Another year, another list of names ...
For those that aren't familiar with my process, I track players through their entire college career. I do not have access to anything beyond what announcers may say, and mostly I'm watching for specific skillsets that are valuable to me. These change over time, but not by a lot. My actual process of watching film has grown and I definitely get influenced by the other posters, because I trust their eyes. I call it "Blink" scout because my brother came up with the name after reading the book Blink, where people use rapid cognition to make assessments, which is kind of my thing. I don't give that many notes ... Deadpool has that covered. And I go way beyond draftable players. I generally italicize guys that may not be obvious that I think will be great values.
This grouping has changed a bit, as I'm including 5 techs and guys that move around on the line, but I don't consider any of these to be guys that can drop in coverage. They'll play hand in the dirt and moving forward.
2024 IDL There are 52 prospects on this list, about half of which are worth drafting. Note ... avg. is 20.8 ... high is 24, last year was 23. So think in that range ...
