2024 NFL Draft Review Series

For those who haven’t been following along on the Sideline Specialists YouTube channel, welcome to our 2024 NFL Draft Review series! Tom Deasey, one-half of the hosts of the podcast, has put together videos for a number of the rookies that were drafted in this year’s draft. He purposefully did not watch any game film ahead of time so that everyone could watch along and see the highlights of each player the same way he did.

With that being said, the aim of this series is not to be the most detailed and down to the finest detail scouting report. This is more to take a look at each prospect coming in and deciphering what we can see from their college film and how that could translate to their new professional team!

So, we split up each video by which team they were drafted to and you can find all of the videos below!
