Shawn Siegele’s Updated Top 36 Rookie Rankings Through Reality Round 4

April 27, 2024

Shawn Siegele continues to adjust his rookie rankings after Day 2 of the 2024 NFL Draft.

Wow, Day 2 was just what it always is: thrilling, weird, heartbreaking, and more than a little bit odd when it comes to the players actually coveted by NFL teams.

It’s also long. Ben Gretch and I streamed for almost five hours, covering the entire event for a special edition of Stealing Bananas, and we’ll be delivering those as SB Shorts for anyone who wasn’t able to join us at the time. (Part 1 is available now.)

For this edition of the rookie rankings, I’ll include updates through Round 4 (as I’m writing this during early coverage of Day 3).

I’ll have risers in green and fallers in red when it comes to the rankings movement. The in-draft commentary will be in blue to differentiate it from the pre-draft player profiles.

Make sure you check out Blair Andrews’ live rookie tier updates today as well!
