1. Rome Odunze - Washington (WR)
Although Marvin Harrison Jr. is the clear-cut top wideout in the 2024 NFL draft, Rome Odunze is right there with Malik Nabers for the honor of being next in line. With the resume Odunze has built, there's a real possibility that he'll be a top-ten pick in the 2024 NFL draft.
10. Jalen McMillan - Washington (WR)
Without injuries, there's a good argument to be made that Jalen McMillan would be higher on NFL draft boards. Still, there's enough tape there to suggest he's more than capable of being a mid-round pick.
9. Kris Jenkins - Michigan (DT)
NFL scouts have a lot of time for players who have their best games of the season when the spotlight is shining on them, which is precisely what Kris Jenkins did in the Rose Bowl against Alabama.
8. Blake Corum - Michigan (RB)
If you've looked at what running back Blake Corum has overcome in his career, we certainly wouldn't want to bet against him eventually starting in the NFL.
7. Ja'Lynn Polk - Washington (WR)
The skillset is there for Ja'Lynn Polk to be a Day 2 pick in the NFL draft. There are still things he has to clean up, but the potential is there for him to make an impact on NFL Sundays.
6. Roman Wilson - Michigan (WR)
Roman Wilson might not have the size, but he brings the speed to the table that's needed to create space and explosive plays. Wilson hauled in 12 touchdowns for the Wolverines in 2023.
5. Bralen Trice - Washington (EDGE)
Although there are some concerns about his length, Bralen Trice has continued to make his presence felt on the football field. Don't be surprised if he's an early Day 2 pick in the 2024 NFL draft, especially if he has a strong showing in the national title game.
4. J.J. McCarthy - Michigan (QB)
There are some questions about his potential at the NFL level, but all J.J. McCarthy has done with the Michigan Wolverines is win football games. Adding a national title to his resume will only improve his draft stock.
3. Troy Fautanu - Washington (OL)
Troy Fautanu will have his most difficult challenge to date against the Michigan Wolverines in the national championship. Whether he's a guard or left tackle in the NFL, Fautanu is a first-round caliber prospect.
2. Michael Penix Jr. - Washington (QB)
The more you watch Michael Penix Jr. play, the more you come away impressed with him. If Penix Jr. can find a way to upset the Wolverines in the national championship, there's a strong case to be made that a team will covet him in the first round.
