NFL Draft best players available 2024: Here are top prospects remaining for Rounds 4-7 image

Offense was the name of the game on the first day of the 2024 NFL Draft. The second day saw more balance, but the chaos continued throughout the draft's second and third rounds.

Twelve of the first 15 picks in the second round were traded as NFL teams fought tooth and nail to move up. Many selected potential first-round picks that slipped to the second, including the Eagles' selection of cornerback Cooper DeJean at 40, while plenty of receivers and offensive tackles came off the board around them.

No quarterbacks went on Day 2 of the draft after six went in Round 1. Some believed South Carolina's Spencer Rattler would be selected, but he will be among the top players available on Day 3 of the 2024 NFL Draft.

Rattler isn't the only quality player yet to be selected. A couple of players that ranked within Sporting News' top 50 players for the 2024 NFL Draft are are still available entering Round 4.

Who are the top players on the board as the draft's final day begins? Here's a look at the best 2024 NFL Draft prospects still looking for work after the first 100 picks of the event.

Hicks is a very active and instinctive upfield safety who is still improving as a coverage asset.

68. Javon Baker, WR, UCF (6-1, 202 pounds)

Baker is standing out more among the wideouts as a technically sound route-runner with good hands, giving him appeal as a reliable possession slot.

Jackson has gotten more attention lately because of his ideal frame and still-developing coverage technique.

73. Dadrion Taylor-Demerson, S, Texas Tech (5-10, 197 pounds)

Taylor-Demerson is moving up boards quickly because he is smart and versatile enough to help a secondary in any capacity.

Walker is a smart technician of a target who uses his size and speed well to stretch the field.

92. Braelon Allen, RB, Wisconsin (6-1, 235 pounds)

114. Tommy Eichenberg, LB, Ohio State (6-2, 233 pounds)

Eichenberger is a well-rounded linebacker who covers plenty of ground vs. the run and pass, but he could stand to improve quite a bit in both areas, especially the former.

115. Audric Estime, RB, Notre Dame (5-11, 221 pounds)

Estime is a strong, compact, no-nonsense power runner who bursts quickly through holes. He can be a nasty between-the-tackles asset in the NFL.
