Statistical Scouting: Player Comps for the 2024 NFL Draft Prospects (RB)
The 2024 running back draft class may not have a Bijan Robinson or a Jahmyr Gibbs. But for the savvy fantasy player, the lack of attention and consensus could be beneficial.

The NFC South was probably the least exciting division in football last year, but it’s definitely on the rise. Tampa Bay is coming off an NFC Divisional Round appearance and managed to retain their key free agents.
