It’s never too early to start looking at the next crop of prospects for the NFL draft - I’ve been on 2024 since mid-April. I’ll be releasing the notes I’ve taken so far on a few prospects - starting with the quarterbacks and releasing a different position group each week. This week we look at the receiver class.
These are not complete scouting reports but some observations I’ve made so far. Enjoy

+ Positives and strengths
- Negatives or needs work
? Questions I still have, things I haven’t seen on tape yet

Marvin Harrison Jr., Ohio State, 6’4, 205
+ Brian Hartline says he’s the best receiver he has had at Ohio State (Olave, Wilson, JSN)
+ Taller than most NFL prospects at 6’4”
+ Huge catch radius
+ Goes over the top and high than defenders
+ NFL pedigree

- Doesn’t have elite speed, but fast for a 6’4 receiver
- Doesn’t do much after the catch as a runner

? Top speed, 40 time

Receptions: 77
Receiving Yards: 1263
Receiving Touchdowns: 14

Comp: Davante Adams
