Updated 2016 Rookie Draft Cheat Sheet Available Now!

Ken Kelly

Since camps are now open, we felt this was a good time to unveil the second version of our 2016 Rookie Draft Cheat Sheet. This downloadable rookie draft sheet is yours to use exclusively as a premium subscriber of DLF.

Keep in mind the following:

1.) The rankings used are for common scoring systems and lineup requirements.

2.) The rankings are set for PPR leagues so please adjust accordingly for non-PPR leagues. The list won’t be dramatically different.

3.) These top 50 rankings do no include any IDP players. If you want combined offense & IDP rookie rankings, please check out Top 75 IDP/OFF Rankings.

The Cheat sheet contains deep positional rankings, including some undrafted free agents, as well as an overall top 50, all on one convenient color-coded draft ready sheet. We’ll update the cheat sheet one more time as we near the beginning of the season and see some pre-season action. In the meantime, you can always check our rankings for the most updated information.

Since our first version right after the draft, we’ve seen minor movement towards the top, though the possible legal trouble facing Ezekiel Elliott hasn’t scared off anyone from moving him off the 1.01.  Some movers are as follows:

1.) CJ Prosise has jumped up to #9 overall and has moved past Kenneth Dixon in the running back rankings. This likely has to do with Dixon’s MCL sprain and the questions that continue to swirl around Thomas Rawls.

2.) Jordan Howard has moved to #6 in the running back rankings and #14 overall as the news from Chicago continues to point to a time share between Howard and Jeremy Langford.

3.) Tajae Sharpe has jumped to #18 overall as the Titans continue to tinker with their depth chart and challenge Dorial Green-Beckham.

4.) Wendell Smallwood has leaped a massive 20 spots from #45 to #25 as the news from Philadelphia continues to indicate the Eagles simply love him. A jump that big this early in the off-season is nearly unheard of.

5.) Two running backs who have yet to earn the trust of the rankers seem to be DeAndre Washington (RB13 and  #31 overall) and Josh Ferguson (RB16 and #46 overall). I’d keep my eye on those two as a couple of good preseason games could push them up quickly.

6.) Ricardo Louis has jumped to the WR15 and #33 overall as he generates more and more buzz.
