Dynasty rookie draft season is the time of year when those teams who missed the playoffs turn their attention to the incoming rookie class, and delusions of grandeur take over until the games kick off. Rebuilders are full of glee as they hoard their picks, while contenders are scheming how they can pry some of those picks away, and dynasty players everywhere are champing at the bit to draft their favorite prospect.
This 12-part series will use the latest Superflex Rookie ADP data available at Dynasty League Football. We will focus on the player or players likely to be available in that specific range we’re covering, and will also include options based on the 1QB rookie ADP, whenever actionable, for those who play in that format.
The first round of rookie drafts includes the players we’ve been hearing about for months if not years, but difference-makers can also be found in the second round and beyond. Each section will encompass four picks, and we will go four rounds deep to help you be as prepared as possible.
The former Texas tight end provides great size and speed. He put together back-to-back seasons with over 45 catches and 600 yards. His touchdown production did decrease from five to two in 2023 though. He is a matchup nightmare and has great hands. He is good up the seam against linebackers or safeties. When I watched Sanders’ film, I saw inconsistency in blocking and difficulty getting good leverage with his size. He will have to improve on that to stay on the field.
