The NFL Draft is rapidly approaching, and this year’s class is supposedly loaded with excellent prospects.
Several positions are said to be more loaded than others, including the group of wide receivers.
Marvin Harrison Jr. has been touted as a cut above the rest, but the tier below him has some potential superstars.
One of them is Malik Nabers, who, according to Greg Cosell, “Would be my #2 overall prospect of this draft class,” saying he is reminded of “Deebo with the ball in his hands.”

Deebo Samuel has been viewed as one of the NFL’s most dynamic playmakers in the NFL for several years.
If Cosell predicts that Nabers has a prospect profile similar to Samuel’s, it could speak wonders about his potential impact in the NFL.
Nabers is currently projected to be a first-round pick, with some mock drafts indicating he could be in the top ten.
Teams around the league have been conservative with free-agent wide receivers, a potential sign that they are looking to the draft to find their answers at the position.
Players like Harrison Jr. and Nabers could help, but other receivers will be taken in the second and third rounds, and potentially later, that could be valuable pieces to NFL franchises.
The draft is rapidly approaching, giving teams just a few weeks to figure out who they will take to help their team get to the next level in 2024 and beyond.
Where will Harrison Jr. and Nabers end up, along with the rest of the great prospects in the class?
