Lance Zierlein NFL Mock Draft: Malik Nabers Projected WR1 over Marvin Harrison Jr.
There may not be a consensus top wide receiver in the 2024 NFL draft class after all.
In his latest mock draft, NFL.com's Lance Zierlein had LSU wide receiver Malik Nabers heading to the Arizona Cardinals with the No. 4 overall selection while former Ohio State wideout Marvin Harrison Jr. went to the Los Angeles Chargers with the very next pick.
While Harrison Jr. appeared to be the top receiver on the board throughout much of the draft process, that might not be the case.

Final Consensus NFL Mock Draft 📝
Zierlein noted that "stacking the top receivers will be more complicated, with a lack of consensus on the order, if my discussions with team sources tell me anything."
Both Nabers and Harrison Jr. wrapped up tremendous seasons in 2023. The LSU receiver thrived as Heisman Trophy-winner Jayden Daniels' top option, hauling in 89 receptions for 1,569 yards and 14 touchdowns.
Despite opting out of the Buckeyes' Cotton Bowl appearance, Harrison Jr. still racked up 67 catches for 1,211 yards in 12 games. He found the end zone 14 times as well, taking home the Biletnikoff Award as the nation's top receiver.
The two decided not to run or test at the scouting combine with receivers on Saturday, although it likely won't affect their draft stock as they're widely recognized as two of the top players in the 2024 class.
Bleacher Report's NFL Scouting Department has Harrison Jr. ranked as the No. 1 wide receiver on the latest big board, although Nabers is right behind him at No. 2. They're also ranked No. 1 and No. 7 among all prospects, respectively.
B/R NFL Scout Derrik Klassen was impressed with Nabers' speed and ability to make plays with the ball in his hands when evaluating the 20-year-old.
"Overall, it's easy to see how Nabers could make an instant impact in the NFL," Klassen wrote. "His combination of speed, quickness and yards-after-the-catch skills will translate into explosive plays right away."
Harrison Jr. and Nabers appear to have separated themselves from the rest of the wide receiver pack, although there may not be a clear-cut top wideout on the draft boards of NFL teams.
