We enter Day 2 of the NFL Draft with an abundance of players still available who can make a huge fantasy impact this season. Thursday night’s first round started with 14 straight offensive players and ended with three wide receivers in the last five picks. But nine offensive linemen and three cornerbacks among those first 32 picks leaves plenty of fantasy opportunity for the remaining five rounds.
Here are the best remaining players available in the 2024 NFL Draft.
Best Remaining Players in the 2024 NFL Draft
Adonai Mitchell, WR, Texas
The explosive Texas wideout Mitchell ran a 4.34-second 40-yard dash at the combine, making him an elite deep threat in any NFL offense. He brings elite speed, elite burst and a massive catch radius.
Ladd McConkey, WR, Georgia
McConkey stands 6-foot-0 and 186 pounds with 4.39 speed. He excels at creating space at the line of scrimmage and is a superb route-runner. He battled ankle injuries last season, suppressing his draft stock.
Keon Coleman, WR, Florida State
Coleman has fantastic burst but only ran a 4.61 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine. He has prototypical size at 6-foot-3, 213-pounds and led the ACC with 11 touchdown catches.
Jonathon Brooks, RB, Texas
Brooks finally got his chance to shine after sitting behind Bijan Robinson and Roschon Johnson the past two seasons. He responded with 1139 rushing yards, 25 receptions and 11 touchdowns before suffering a torn ACL late in the 2023 season.
Trey Benson, RB, Florida State
Benson blistered a 4.39 at his combine, which is impressive for a 6-foot, 216-pound running back with great hands.
Ja’Lynn Polk, WR, Washington
There is strong smoke about Polk rising across draft boards. He was an elite college producer at Washington with 69 receptions, 1,159 yards and nine touchdowns.
Ja’Tavion Sanders, TE, Texas
Sanders is flying under the radar in the shadow of Brock Bowers. He is 6-foot-4, 245 pounds, giving him the size to break tackles after the catch.
MarShawn Lloyd, RB, USC
Lloyd brings 4.46 speed and averaged 7.1 yards per carry last season for USC. He is an explosive and strong rusher at 5-foot-9, 220 pounds.
Jalen McMillan, WR, Washington
Another great wide receiver prospect from Washington who battled injuries just like McConkey. However, McMillan brings great measurables across the board.
Blake Corum, RB, Michigan
Aside from underwhelming size, Corum brings exceptional agility and strength. It’s hard to ignore 27 rushing touchdowns on the national champions.
Troy Franklin, WR, Oregon
Franklin could be the steal of Day 2, setting Oregon records for receiving yards in a season (1383). He brings 4.41 speed on a 6-foot-2 frame.
