It’s a mark of just how deep the wide receiver class is in the 2024 NFL Draft that a player who had 81 catches for just under 1,400 yards, averaged 17.1 yards per catch, and had 14 touchdowns is almost an afterthought.
Oregon’s Troy Franklin emerged as one of the most productive receivers in the country in 2023, with more receptions and yards than Marvin Harrison Jr, and the same number of touchdowns. Yet he’s rarely discussed as a potential top option in this draft class.
The New York Giants are widely expected to add a receiver early in the draft, but that might not necessarily be with the sixth overall pick.
