Dynasty Fantasy Football Target Share: Which Rookies Hit?

I look forward to writing it again next year and I hope to see you in the offseason as we delve into rookie analysis and expectations for the 2023 season. However, before we let the curtain drop, let’s round it out by ranking the 2022 rookie wide receiver class.

One final reminder that I collected all weekly NFL data in a public spreadsheet you can find here. Now Let's get into it.

Year two players elevate in volume. Most good players average great targets per route run (TPRR) in their first season, but players can also have high TPRR numbers because they spend less time on the field.
