Athens — The core of Georgia’s football squad for 2024 is beginning to take shape, and there are a few important positions that NFL stars will need to fill.
The Bulldogs need to add more impact players through the NCAA transfer site because the answers aren’t as clear as they were in previous seasons.
Sedrick Van Pran, regarded by some as the best center prospect in the NFL draft, made it clear he will become pro.
Brock Bowers, Amarius Mims, and Kamari Lassiter all had first-round NFL expectations, so their departures made sense.
However, safety Javon Bullard and receiver Ladd McConkey had tough choices to make.
Though both or each may have made it into the first round with one further year at UGA, each one projects as a second-day pick.
Neither McConkey nor Bullard, two leaders in the locker room and game-changing players, have an obvious replacement on the current team.
The following Georgia veterans—Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint, Kendall Milton, Daijun Edwards, Zion Logue, and Tykee Smith—who filed for the draft will also be missed.

Warren Brinson and Nazir Stackhouse seem destined to emulate Jordan Davis and Devonte Wyatt, who notably made a comeback for the 2021 campaign in an attempt to win a title and raise their draft position.
Like Stackhouse, Tate Ratledge was anticipated to be selected in the second round and seems to be returning for the Bulldogs in what may be an All-American campaign. What gets done by Xavier Truss?
After one season in the system, Dominic Lovett is expected to be more comfortable and is expected to be the top returning receiver.
