The 2024 NWSL college draft showcases a pool of talented and experienced players, with a draft class lacking an obvious No. 1 pick. About 230 players have registered for the draft, with the top two picks going to the Utah Royals and Bay FC, followed by the Chicago Red Stars and the Royals again, with four rounds and up to 56 players to be selected by the NWSL's 14 teams.
