As the 2024 NFL Draft approaches, predictions continue to roll in from the football world's top analysts. On Monday, ESPN's Field Yates released pick ranges for this year's top quarterback prospects, including Tulane quarterback Michael Pratt.

Yates ranks Pratt as the eighth best quarterback in the 2024 draft class. In the aforementioned article, Yates projects that Pratt's highest possible selection will be at #95 overall and his lowest projected selection would be at #145 overall.

"I could see a franchise moving up into the back end of Day 2 to get him rather than risking losing him to someone else early on Day 3," Yates noted of Pratt.

That #145 selection belongs to the Denver Broncos currently, whose quarterback situation is up in the air following the departure of Russell Wilson this offseason.

"...if they opt against an early quarterback selection -- signaling their belief in Jarett Stidham -- it behooves them to add some depth in the draft later. Pratt could fit well there," Yates added of the Broncos.

In 2023, Pratt was the AAC Offensive Player of the Year, leading the Green Wave to an 11-3 record and another appearance in the AAC title game. Tulane lost to SMU this time around. Pratt would finish his final college campaign with 22 passing touchdowns and five interceptions. He also had a career-best completion percentage of 65.4 with 2406 yards through the air

The 2024 NFL Draft begins on April 25 in Detroit.
