The NFL Draft gives a ton of love to the players selected in the first 60-90 picks, but the Draft really begins in Round 4. This is where you find the heart of your roster from a depth and Special Teams perspective. The 36 offensive players below are outside of my overall Top 105 prospects, but could be the player that puts your squad over the top. I have a strong feeling these guys will be drafted on Day 3, but some like K State RB Deuce Vaughn or Ole Miss WR Jonathan Mingo could be selected in the Third Round.
Current NFL stars drafted in Round 4 and beyond are Tyreek Hill (5th RD), Aaron Jones (5th RD), Dak Prescott (4th RD), Tony Pollard (4th RD), Stefon Diggs (5th RD), Jason Kelce (6th RD), and George Kittle (5th RD) among others. This is where you find the workers who are still moving upward on the career trajectory metrics. They grind through every practice and let their play force the coaches to play them.
If you are looking for positional rankings of the draft eligible players on offense and defense, we have you covered at Spinnable Sports. You can also find my Top 105 NFL Draft Prospects and Mock Draft 2.0: 3 Round Mock Draft in the same spot.
