When it comes to wide receivers expected to be available at the 2024 NFL Draft, Ohio State Buckeyes product Marvin Harrison Jr. has most of the hype. That’s not much of a surprise given the terrific body of work he put together during his time in Columbus. However, there are others who should not be slept on, even though they’re not ranking as high in mock drafts. Take for example Washington Huskies stud wideout Ja’Lynn Polk, who’s been called a “certified baller” by Field Yates of ESPN.
It’s an insanely deep WR class and I hope we don’t let Ja’Lynn Polk get lost in the shuffle. Certified baller
Ja’Lynn Polk Has Serious Sleeper 2024 NFL Draft Potential
Polk is projected in many mock NFL drafts to go in the second round, and Fields seems to be convinced that even if the wideout fails to blow people’s minds at the NFL Combine this week in Indianapolis, he would still feel high on him. Among the qualities of Polk that many tend to like is his ability to complete tough catches. He seems to always find a way to get to the ball even if it’s thrown relatively wide.
Finishing Ja'Lynn Polk's report. This kid has game for real. I appreciate how he attacks the ball at the catch point and what he can do after the catch. pic.twitter.com/EktzeePem8

Polk started his college career with the Texas Tech Red Raiders before going to the Pac-12 with the Huskies, where he spent three seasons. In 2023, he finally took off with 1,159 receiving yards and nine touchdowns on 69 touches. He could have had better numbers if it weren’t for the presence of Rome Odunze, who is expected to be taken off the NFL Draft board early in the first round.
Washington WR Ja'Lynn Polk is one of my favorite players in this class.
These back-to-back plays show you why. Absolute grinder in the blocking game then can go and do that as well.
Really fun player. pic.twitter.com/19tA6250Sl
