MY FINAL PRE-NFL DRAFT DYNASTY PPR ROOKIE DRAFT RANKINGS (Non Superflex) (No TE Premium)
ROUND ONE
1.01 RB1 Breece Hall 5-11 217 4.39 Iowa State
Hall is the most complete back in this class. He combines size, speed and athleticism with a patient running style, good instincts and contact balance and excellent vision. Hall projects as a three-down workhorse back who can be an asset in the receiving game as well as in the running game. Despite his size, Hall is not a power back, and while he has excellent straight-line speed, I would not describe Hall as particularly shifty or elusive. Rather, he wins with vision and patience. Hall will likely be the 1.01 pick in most Fantasy Rookie Drafts, regardless of format.
Range of Comparisons: David Montgomery/Matt Forte, with Demarco Murray upside
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ TIER BREAK ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1.02 RB2 Kenneth Walker III 5-9 211 4.38 Michigan St.
Arguably the best pure runner in this class, Walker not only has elite speed and excellent vision and elusiveness, but his balance at the point of contact and running instincts are outstanding. Walker burst onto the scene this year after transferring from Wake Forest to Michigan State, finishing the season as the Doak Walker award winner, rushing for 1,636 yards and 18 TDs. He posted an astonishing 1,168 rushing yards after contact, 21 runs of 20+ yards and forced 89 missed tackles. Those are elite numbers! Walker was not utilized much in the passing game, although he shows good receiving instincts and technique. Walker has cemented himself as one of the top 2 backs in this class, and a solid pick at 1.02 in Dynasty Rookie drafts.
Range of Comparisons: Knowshon Moreno/DeAngelo Williams/Jerick McKinnon, with Clinton Portis/Lesean McCoy upside
This Tier 1 of wideouts could be listed in just about any order until the matchmakers of the NFL Draft determine their destinations.
1.03 WR1 Garrett Wilson 6-0 183 4.38 Ohio State
Garrett Wilson can win from the slot or on the perimeter. He runs precise routes, and he creates separation better than any other WR in this class. His hands are reliable. At 183 pounds, Wilson is a little undersized, but he plays bigger than his weight might suggest. Despite his frame, Wilson excelled in contested ball situations at Ohio State. He has excellent body control, will outjump defenders, and he has excellent instincts and boundary awareness. Wilson impressed with a 4.38 forty at the Combine, and while speed is an asset for Wilson, he does not necessarily play to that timed speed. There really is not much to dislike about Wilson, however. He was a five-star recruit, comes out as an early entry Junior, and he rose to the top of a stable of quality, NFL-bound receivers at Ohio State. Wilson has perhaps the highest floor of all of the 2021 wideouts, and his ceiling is similarly high. Wilson’s safe floor puts him atop this tier of receivers, for now, but the NFL Draft will largely determine the order.
Range of Comparisons: De’Vonta Smith/Diontae Johnson/Odell Beckham, Jr., with Stefon Diggs/Joey Galloway upside
1.04 WR2 Treylon Burks 6-2 225 4.55 Arkansas
Burks disappointed with a 4.55 forty at the Combine, but that is plenty fast for a wideout with his size and skills. Moreover, he plays considerably faster. On game film, Burks is the best receiver in this class. He can be used in a variety of roles, prompting some to compare Burks to Deebo Samuel, and he certainly possesses that same competitive nature. I would liken him more to AJ Brown, however. Burks has excellent hands and can dominate smaller defensive backs. He will be a matchup problem for NFL defenses.
Range of Comparisons: Michael Floyd/AJ Brown, with Herman Moore/Brandon Marshall/Terrell Owens upside
1.05 WR3 Drake London 6-4 219 – USC
London’s recovery from a broken ankle has prevented him from running, and while I was not necessarily expecting a sub 4.50 forty, it would have been nice to see his athletic measurables. London is often compared to fellow USC Alum Mike Evans, and there are obvious physical similarities; however, London does not appear to have the same burst and speed. Drake London is, however, a contested ball machine. Throw it in his zip code, and there is a decent chance he is coming down with it. Drake London has an intriguing blend of size, coordination, ball instincts, vertical dominance, catch radius, ball-tracking ability and my-ball mentality. Like Burks, London presents a matchup problem for defenses.
Range of Comparisons: Allen Robinson/Marques Colston, with Raymond Berry/Mike Evans/Vincent Jackson upside
1.06 WR4 Jameson Williams 6-2 179 – Alabama
Williams is the top perimeter receiver in this class. He easily separates from defenders; however, he is much more than just a level 3 threat. Williams has a gear that few other receivers have, and he combines that speed with outstanding body control and footwork, elite shiftiness, precise route running and reliable hands. If he returns from injury with the same speed and explosiveness, Williams is a scoring threat every time he touches the ball. Teams will be forced to respect Williams’ speed, but he also excels at getting open early, much like Tyreek Hill. If Williams were to be paired up with one of the league’s top QBs, he immediately moves up in this dynasty receiver class, despite coming off of an ACL injury in the National Championship game. But for the injury, Williams would be no lower than WR2 in this class, and if you have confidence in his recovery and the willingness to be patient, bump him up. Williams is young and motivated, ACL surgeries and rehab regimens have come a long way in recent years, and this has been described as a “clean tear”; however, expectations that Williams will be fully ready to participate in training camp may be a bit unrealistic. I trust that NFL organizations are doing their due diligence in regards to Jameson Williams’ knee, and the fact that he is still being touted as a potential top half of the first round pick speaks volumes. The team that drafts Williams will likely look to ease the speedster into action, so don’t look for him to be fantasy relevant in the early going, but I am all in on Jameson Williams as a top dynasty asset. Williams is a steal at 1.06. He will go much earlier in many drafts. However, one of these receivers is going to fall to 1.06, making this a prime draft slot. Williams is pretty clearly among the top tier of receivers. The NFL Draft will largely sort out the order.
Range of Comparisons: Ted Ginn/Will Fuller, with DeSean Jackson/Tyreek Hill upside
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ TIER BREAK ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1.07 RB3 Isaiah Spiller 6-0 217 4.63 Texas A&M
Spiller disappointed badly with his pre-draft athletic testing, but game film does not lie. He is one of the best backs in this class. Despite some athletic limitations, Spiller projects as a potential workhorse RB in the NFL who can stay on the field for all three downs. He was never expected to run a sub 4.55 forty anyway. Perhaps Spiller may never become an elite NFL back, but if he finds himself in a favorable situation, he could produce solid RB1 fantasy numbers. Draft destination is always particularly important to a RB prospect’s value. Spiller is one of the youngest RB prospects in this draft, he is versatile, with some of the best receiving skills in the class of RBs, and he is proven. He is a solid pick in the first round of fantasy drafts, especially if you can get him in the latter half of Round 1. Count me in!
Range of Comparisons: Montee Ball/TJ Yeldon/Chester Taylor/Devin Singletary, with LeVeon Bell/Kareem Hunt/Arian Foster upside
1.08 WR5 George Pickens 6-3 195 4.47 Georgia
I have gone back and forth in my rankings between Olave and Pickens, which may ultimately be determined in favor of the better draft destination. Olave has the safer floor, but Pickens offers the higher ceiling. Do you want Ice Man or Maverick? If Pickens is drafted to a favorable situation, he may move up even higher in my rankings. Pickens lost 2021 to an ACL injury, but he recovered in record time, a testament to his dedication to rehab and the success of his surgery. Pickens broke out as a freshman and looked destined to top this class before injuries marred his final two seasons in Athens, and Pickens was unable to capitalize on the early momentum he created. Although Pickens is smaller than Keyshawn Johnson, he has that same kind of alpha dog, my-ball, bully mentality which should serve him well in the NFL, if he can properly channel it. Pickens has a slender frame in the mold of AJ Green, but he plays bigger than his 6 foot 3, 195 pound frame might suggest. Pickens is a smooth athlete, tracks the ball extremely well and has sudden, violent hands at the point of catch. He won’t shy away from contact, fighting for extra yards and adding value to his team with tenacious blocking. Pickens has had some episodes of immaturity, and he will need to prove he has matured and put that phase behind him. It would not be particularly surprising if Pickens ultimately emerges as the best receiver from this class. From a sheer talent and potential perspective, Pickens is in the discussion as the top wideout in this class. He fits the profile of a team’s X receiver, but he still needs to refine many aspects of his game.
Range of Comparisons: Tee Higgins/CeeDee Lamb/Chad Ochocinco/Andre Rison with AJ Green upside
1.09 WR6 Chris Olave 6-0 187 4.39 Ohio State
Olave is the best route runner in this class and will immediately be among the best route runners in the NFL. The word most commonly used to describe Olave is “smooth”. He effortlessly and efficiently moves in and out of his breaks, catches the ball cleanly, understands how to break down a defender, especially at the top of his routes, has tremendous body control and possesses both the speed to stretch the field and the versatility to win at all levels and move the chains. Chris Olave is a consummate professional, in the mold of Larry Fitzgerald. At 187, Olave is not going to win with strength and physicality, and there is some concern that he could struggle with physical corners who jam him getting off the line, but Olave consistently excelled against elite competition at Ohio State. With his physical limitations, Olave may be better suited for a role outside the numbers, where he appears more comfortable, rather than working the middle of the field. Chris Olave is the most pro-ready receiver in this draft and projects immediately as a dependable and productive starting Z receiver for an NFL team. Olave has some potential to develop into a team’s primary target, but is more likely destined for a complementary role.
Range of Comparisons: De’Vonta Smith/Jerry Jeudy, with Calvin Ridley/Stefon Diggs/Amari Cooper upside
1.10 WR7 Jahan Dotson 5-11 178 4.43 Penn State
Like Chris Olave, Jahan Dotson is undersized and may be best suited for a complementary role in an NFL offense. However, Dotson is a potential force working from the slot. He has arguably the most consistent hands in this class, his short-area quickness is elite, and he has the speed and route-running chops to win at all levels of the field. Dotson will struggle in press coverage, but his ability to beat corners deep will help keep defenses honest. For PPR dynasty purposes, Dotson could outperform Olave, based on volume, but much will depend on what happens in the Draft. For now, I have Dotson behind Olave, but that may change.
Range of Comparisons: Diontae Johnson, with Tyler Lockett/TY Hilton upside
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ TIER BREAK ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1.11 WR8 Christian Watson 6-4 208 4.36 North Dakota State
There is not a lot of game film of Watson, making him a difficult prospect to evaluate. Watson’s athletic profile is elite, but that did not translate to on-field production in North Dakota State’s conservative run-first offense. Watson is likely to be a project in the NFL, but considering he turns 23 in May, there is good reason for Dynasty managers to take a slight pause here. Much will depend on Draft Capital and Draft Destination. If Watson is drafted at the end of Round 1 or early Round 2, as is being projected, he is likely intended for an early significant role, but do not be surprised if Watson’s primary initial role is that of a field stretcher with limited, inconsistent fantasy-stat production. Watson blew up the combine in DK Metcalf fashion, and his ceiling is extremely high; however, we have seen many receivers with elite measurables fail to ever develop into reliable NFL wideouts. Ideally, you would target Watson in the middle-late portion of the second round in fantasy drafts, but in what is a weaker NFL draft class, you will likely miss out on Watson if you wait that long. Watson is an intriguing projection. If you like to swing for the fences, Watson may be your guy in this tier of receivers, but understand he is far from pro ready, and you are drafting him for his ceiling. Hey batta, batta! Swing!
Range of Comparisons: Darrius Heyward-Bey/Stephen Hill/Dorial Green-Beckham/Martavis Bryant/Justin Hunter/Marques Valdez-Scantling/Donte Moncrief, with Javon Walker/Alvin Harper/DK Metcalf upside
1.12 WR9 Skyy Moore 5-10 195 4.41 Western Michigan
Skyy Moore is short but stout, in the mold of Brandin Cooks or Golden Tate, which allows him to play through contact despite his height and to churn out yards after contact. Skyy Moore has excellent hands, and he offers an NFL team some route versatility, although he needs to refine his skills and route tree. Moore is a good athlete, but he is not going to overwhelm defenders with his athleticism. Moore is unlikely to ever offer a team WR1 production, but he could generate good PPR numbers working from the slot.
Range of Comparisons: Doug Baldwin/Amon-Ra St. Brown/Randall Cobb/Julian Edelman, with Brandin Cooks/Golden Tate upside
ROUND TWO
2.01 RB4 James Cook 5-11 199 4.42 Georgia
If Cook tipped the scales 15 pounds heavier, he would arguably be the RB1 of this class. His running style is very similar to that of his brother, Dalvin Cook, but in a lighter frame. James Cook may not have the frame to beef up to 210-215, but he could eventually settle in around the 205-207 range. Cook is a tremendous athlete who combines excellent vision, contact balance and speed, burst and quickness with dynamic receiving skills. Cook will never be a workhorse back, but there is no doubt a role for Cook’s valuable skill set on Sundays. If you play in a PPR dynasty league, Cook represents value in the second round of your rookie drafts, and, depending on your team’s needs, I might target even him as high as the back end of round one. His PPR value gives him a relatively safe floor and a decent ceiling.
Range of Comparisons: James White/Kenneth Gainwell/Andre Ellington, with Alvin Kamara/Reggie Bush/Dalvin Cook upside
2.02 QB1 Malik Willis 6-1 215 – Liberty
NFL teams are placing an emphasis on athletic QBs who can extend plays and thrive outside of the structure of the offense. Among this class of rookie signal callers, Malik Willis best fits this mold. He has a missile launcher for an arm and elite athleticism and running skills. Willis has the raw athletic skills teams desire to challenge NFL defenses. Skills which cannot be taught. However, Willis struggles with many of the basic skills required of an NFL QB, such as accuracy, mechanics, reading complex defensive alignments, progressing rapidly through his progressions, and pocket presence. The team which drafts Malik Willis will be counting on these being skills they can develop in the young QB, and one thing that has emerged from the pre-draft process is that Malik Willis reportedly has a high football IQ and appears to be very coachable. In terms of fantasy football, no other QB in this class offers the type of upside potential of Malik Willis. You are drafting Willis for his tremendous ceiling, and if you can get him in the middle of the second round (Non-Superflex), he represents potential value. Willis is far from pro ready. He could be a long-term project, and the bust factor is arguably nearly as high as his ceiling, but Konami Code Players are rare, and that is what Willis is at his tremendous ceiling. In the second round of your fantasy drafts, there are not many players with the potential to dominate in fantasy football, but Willis is one of those players.
Range of Comparisons: Trey Lance/Jalen Hurts/Robert Griffin III with Josh Allen/Lamar Jackson/Michael Vick upside
2.03 WR10 David Bell 6-1 212 4.65 Purdue
Bell disappointed at the Combine, but he was never expected to measure as an impressive athlete. Bell is a savvy technician. He has excellent footwork, runs good routes, shields away defenders and plucks the ball cleanly. Once Bell gets the ball in his hands, he is among the best in this class of receivers at generating yards after the catch. If Bell hears his name on Day 2 of the NFL Draft, look for him to get on the field early – and I am not betting against him!
Range of Comparisons: Quintez Cephus/Josh Palmer, with Anquan Boldin upside
2.04 RB5 Pierre Strong Jr. 5-11 207 4.37 South Dakota State
Like Christian Watson at WR, Strong is difficult to evaluate due to limited game film. I see flashes of excellence in Strong’s running style. Strong does many things extremely well; however, it is important to remember he was facing defenses in the Missouri Valley Conference, rather than a Power Five conference. Nonetheless, Strong runs with good vision and instincts; when he hits a hole, he explodes through it. He has reliable hands to be an asset in the receiving game, and he shows some ability in pass protection. At 5-11, 207, Strong is not a power back, but he runs with determination and has enough size, speed and versatility to be an every-down back in the NFL, if he can make the transition. As with Christian Watson, Strong is an older rookie, having turned 23 in December. If Strong can add 5-10 pounds without sacrificing speed and explosiveness, he could become the RB steal of this draft.
Range of Comparisons: Raheem Mostert/Elijah Mitchell/Rashaad Penny, with Kareem Hunt upside
2.05 WR11 Alec Pierce 6-3 211 4.41 Cincinnati
Pierce has the potential to become a team’s WR1. He has a great blend of size, speed, ball skills, hands and college production. Pierce is a physical receiver with natural hands and the athleticism to challenge defenses. Pierce may be best suited as a team’s starting Z receiver, but he also excels from the slot. Pierce could definitely outproduce a mid-round two fantasy draft investment.
Range of Comparisons: Chad Hansen/Donte Moncrief, with Eric Decker/Jordy Nelson upside
2.06 WR13 John Metchie III 5-11 187 – Alabama
Metchie was enjoying a stellar season before a torn ACL sidelined him. As with his college teammate, Jameson Williams, an NFL team will need to be patient with Metchie, but he is a versatile receiver who can contribute at all levels of the field. Metchie is likely a complementary receiver for an NFL team, and there are elements of his game (especially drops) which could improve with coaching, but I love his volume potential at this point in a rookie fantasy draft.
Range of Comparisons: Freddie Swain/Dante Pettis with Christian Kirk upside
2.07 RB6 Rachaad White 6-0 214 4.48 Arizona State
White is one of the best receiving backs in this class, so he adds some PPR value, if he can work his way into a role for an NFL team. White came to Arizona State by way of the Community College route, and comes into the draft as an older prospect. White’s value may be dictated in large part by the draft capital a team invests in him. If White falls to day three, I am almost certainly pushing him down my rookie fantasy rankings. White offers a team a true dual threat at RB. He runs with great patience, and he possesses the speed to threaten the perimeter. Rachaad White is not only elusive in the open field, but he takes good angles with defenders, slipping off tackles to gain extra yards. However, he is not an especially good inside runner. White runs too upright and looks to avoid contact. White has the size to offer some ability in pass protection, but it is an area he needs to develop. I see some qualities of a starting-caliber NFL RB in White, but aside from his excellent receiving skills, White is mostly just a backup-level talent with the potential to develop into more.
Range of Comparisons: Charles Sims/CJ Prosise, with Kenyan Drake/Darren McFadden/David Johnson upside
2.08 RB7 Brian Robinson Jr. 6-2 225 4.53 Alabama
Robinson had to wait his turn at Alabama, but once his name was called, he proved to be an incredibly productive back (1,343 yards rushing, 14 TDs). Robinson is a load at 6-2, 225, and he has decent speed for a back that size. He is not a liability in the passing game, but Robinson is probably best suited as the power back in a platoon situation. Robinson is a one-year starter, and there is potential that he develops as more than a part-time back at the NFL level.
Range of Comparisons: Bo Scarbrough/TJ Yeldon/Rhamondre Stevenson, with Carlos Hyde/Brandon Jacobs upside
2.09 TE1 Trey McBride 6-4 246 4.54 Colorado State
There is no Kyle Pitts in this class of Tight Ends, but McBride is being widely underrated. He is coming off of a tremendously productive season where he hauled in 90 receptions for 1,121 yards. There is a role in the NFL for a Tight End like McBride, and should hear his name early on Day 2 of the NFL Draft.
Range of Comparisons: Heath Miller/Dennis Pitta, with Zach Ertz/George Kittle upside
2.10 RB8 Zamir White 6-0 214 4.40 Georgia
“Zeus” is an inside grinder, with more speed than quickness. He runs with a purpose, but he was never featured in Georgia’s platoon RB system. It is unclear if White can be a meaningful contributor in the receiving game, as he was seldom used in that role. White appears to be fully recovered from two earlier ACL surgeries, and there is some hope that he may evolve into a more productive runner in the NFL than he was at Georgia. Zamir White is a former five-star recruit, he is beloved by his coaches and teammates, and he will be an asset to any NFL team.
Range of Comparisons: Roy Helu/Fred Jackson/Knile Davis, with JK Dobbins upside
2.11 RB9 Kyren Williams 5-9 194 4.54 Notre Dame
Williams’ fantasy (and NFL) value has dropped precipitously since his underwhelming performance at the Combine. Kyren Williams clocked in considerably slower than expected and lighter than expected, a bad combination. However, he is one of the premiere receiving backs in this class. He could be valuable asset in the right offense.
Range of Comparisons: Justin Forsett/Dave Meggett, with James White/Tiki Barber upside
2.12 QB2 Kenny Pickett 6-3 217 – Pittsburgh
Pickett is arguably the most pro-ready QB in this class. Much has been made about his dwarf-like mitts, but that has been a bit overblown. I don’t know that Pickett will ever be an elite QB, but he will be given every opportunity to lead an NFL team.
Range of Comparisons: Andy Dalton/Jared Goff/Mitch Trubisky/Mac Jones, with Tony Romo upside
