| Rank | Rank Movement | Player | School | Height | Weight | Grade | Comp | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 |  4 | Amarius Mims |  |  | 6'8" | 340 | 76% | Jordan Mailata | Updated 3/11/24: A lot of what we originally saw with Amarius Mims stands true. The biggest reason for his spike in grade had to do with his lack of film. For our grading system 60% for us equates to a “Boom-or-Bust” prospect, which in the case of Mims’ lack of film we took too literal. Upon a second look of what we could find film wise, we think Mims floor is actually extremely impressive with upside still there. We think lack of starts and film could drop Mims into the teens to early 20’s, but skill wise we now believe he is Top 10 worthy. |
| 2 |  Stayed | Christian Jones |  |  | 6'5" | 305 | 68% | Shades of Broderick Jones | Christian Jones is not getting the love he deserves. He is being projected right now as a 5th rounder according to Mock Draft Database. Jones is a prospect that we are much higher on than most, but we feel it’s more justified than to call him a Day 3. He’s big, powerful, and strong and mixes that with an ability to move well and solid footwork. He can play in space going to the second level and even getting out in front of screens. There are certain things about his lower body mechanics that could be polished, but he reminds us a lot of 2022 1st rounder Broderick Jones. |
| 3 | 6 | Taliese Fuaga |  |  | 6'6" | 324 | 64% with high upside | Cam Robinson | Updated 3/17/24: Taliese Fuaga was a prospect we liked a lot in our original scout although had some concern that his college rep wins may not translate. Fuaga continued to flash as a prospect at the Senior Bowl and Combine. His stock has done nothing but trend up for us. Upon a rescout, we still have some block sustainability concerns, but also realize there’s a lot of things to like about Fuaga. He’s freaky… It’s hard to tell he’s a tackle sometimes by the way he moves. If the right team gets their hands on him, we could be talking about him as one of the best tackles in the league in a few years. |
| 4 | 4 | JC Latham |  |  | 6'6" | 342 | 66% | Slightly higher end Marcus Cannon | Updated 3/12/24: JC Latham is a prospect that is pretty significantly trending up for us. We are not a platform that likes to make a big deal of weight, but when we see something significant we will point it out. Latham was listed at 360 on ESPN, but 342 at the Combine. His footwork and the way he moved was slightly in question from tape, but let us tell you that all concerns we had we threw out the window after watching him go through the positional drills at the Combine. He looks much smoother and more comfortable at the 342. We also did a secondary quick scout of the Georgia SECCG, and the notes we made about a difference between early and late season Latham continue to hold true. The further you get into the season, the less questions you will have about overall ability. |
| 5 | 5 | Tyler Guyton |  |  | 6'8" | 322 | 57% with upside | Sebastian Vollmer | Updated 3/17/24: Essentially everything stated in our previous summary remains true with the exception of the part about his speed being in question. We actually really love the way we phrased it, Guyton is a higher end developmental prospect. Realistically with where he’s at right now we believe he’s an Early-Mid Round 2 pick, but on upside we know he’s going to sneak into the backend first round. We just hope he doesn’t get drafted by the wrong team. We think he needs to be in Philly or Dallas or with a team that runs a quick game/RPO offense, or needs to sit for a year. A team like Pittsburgh or Miami would be an unideal situation for him. The biggest thing to understand about Guyton is that his best football is ahead of him. |
| 6 | 5 | Jordan Morgan |  |  | 6'5" | 311 | 56% with upside | Lower end Dion Dawkins | Updated 3/14/24: The above summary stands true and actually continues to picture him really well. The one thing we noticed this time around that became more obvious in our quick rescout was that his punch, hand placement, and overall hand usage is a major reason why he loses reps. Improvement in his hand usage and initial punch/contact could do wonders for him. Yes, the list of negatives increased for Morgan, but we believe they should be relatively quick fixes. We still think he is closer to starting than the negatives suggest. |
| 7 | Stayed | Joe Alt |  |  | 6'9" | 321 | 58% | Shades of Evan Neal | Updated 3/13/24: Everything we said about Alt in our original summary holds true. Nothing really changed. Notre Dame offensive lineman for the most part seem to pan out: Quentin Nelson, Mike McGlinchey, Aaron Banks to name a couple. But to be fair Alt is the first one that we have scouted in the existence of The Gridiron Review, so we don’t know if all ND OLs had their fair set of issues before working out in the league. Alt to us doesn’t justify the hype of being the best linemen in this class at all. We believe that Alt is going to require a decent amount of help from Guards, Tight Ends, and Backs at the next level to sustain a “high level”of success. His footwork is the only thing that keeps him from getting beat religiously, and without it he’d probably be a Day 3 prospect. |
| 8 |  4 | Matt Goncalves |  |  | 6'6" | 327 | 63% | Shades of Cody Mauch | Matt Goncalves is a really good tackle prospect in this year’s class. The unfortunate part is that Goncalves underwent season-ending surgery in September, so we had to watch 2022 film since 2023 was minimal. He’s one of the more technically sound tackle prospects we’ve watched this year in both his upper and lower body. His lateral movement can be spotty at times, and may be something to worry about upon return from injury, but it’s not the worst issue to have. His pass pro is a little hard to truly get a gauge on, simply because it felt like Slovis held the ball for a long time in some cases. |
| 9 | 6 | Kiran Amegadjie |  | 6'5" | 323 | 65%* | Donald Stephenson | Kiran Amegadjie is a really impressive offensive tackle prospect in this year’s class. He overpowered essentially every defender that lined up in front of him. He can pull with some decent looking speed and moves well. He has strong hands and a strong punch with what looks to be possibly the longest arms we’ve seen in any scout over the last few years. Despite good, quick feet Amegadjie allows his feet to get too stagnant at times. His punch, despite being strong results in inconsistent hand placement. His lateral movement also could use a bit of polishing. The biggest question we have is how will his skills translate with a massive jump in competition? | |
| 10 | 9 | Olu Fashanu |  |  | 6'6" | 312 | 56% | Slightly higher end Jaelyn Duncan | Updated 3/17/24: Olu Fashanu’s stock is falling hard for us. Upon a rescout, he’s a much rougher prospect than we originally thought. We thought he was arguably the safest OT prospect in the class, but he’s far from. The Ohio State film looks much worse in the rescout than the original scout. Their DE’s(particularly Tuimoloau) made his life hell. Speed/finesse players give him fits. In every game we watched there was some sort of issue. Some same, some different, but always something. His flashes are good, but the consistency isn’t there. |
| 11 | 5 | Javon Foster |  |  | 6'5.5" | 313 | 60% | Rob Havenstein | Javon Foster is a tackle prospect who we believe is not getting the love he deserves. According to Mock Draft Database he’s projected a 5th rounder. We acknowledge that Foster has his issues, primarily in his lower body mechanics, but we also think he does a lot of things well. He also has a solid combination of strength and ability to move. We also think there’s a rawness to him that if given to the right O-Line coach, he could become a force to be reckoned with. |
| 12 | 1 | Andrew Coker |  |  | 6'7" | 315 | 49% | Morgan Moses | Andrew Coker is a rough prospect from a technical standpoint especially in his lower body. His feet look slow and heavy, his lateral movement is slow and awkward, and his ability to change direction is rough. We think he can pull pretty well, and passes off stunting linemen well, but he’s got a lot of work to do overall. In a best case scenario, he is a good back up in a few years down the road. |
| 13 | 1 | Patrick Paul |  |  | 6'7.5" | 331 | 47% | Shades of Dawand Jones(Lite) | Updated 3/17/24: Everything in our original scout holds true. Upon a quick rescout, we noticed a few other issues in Paul’s game. Paul was a prospect that was trending up for us Post Combine, but after a rescout his stock is trending down a bit, so his grade doesn’t really change for us. If Paul continues to improve the way he did at the Combine he could be in a place to compete sooner rather than later. If you are looking for a prospect similar to Penn State’s Olu Fashanu, but aren’t looking to draft high, look for Paul on Day 3. Similar issues, with semi similar potential, but lower cost. |
