OT, Oregon State (6-6, 234 pounds)

Fuaga has a great blend of size, power, savvy, smarts, and agility. He just needs to be more consistent with his technique and physicality to maximize that complete blocking package.

13. Nate Wiggins, CB, Clemson (6-2, 185 pounds)

Wiggins is a versatile, big cover corner who could use his size in other areas of his game. He has separated from some other terrific prospects to be the best at this position.

14. Jared Verse, EDGE, Florida State (6-4, 248 pounds)

Verse was a very productive pass rusher before this past college season. He made the smart decision to return to the Seminoles to polish some of his raw all-around skills.

15. Laiatu Latu, EDGE, UCLA (6-5, 265 pounds)

Latu’s explosiveness has stood out more as he made the wise choice to return to school to become a steadier all-around force outside to build even more on his inside pass-rush flash.

16. Amarius Mims, OT, Georgia (6-7, 340 pounds)

Mims is a smooth outside pass protector with big upside in the running game, too.

17. J.C. Latham, OT, Alabama (6-6, 326 pounds)

Latham is also challenging the top tackles in what’s a formidable class for the position. HE has a little Tristan Wirfs pass-protecting and run-blocking upside.

18. Keon Coleman, WR, Florida State (6-4, 215 pounds)

Coleman is a strong technical receiver after the catch and should be a first-round pick after increasing his big-play ability.

19. Cooper DeJean, CB, Iowa (6-1, 209 pounds)

DeJean is a unique physical corner who is just as comfortable away from coverage as he is using his good on-ball instincts.

20. Kool-Aid McKinstry, CB, Alabama (6-1, 195 pounds)

Beyond the awesome name, McKinstry has elite game with the ideal frame to be a shutdown corner who shows huge playmaking skills when tested.

21. Terrion Arnold, CB, Alabama (6-0, 196 pounds)

Arnold is a smooth corner who uses his size well in coverage, and he’s agile enough to make big plays on the ball and also be a reliable asset in run support.

22. Bralen Trice, EDGE, Washington (6-4, 256 pounds)

Trice is a strong, relentless pass-rusher who is working to rise into surefire first-round status.

23. Bo Nix, QB, Oregon (6-2, 217 pounds)

Nix has an intriguing blend of experience, arm talent, and athleticism. He really put everything together well while leading the Ducks offense, causing some to think he has Justin Herbert-like potential.

24. Michael Penix Jr., QB, Washington (6-3, 214 pounds)

Penix delivers the ball downfield with a strong arm and great accuracy, and he can continue to work on making adequate mobility more of an asset in his game

25. J.J. McCarthy, QB, Michigan (6-3, 202 pounds)

McCarthy is a flat-out athletic playmaker who throws well out of the pocket and shows great zip on all of his passes. He just needs to work on blending his arm and accuracy better.

26. Brian Thomas Jr., WR, LSU (6-4, 205 pounds)

Thomas is the classic great-hands, strong route-running receiver who is tough enough to work inside, fight for the ball, and use his physicality well after the catch.

27. Quinyon Mitchell, CB, Toledo (6-0, 196 pounds)

Mitchell has gotten plenty of recent draft attention for flat-out blinding speed to stay with anyone in coverage, boosted by his ideal size.

28. Byron Murphy II, DT, Texas (6-1, 308 pounds)

Murphy packs a major wallop as a more compact interior defensive lineman, but he might need to get a little bigger and stronger to keep up his impactful ways.

29. Jackson Powers-Johnson, G, Oregon (6-6, 320 pounds)

Powers-Johnson, as his last name might indicate, plays with great power and quickness as a top-flight run blocker who can grow in pass protection.

30. Adonai Mitchell, WR, Texas (6-4, 196 pounds)

Mitchell is another speedy intermediate and deep threat who could be great with better hands and routes.

31. Chris Braswell, EDGE, Alabama (6-3, 255 pounds)

33. Ennis Rakestraw Jr., CB, Missouri (6-0, 188 pounds)

34. Troy Fautanu, G, Washington (6-4, 317 pounds)

Fautanu’s calling card is pure physicality, but he’s risen up draft boards by showing high upside with his blocking agility and quickness.

35. Darius Robinson, EDGE, Missouri (6-5, 291 pounds)

Robinson used the Senior Bowl to show he’s an explosive, strong athlete with freakish upside.

36. Leonard Taylor III, DT, Miami (6-3, 305 pounds)

Taylor is NFL-worthy as a run-stopper, but he can tap more into his inside pass rush as well in the right scheme.

Kamari Lassiter

37. Kamari Lassiter, CB, Georgia (6-0, 180 pounds)

Lassiter can get all over the field in coverage with his great quickness, and he also opens and closes with elite physical play.

39. Roman Wilson, WR, Michigan (6-0, 192 pounds)

Wilson is a dynamic big-play threat with the requisite speed and quickness, but he needs to become more consistent overall with his hands and operating after the catch.

Frazier is a quick, strong anchor in the running game who has good room for technique improvement in pass protection.

41. Chop Robinson, EDGE, Penn State (6-3, 250 pounds)

Cooper has become a borderline first-round prospect by showing the necessary speed and quickness to go with his top coverage skills.

Morgan is a dynamic athlete for the position, and he has a natural, agile feel for pass protection.

46. Graham Barton, OT, Duke (6-3, 311 pounds)

Barton, a solid all-around blocking option, especially in the outside running game, can keep growing as an athlete and find improved technique in pass protection.

Brooks is looking like the best option in a weaker running back class because of his dynamic skills as a receiver and open-field, change-of-pace runner.

48. Jonah Ellliss, EDGE, Utah (6-2, 246 pounds)

Elliss has special run-stopping skills for the outside and has a lot of juice when covering laterally. He has untapped potential as a pass-rusher, too.
