Mel Kiper 2024 NFL Draft Big Board: Top 10 Rankings for Each Position Post-Super Bowl

Tyler ConwayFeb 18, 2024

The Super Bowl is finally over, which only means one thing in the NFL world: draft season is upon us.

The NFL Scouting Combine kicks off next week in Indianapolis, and along with it comes an overload of draft analysis, rankings and mock drafts.

ESPN's Mel Kiper Jr., the originator of the mock draft game, kicked off his draft season Sunday with an update of his overall big board. There weren't any real noteworthy changes—USC's Caleb Williams remains the draft's top player, and the top 18 selections were all the same from his previous rankings—but there is now a more in-depth look at Kiper's overall thoughts on each position.

Kiper has Williams as his top-ranked quarterback, with LSU's Jayden Daniels sitting ahead of North Carolina's Drake Maye among the expected elite players at the position. Ohio State's Marvin Harrison Jr., Washington's Rome Odunze, and LSU's Malik Nabers lead a loaded wide receiver class that boasts four players in Kiper's top 11.

Georgia tight end Brock Bowers, Notre Dame offensive tackle Joe Alt, Penn State offensive tackle Olu Fashanu also appear high on Kiper's board in a class that's heavy on offense. The first defensive player, Alabama linebacker Dallas Turner, does not appear until No. 10 overall.
