Griffith, Laube among draft prospects

Josh Buchanan, a small school draft analyst for NFL Draft Scout and Phil Steele Publications, has released his list of the top 2024 draft prospects who will be playing FCS football this season.

His list of the top 10 prospects include two players with ties to New Hampshire: Harvard defensive lineman Thor Griffith (No. 6), who played at Portsmouth High School, and UNH running back Dylan Laube (No. 9).

Buchanan’s ratings, as well as comments that were provided to The Analyst, can be found below. Here’s a link to the complete list.


Thor Griffith, Harvard, Defensive Tackle, 6-2, 305 pounds


Preseason Grade: 6th-7th Round

Notable: With an overpowering, straight-ahead style, Griffith has racked up 22.5 tackles for loss and 10 sacks in 20 career games.

Josh Buchanan Says: “He might not be rated high by many scouts due to lacking elite size, but he is strong as a bull, fast and has a high motor that should attract a lot of eyes from NFL teams this fall.”


Dylan Laube, New Hampshire, Running Back, 5-10, 207 pounds


Preseason Grade: 7th Round-Priority Free Agent

Notable: The versatile Laube gained 424 all-purpose yards in a win over Fordham to set the FCS single-game playoff record.

Josh Buchanan Says: ”The most fun player to watch on this list because Laube can do it all from the backfield, slot and he’s an elite return man.”
