'For the most part, this was a draft of starters and not stars,' the NFL Network’s Daniel Jeremiah told richarddeitsch. 'Next year, it’s the stars.' The 2024 NFL Draft has a chance to set ratings records.

Next year’s draft in Detroit, in fact, came up a lot during my reporting of how ESPN/ABC and the NFL Network produced this year’s NFL Draft in Kansas City. Everyone I spoke to said the“For the most part, this was a draft of starters and not stars,” said the NFL Network’s. “Next year, it’s the stars. We’ve got star players, not only at quarterback, but all these other positions. This year’s draft was fun, and we didn’t know what would happen with the quarterbacks and where they were going to go.

“I’m already fired up and looking forward to getting a chance to study this next group of guys,” Jeremiah said. “Anybody that has paid attention has seen Caleb Williams and how talented he is. I saw Drake Maye last year because they played against my alma mater, Appalachian State, and I was like, ‘Holy crud, this kid’s pretty good.’ It’s a long list of really talented players. It should be a special college football season, and I think that’s going to take us right into an awesome draft.

The most-watched opening round came in 2020 when sports shut down due to the onset of COVID-19 pandemic. That draft — a QB-loaded opening round with Joe Burrow, Tua Tagovailoa, Justin Herbert and Jordan Love — drew a whopping 15.26 million viewers. The 2021 NFL Draft averaged 12.52 million viewers, the second most-watched opening round. was the 2014 opening round, which saw Johnny Manziel fall to theat No. 22.

North Carolina quarterback Drake Maye, along with USC’s Caleb Williams, is expected to be atop the 2024 NFL Draft board.
