2024 NFL Draft Prospects
3. Malik Nabers (WR – LSU)
Malik Nabers is the energizer bunny for wide receivers in the draft this year. Always on the go, he has great explosiveness and is incredibly gifted after the catch. Whether it be what he does in the short areas of the field or how well he tracks the ball downfield, there’s much to be desired with Nabers’s ability as a pass-catcher. His most underrated asset is the versatility he’ll offer an offense with how he can be motioned anywhere on the field and align anywhere.
9. Rome Odunze (WR – UW)
Put on the tape, and it’s easy to see how Rome Odunze translates to the NFL. Great overall size for the position, with plenty of speed and burst after the catch. He may not always create separation, but he’s physical and wins while contested at the catch point. There’s the ability for him to play inside or outside as a wide receiver, but he seems destined to be an ‘X’ receiver for an NFL offense.
15. Laiatu Latu (EDGE – UCLA)
A neck injury forced Laiatu Latu to medically retire in the 2020 and 2021 seasons at Washington. This led to him getting cleared and ultimately transferring to UCLA. While it seems like he’ll be medically cleared by most teams, there will always be some hesitation from a few. That said, Latu is a fluid pass-rusher with great bend, flexibility and athleticism. He’s got the desired play strength needed to set the edge, but I would like to see him play with less hesitation when barreling down the line against the run. However, there may not be a more fluid pass-rusher in the draft this year that possesses the arsenal of moves that Latu does.
22. Kamari Lassiter (CB – UG)
In today’s game, you need physical defensive backs on the perimeter. There’s none more physical than Kamari Lassiter out of Georgia. He’s able to fly upfield and make his presence known, but he’s also fluid enough to open his hips and run with receivers. Comfortable in zone coverage (cover 3) and as a press-man corner (cover 1), Lassiter has the desired skill set to translate to a starting defender for an NFL defense.
