2024 Receiving Projections
Fitzgerald, who set NCAA receiving records in his two college seasons, was declared eligible Thursday for the NFL draft, the Associated Press reports.
ANALYSIS
Under league rules, a player must be in college for three NFL seasons before he can be drafted. Fitzgerald left the Academy of Holy Angels in Minneapolis, Minn., midway through his senior year in 2001 and transferred to Valley Forge (Pa.) Military Academy to boost his grades for college. The NFL determined Fitzgerald was eligible because he would have graduated from high school in 2001 had he not transferred and thus is three years past his senior year of high school. Fitzgerald is projected as a top three pick overall and many expect the Raiders to tab him with the second pick in this April's draft. The next move is all his.

In an interview with the AP today, Fitzgerald did not reveal his intentions to declare for the NFL draft this season, but talk of breaking in a new quarterback and offensive line could lead one to believe that the sophomore is considering a jump to the professional ranks next season. The fact that Fitzgerald is three years removed from high school (he attended a year of prep school before enrolling at Pitt) could help his cause in making a case to the NFL for early entry in the draft.
