2026 Post-NFL Combine Dynasty Fantasy Football Rookie Mock Draft: 12-Team, Superflex

March 20, 2026

John's superflex, 12-team dynasty fantasy football mock draft with four rounds of picks for post-NFL Combine 2026. His risers and fallers in superflex and 2QB leagues.

The 2026 NFL Combine is firmly in the rear-view mirror, so why not break down dynasty fantasy football mock drafts with the results of the NFL's biggest athletic testing event in mind? It's important to note that athleticism isn't everything, as we know, and sometimes, combine results can be a bit deceptive.

Players train extensively for the Combine's events, which are antiquated, considering that playing the sport of football is far different than running in a straight line from a starting stance, jumping while standing still, and running around a field without pads on and with no tacklers in sight.

Still, it at least helps us open our eyes a bit to certain lesser-known players and validates the on-field speed, burst, and strength we see from game film, albeit indirectly. So let's dive into a superflex dynasty mock draft for 2025 with full analysis for the first-round picks and notes on the second-round guys, as well as all picks made for four rounds!

Round 4

4.12 - Taylen Green, QB, Arkansas

4.11 -  Jack Endries, TE, Texas

4.10 - Diego Pavia, QB, New Mexico State

4.09 - Le'Veon Moss, RB, Texas A&M

4.08 - Robert Henry Jr., RB, UTSA

4.07 - Sam Roush, TE, Stanford

4.06 - Seth McGowan, RB, Kentucky 

4.05 - Max Klare, TE, Ohio State

Klare didn't look great at the combine and didn't participate in athletic testing. He should fall down draft boards.

4.04 - J'Mari Taylor, RB, Virginia 

4.03 - Adam Randall, RB, Clemson

4.02 - Cole Payton, QB, North Dakota State

4.01 - Skyler Bell, WR, Connecticut

Round 3

3.12 - Eric McAlister, WR, TCU

3.11 - Jam Miller, RB, Alabama

3.10 - Michael Trigg, TE, Baylor

3.09 - Malachi Fields, WR, Notre Dame

3.08 - Deion Burks, WR, Oklahoma 

A 4.30-second 40-yard dash should help his stock rise.

3.07 - Roman Hemby, RB, Indiana 

3.06 - Zachariah Branch, WR, Georgia

3.05 - Antonio Williams, WR, Clemson

3.04 - Emmett Johnson, RB, Nebraska

Johnson didn't have an impressive combine, running a 4.56-second 40-yard dash. There was some controversy at the combine, too, as several offensive position groups tested as the fastest in history. The timing system could have been working improperly. Still, Johnson's combine won't help his stock.

3.03 - Justin Joly, TE, NC State

3.02 - Cade Klubnik, QB, Clemson

3.01 -  Drew Allar, QB, Penn State

Allar is recovering from a broken left ankle that prematurely ended his 2025 college season. He had promising 2023 and 2024 campaigns, though, and could eventually develop into a starting quarterback. He's very raw for having started for three years, though.

Round 2

2.12 - Ja'Kobi Lane, WR, USC

Lane checked some boxes at the combine -- his 4.47-second 40-yard dash was a good result at 6-foot-4 and 200 pounds. He should be able to put on his weight and still have the speed and quickness to win at the next level.

2.11 - Chris Bell, WR, Louisville

Bell is excellent after the catch. He's big, fast, can make defenders miss, and accelerates well from a standstill. He just doesn't have a highly developed route tree. He might need to be schemed into space often to be consistently productive.

2.10 - Carson Beck, QB, Miami

This year's quarterback class is weaker than usual, but there's a lack of serviceable QB2s on dynasty fantasy football teams anyway. Beck showed improvement in his final season after a rough 2024 -- the loss of TE Brock Bowers and WR Ladd McConkey from Georgia was tough for him to come back from.

2.09 - Demond Claiborne, RB, Wake Forest

Claiborne ran a 4.37-second 40-yard dash at the combine. He's just 188 pounds, but he could rise a bit in fantasy drafts, especially if he lands on a good offense. Speed, even with a lack of tackle-breaking ability, is something the best offensive coordinators can take advantage of well.

2.08 - Germie Bernard, WR, Alabama

Bernard ran a 4.48-second 40-yard dash, but more importantly, his 1.52-second 10-yard split proved he was one of the better accelerators of the group, as that was tied for 5th in the class. That should move him up draft boards a bit. He's a fundamentally sound receiver, too.

2.07 - Jonah Coleman, RB, Washington

Coleman dealt with injury in his final season in college, but he has an extremely impressive stat to his name -- per Pro Football Focus, he has the fourth-most career missed tackles per rush, at 0.316. This means that on over 30 percent of his rushes, he forced a defender to miss. That's impressive and noteworthy enough to push him into Round 2.

2.06 - Mike Washington Jr., RB, Arkansas 

The Washington propaganda is starting to spread. The main focus of his hype is his elite athleticism -- he had the highest burst score of any RB at the 2026 NFL combine, more so than top-ranked RB prospect Jeremiyah Love. At 223 pounds, Washington ran a 4.33-second 40-yard dash and jumped 10-feet-8-inches. He could thrive in a well-designed offense with a good offensive line.

2.05 - Nicholas Singleton, RB, Penn State

Singleton will be a player I'll target in my drafts if he lands on a good offense. Otherwise, we might not see a lot of him in his first two seasons. He struggles with vision and choosing the right cutback lanes, though he should get plenty of pass-catching work and is big and very athletic.

2.04 - Chris Brazzell II, WR, Tennessee

Brazzell's biggest knock is injury concerns, by far. He's unnaturally gifted as a route-runner for his size, though. He also ran a 4.37-second 40-yard dash, and probably could have run faster, so he's got great deep speed. Unlike Las Vegas Raiders WR Dont'e Thornton Jr., the speedster WR from Tennessee drafted in 2025, Brazzell excels at creating separation on horizontally-breaking routes.

Chris Brazzell II (6’5 200) Tennessee

+ Length/catch radius
+ Deep speed
+ Big play ability
+ Surprising crispness at the top of his routes with his size
+ 3.2% drop rate in 2025
+ Effort as a blocker
+ Ball tracking and body adjustments down the field

- Thinner frame

2.03 - Kaytron Allen, RB, Penn State

Allen played with Singleton and shared the backfield at Penn State. Despite Singleton being the better athlete, Allen handled the majority of the rushing work, while Singleton mixed in on passing downs more often. Allen has better vision, and at 220 pounds, could be a very solid early-down running back for a number of NFL teams.

Kaytron Allen (5’11 220) Penn State

+ Prototype running back build
+ 6.2 yards per carry in 2025
+ Short yardage power
+ Ball security with 1 fumble in each season the last two years (over 200 rushing attempts in each)
+ Rushing production has improved each year from 867 yards… pic.twitter.com/nKsJqqJxsL

2.02 - Garrett Nussmeier, QB, LSU

Nussmeier's draft stock might rise if the community views his injury as the major reason for his regression in 2025. Nussmeier's 2024 season was far better, and if he falls in the second round, he could be an absolute steal in dynasty leagues. He was highly productive two seasons ago against elite SEC competition.

2.01 - Eli Stowers, TE, Vanderbilt

Stowers tested magnificently at the combine in some events. But his production in college was lukewarm. 62 receptions, 769 yards, and four touchdowns don't scream elite player to me, though it doesn't mean he's not good. He jumped a ludicrous 45.5 inches in the vertical jump. He's just 239 pounds, though, so he could struggle to get a lot of playing time. He's not a high-level blocker.

Round 1

1.12 - Elijah Sarratt, WR, Indiana

Indiana's other top receiving target is an interesting sleeper. Sarratt has flown a bit more under the radar than Cooper, but he fits the prototypical Z receiver build a bit more. He's 6-foot-2 and over 210 pounds, and is a nice red zone weapon, winning his routes at the stem well. He also has great hands and is good at fighting through contact for tough catches.

1.11 Omar Cooper Jr., WR, Indiana

Cooper shouldn't fall outside of the top 10. I like him similarly as a prospect as I do Concepcion, who's covered later. Cooper has room to grow in a lot of areas of his skill set, which is nice, as well. His size is just fine, and he might not get a ton of reps on the outside, but the few extra pounds should help him.

— Performances (@NotNflBurner) March 2, 2026

Cooper made some truly ridiculous plays and has more contact balance than you'd think at his size.

1.10 - Kenyon Sadiq, TE, Oregon

Sadiq's athletic measurables are absolutely off the charts. At 241 pounds, he ran an official 4.39-second 40-yard dash at the combine. He also jumped an absurd 43.5 inches in the vertical and leaped 11-foot-1-inch in the broad jump. But his college production was just not impressive, and that's hard to look past.

— Performances (@NotNflBurner) February 16, 2026

Tight ends without elite speed, like Cleveland Browns TE Harold Fannin Jr., sometimes still find a way to put up ridiculous numbers in college football. Fannin was quite promising in his rookie season, though he had to battle through poor quarterback play and a team in shambles, as well as competition from fellow TE David Njoku.

My analysis indicates that Sadiq will be extremely landing spot-dependent.

1.09 - KC Concepcion, WR, Texas A&M

Where Concepcion is going in mock drafts seems to be a bit high for a WR that probably won't have the ability to play outside. Concepcion is 5-foot-11 and just 190 pounds, and likely will be restricted to the slot on most of his reps for his NFL career. But he had an early breakout age, which is a nice green flag, and he's quite effective after the catch.

Kyle Williams and KC Concepcion are kind of the exact same dude on tape.

It's actually uncanny.

— ZeeBee (@BellinoZee) March 7, 2026

He lacks strong hands, though, and has had problems with drops, and isn't very physical through the process of his routes. He'll likely have restricted snaps in the NFL, especially on a team that runs a lot of 2WR sets, where they'd prefer to have bigger wideouts that can block better and match up well against big cornerbacks.

1.08 - Denzel Boston, WR, Washington 

Boston is perhaps the best of the big-bodied wideouts in this year's draft class that don't have high-level route-running ability. Boston could develop into a nice red zone threat at the next level, but he has a lot of work to do on separating at all three levels of the field. WRs typically can't thrive based on just contested catches alone, especially with how defenses have dominated the passing game in recent years.

Washington WR Denzel Boston (6-3, 209) is the definition of a ball winner... Sure hands, big catch radius with a strong frame.

Tape is littered with reps where he's dunking on top of guys in the red zone (20 TDs since 2024). pic.twitter.com/dKG3Nte6Y1

1.07 - Ty Simpson, QB, Alabama

It doesn't seem completely unlikely that a quarterback-desperate team will become enamored with Simpson's ability to read and manipulate defenses both pre- and post-snap and take a chance on him early in the first round. Should he land in a good spot on a QB-needy team and immediately start, we could see his dynasty stock rise.

— LandonTengwall (@LandonTengwall) February 24, 2026

Simpson has a great ability to stand tall in the face of pressure and deliver highly accurate throws. He doesn't have elite arm talent, but it's sufficient to make most NFL throws, and what's between the ears matters more than what's attached to the shoulders for signal-callers.

1.06 - Jadarian Price, RB, Notre Dame

Price is quite talented, but playing behind a talent like the No. 1 player on this list has a way of sinking your draft capital and dynasty fantasy football ADP. There's a ton to like about his tape, though, and with this year's WR class being quite weak outside of the top three, it would make sense to reach a bit for Price here.

Jadarian Price | RB | ND

Slashing, 1-cut runner w/ good build up speed to hit big plays. At his best square to the EZ. Has good vision to locate gaps & plants foot to get to them quickly.

Forward leaning run style allows him to run through arm tackles & maintain speed. pic.twitter.com/bTM7n9C1Mi

1.05 - Carnell Tate, WR, Ohio State

Tate, being the third receiver off the board here, isn't an indictment of his skill set or anything like that. But he's, to my mind, more limited as a receiver than the first two. To me, there's quite a drop-off after the top three skill-position players on this list. Tate does a great job getting open on deep routes and making sharp cuts in his routes to shake defenders without having to throttle down.

People are overthinking this so much

For those wondering, JSN ran a 4.52 at the NFL Combine too

If you play at 4.52, you're fine

Watch him play... Carnell Tate is such a smooth route runner & great at contested catches pic.twitter.com/xlFkiEp3UA https://t.co/3zuFZdBdEA

— Ohio Divided (@BuckeyeNatty) March 2, 2026

He's also fantastic at making catches in traffic, though it's possible his smaller frame could make that much more difficult in the NFL against bigger, faster, stronger, and more physical cornerbacks. Tate is 6-foot-3 but just 195 pounds. There are receivers like Philadelphia Eagles wideout DeVonta Smith that can make it work, though, so Tate could have a great career.

1.04 - Jordyn Tyson, WR, Arizona State

Tyson going over Tate makes sense. Tyson is the more polished route-runner, is an excellent ball-tracker, can separate at all three levels of the field, is big enough to play as the X receiver, and is extremely dependable in all phases of his game -- except one. Tyson has struggled with injuries throughout his college career.

Carnell Tate vs Jordyn Tyson reminds me of pre draft Marv/Odunze vs Nabers.

That run 30 yards down field and make a contested catch shit doesn’t translate to the NFL.

I firmly have Tyson and Lemon ranked above Tate, and I'll likely be keeping it that way. I see the depth of their skill sets and the completeness of their games as... well, more complete. They're players I'd rather have on my team if I was a quarterback, and I think they'll have better and longer careers, depending on landing spot, of course.

1.03 - Makai Lemon, WR, USC

While both Tate and Tyson have a deeper route-running skill set than Lemon does, they don't possess the "dawg" factor that Lemon has. While his combine interviews raised red flags for some scouts, the most important thing we can evaluate a player on is his tape. If a player has fantastic tape, we have to assume they're a good player.

Makai Lemon is a tough cover and a PROBLEM after the catch 👀

Extremely reliable slot WR who creates consistent separation and basically never drops the ball at USC.

— NFL Draft Files (@NFL_DF) August 14, 2025

Lemon's toughness, excellent hands, and ability to create big gains after the catch are all absolutely fantastic and arguably the best in his draft class. He brings an extra X factor to an offense that shouldn't be overlooked. There are legitimate criticisms of his struggles in press coverage against strong defensive backs and his explosiveness out of his route breaks.

But he's good enough as a route-runner when you factor in his other positives. Lemon as a top-5 pick in dynasty fantasy leagues should be unquestioned.

1.02 - Fernando Mendoza, QB, Indiana

Mendoza is the best quarterback in this year's draft class. He just won the NCAA College Football National Championship in 2025, and appears to be ready to step into a starting job on Day 1 of his NFL career. That's likely what will happen -- all signs point to the Las Vegas Raiders picking him No. 1 overall in the 2026 NFL Draft.

Mendoza is accurate, he does a good job at breaking down NFL defenses before the snap, he has good arm strength, and he's athletic enough to move the chains on quarterback runs, though he's no track star. He has the requisite size to stand up to NFL punishment, and doesn't panic under pressure.

Fernando Mendoza is more than deserving of the #1 overall pick

The Raiders will be in good hands pic.twitter.com/fIuMAPH423

— NFL Draft Files (@NFL_DF) March 6, 2026

There are some areas of his game that need work, like fixing his mechanics for making accurate throws on the run. But they're coachable,  and the Raiders have offensive mastermind Klint Kubiak as their head coach now. Mendoza will be in great hands for a long time.

1.01 - Jeremiyah Love, RB, Notre Dame

Love should be the No. 1 overall pick in both superflex and 1QB dynasty fantasy football drafts, according to my analysis. While it's possible that Mendoza could be incredible for dynasty fantasy football for a long time, even in 2QB leagues, the running back position is getting more and more important every season.

NFL teams collectively logged an average of just 209.8 passing yards per game in 2025. Right around this number is what things will likely be moving forward. And for two seasons in a row, the most impactful players in dynasty fantasy football have been running backs -- in 2025, it was Atlanta Falcons RB Bijan Robinson.

There are a few gripes here and there with Love's game, like his pad level and tendency to run upright. But he's massively talented at playing his position and is an elite athlete. He's the only RB in this year's draft that can put an NFL offense on his back, according to my analysis. He's a fantastic pick to make at No. 1 overall.
