The 2024 NFL Draft is just around the corner, and while there seems to be consensus regarding the No. 1 pick, everything gets a little cloudy after that.
Caleb Williams is penciled as the first-overall selection, with Jayden Daniels and Drake Maye likely going No. 2 and No. 3, and some think J.J. McCarthy could climb to No. 4 or No. 5.
With that in mind, scouts and executives continue to do their due diligence on everybody else.
That’s why, as reported by Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated, we still need to keep an eye on three key pro days.
Pro Days are in the books, with the exception of a few makeups with guys who were nicked up. The big ones upcoming …
• Iowa, April 8 (today): CB Cooper DeJean.
• Georgia, April 10: TE Brock Bowers, OT Amarius Mims.
• Illinois, April 16: DT Johnny Newton.— Albert Breer (@AlbertBreer) April 8, 2024
CB Cooper DeJean will work out later on Monday during Iowa’s Pro Day, followed by TE Brock Bowers and OT Amarius Mims on Georgia’s Pro Day on April 10, and DT Johnny Newton on Illnois’ Pro Day on April 16.
While scouts still have plenty of footage and information about these prospects, Pro Days could make or break a player’s draft stock.
We’ve seen countless players climb their way up the ladder after an impressive Pro Day, and multiple top-notch players are deciding to opt out of the NFL Scouting Combine and work out at the Pro Day instead, as they feel more comfortable in a familiar environment and working out with familiar faces.
There’s never something certain about the NFL Draft.
Being a top-10 pick doesn’t mean anything if the player doesn’t put in the work, gets hurt, or isn’t put in a position to succeed.
That’s why these days are so crucial, as the true way to succeed in this is by finding value where others don’t.
