It may not be a surefire slam dunk that Ohio State's Mavin Harrison Jr. is the first wide receiver taken in the 2024 NFL draft.
ESPN's Louis Riddick noted Monday that "there are suddenly many evaluators" who believe LSU's Malik Nabers is the top pass-catcher available in this year's class. Riddick himself said he "won't go that far" but praised Naber's game and said he resembles former LSU wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase.
"Nabers is just as capable of winning on short routes out of the slot with his smooth release, contested-catch strength and ability to break tackles as he is when aligned outside and running the deep posts, sails and go routes," Riddick said.
