First Round
Pick 1.01 – Ashton Jeanty, RB, Las Vegas Raiders
Jeanty is the clear-cut No. 1 pick in dynasty rookie drafts, regardless of the scoring or format. He was the top running back in college football, totaling more yards after contact than any other player had total rushing yards. Not only does Jeanty have high-end draft capital behind him, but he landed in an excellent spot for his fantasy value. Expect Pete Carroll to make him the focal point of the offense and his new Marshawn Lynch.
Pick 1.02 – Omarion Hampton, RB, Los Angeles Chargers
The former North Carolina star should be a top-five pick in every dynasty rookie draft. Unfortunately, fantasy players must play the long game with Hampton. The Chargers signed Najee Harris in free agency, which could limit his Year 1 output. Therefore, Hampton will be part of a crowded backfield this upcoming season. However, he should be the featured guy starting in 2026. The former North Carolina star will thrive as the featured guy in Jim Harbaugh’s offense.
Pick 1.03 – Cam Ward, QB, Tennessee Titans
Unfortunately, the 2025 NFL Draft class lacked star power at the quarterback position. Furthermore, Ward is the only quarterback who should get drafted in the top 10 picks in a Superflex rookie draft. The former Miami star will be the Titans' Week 1 starter. While Tennessee lacks an elite set of weapons, it improved the offensive line in free agency while adding a couple of wide receivers in the NFL Draft, giving Ward fantasy upside as a rookie.
Pick 1.04 – Tetairoa McMillan, WR, Carolina Panthers
Carolina is an up-and-coming offense with Bryce Young under center. However, the team lacked a go-to No. 1 wide receiver until it drafted McMillan in the first round. The former Arizona star had at least 1,300 receiving yards and eight touchdowns in back-to-back years to end his college career. While Xavier Legette and Jalen Coker had solid moments as rookies, they won’t keep McMillan from seeing over 140 targets as a rookie.

Pick 1.05 – Travis Hunter, WR, Jacksonville Jaguars
Ashton Jeanty is the only elite prospect in the draft class. However, Hunter would be an elite prospect if he only played offense. Reportedly, the Jaguars will allow Hunter to play both sides of the ball, but primarily be used on offense. While Brian Thomas Jr. had an impressive rookie season, the rest of Jacksonville’s receiving corps is lackluster. Hunter is the biggest boom-or-bust prospect in the draft class but is worthy of a top-five pick.
Pick 1.06 – TreVeyon Henderson, RB, New England Patriots
No one expected the Patriots to spend a high draft pick on a running back after investments into Rhamondre Stevenson and Antonio Gibson over the past few years. Yet, Henderson was the team’s early second-round pick and new lead running back. The former Ohio State star is an explosive runner who can play a massive role in the passing game. While Stevenson and Gibson should still have a role, the backfield now belongs to Henderson.
Pick 1.07 – Quinshon Judkins, RB, Cleveland Browns
Judkins wasn’t the Browns’ first or most talked-about pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. However, he is the team’s most valuable fantasy asset. Cleveland has always wanted a run-first offense under head coach Kevin Stefanski. Therefore, Judkins should become the team’s new Nick Chubb, providing fantasy value early in his career. While the Browns offensive line is far from an elite unit, it can block well enough for Judkins to succeed.
Pick 1.08 – Colston Loveland, TE, Chicago Bears
Many had Tyler Warren as the top tight end in their rookie rankings before the NFL Draft. However, Loveland will go ahead of him in most rookie drafts because of draft capital and landing spot. While the Bears have Cole Kmet, the veteran has an out in his contract after the 2025 season. Furthermore, Loveland can play all over the field, giving Ben Johnson a creative new toy for Caleb Williams in his offense.
Pick 1.09 – Tyler Warren, TE, Indianapolis Colts
Warren was my favorite prospect heading into the NFL Draft, taking him as early as pick 1.02 in rookie mock drafts. Unfortunately, his fantasy value took a hit following the NFL Draft, coming off the board as the second tight end. More importantly, the Colts have the worst quarterback situation in the NFL. Yet, fantasy players should avoid making the mistake of letting Warren become this year’s Brock Bowers, sliding down draft boards because of his less-than-ideal situation.
Pick 1.10 – Jaxson Dart, QB, New York Giants
Head coach Brian Daboll told Dart in his draft call that he looked forward to developing the former Ole Miss star. Therefore, don’t expect him to start Week 1. Furthermore, the Giants didn’t pay Russell Wilson all that money in free agency to hold a clipboard. However, Dart will start at some point as a rookie. More importantly, he landed in an underrated situation with a solid offensive line in front of him and Malik Nabers on the outside.
Pick 1.11 – Kaleb Johnson, RB, Pittsburgh Steelers
Johnson was the sixth running back selected in the NFL Draft and a third-round selection. However, the former Iowa star is one of the best values in dynasty rookie drafts. He landed in an excellent spot, replacing Najee Harris in the Steelers offense. While Jaylen Warren is still around, he is playing on a one-year deal and struggled last season. Johnson should be a focal point of the offense, especially with a lackluster set of quarterbacks on the roster.

Pick 1.12 – RJ Harvey, RB, Denver Broncos
Many will want to draft Harvey in the first round of their dynasty rookie drafts. While fantasy players can make an argument for the former UCF star, he slides into the second round of this mock draft because I’m a big fan of Kaleb Johnson. However, Harvey could be the second-best rookie running back this upcoming season because of his landing spot. He is expected to be the lead back but could potentially lose opportunities to J.K. Dobbins, who the team signed to a one-year, $5.25 million contract on June 11.
Second Round
Pick 2.01 – Matthew Golden, WR, Green Bay Packers
The Packers spent a Day 1 pick on Golden, making him the first wide receiver they drafted with a first-round pick since Javon Walker in the 2002 NFL Draft. However, the former Texas star should have an immediate impact in Green Bay. Meanwhile, Christian Watson is coming off a torn ACL and might miss most of the upcoming season, Dontayvion Wicks has struggled with drops, and Jayden Reed had a rough second half to last year.
Pick 2.02 – Emeka Egbuka, WR, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Unfortunately, Egbuka’s short-term fantasy value took a tremendous hit when the Buccaneers drafted him. Mike Evans is the team’s clear-cut No. 1 wide receiver, while Tampa Bay signed Chris Godwin to a massive extension this offseason. Meanwhile, Jalen McMillan had a strong finish to his rookie year. Egbuka is a talented player, but stuck in a crowded wide receiver room. However, he should have a starting role after the upcoming season when Evans’ contract expires.
Pick 2.03 – Luther Burden III, WR, Chicago Bears
Chicago didn’t waste any time during the 2025 NFL Draft, using its top two picks to improve Caleb Williams’ receiving corps. Burden will be one of the more controversial picks in rookie drafts. Some believe he will fill the Amon-Ra St. Brown role in Ben Johnson’s offense. Others think Burden joined a crowded wide receiver corps with DJ Moore and Rome Odunze ahead of him on the depth chart. Either way, he is worth an early second-round pick.
Pick 2.04 – Jayden Higgins, WR, Houston Texans
Higgins is one of my favorite wide receivers in the draft class. He reminded many scouts of Nico Collins, which makes his landing spot an interesting one. However, the former Iowa State star will walk into the No. 3 wide receiver role as a rookie, playing opposite Collins with Christian Kirk in the slot. Furthermore, no one on the roster can keep Higgins from becoming C.J. Stroud’s No. 2 guy in the passing game starting in 2026.
Pick 2.05 – Jalen Milroe, QB, Seattle Seahawks
The former Alabama star is the ultimate wild-card pick in dynasty rookie drafts. Milroe is far from a good passer but an elite rushing threat, making him potentially a fantasy superstar. Furthermore, he landed in an appealing situation. While the Seahawks signed Sam Darnold in free agency, the team can get out of his deal after the 2025 season. Milroe could get on the field as a rookie if the veteran quarterback struggles.
Pick 2.06 – Tre Harris, WR, Los Angeles Chargers
Los Angeles hit a home run with its second-round pick last year, as Ladd McConkey turned into a superstar as a rookie. While he won’t have the same success, Harris landed in the perfect spot for his fantasy value. He is a big-play touchdown machine, totaling at least 935 receiving yards and seven touchdowns in three consecutive years to end his college career. Harris should be the Chargers’ No. 2 wide receiver as a rookie.
Pick 2.07 – Jack Bech, WR, Las Vegas Raiders
While the Raiders didn’t draft a quarterback until the sixth round, their passing attack should be significantly better after trading for Geno Smith earlier in the offseason.
Bech had a career year in 2024, totaling 1,034 receiving yards and nine touchdowns. More importantly, the former TCU wideout is already locked into the team’s No. 2 wide receiver role. Furthermore, Bech could take over as Smith’s top guy behind Brock Bowers starting in 2026 when Jakobi Meyers’ contract expires.

Pick 2.08 – Kyle Williams, WR, New England Patriots
The Patriots spent most of their NFL Draft picks on improving Drake Maye’s supporting cast. However, Williams was the only wide receiver the team drafted. He is an explosive receiver who reminds some of Tyler Lockett. More importantly, Williams has a clear pathway to a starting role. Stefon Diggs is the only proven wide receiver on the roster. Therefore, Williams only has to beat out DeMario Douglas and last year’s disappointing rookie duo to earn a starting spot.
Pick 2.09 – Cam Skattebo, RB, New York Giants
While some expected New York to select a running back on Day 2 of the NFL Draft, it waited until the final day to add to its backfield. Fantasy players with Tyrone Tracy Jr. on their roster were happy with the Giants until they drafted Skattebo early on Day 3. While he won’t take over as the featured guy in the backfield, the former Arizona State star offers more fantasy upside than Tracy.
Pick 2.10 – Jaydon Blue, RB, Dallas Cowboys
Despite being a fifth-round rookie, Blue is one of my favorite targets in dynasty rookie drafts. The former Texas star had nearly 1,100 scrimmage yards and 14 touchdowns last season, including six in the passing game. More importantly, he landed in an excellent situation. The Cowboys have an up-and-coming offensive line, limited weapons in the passing game, and two ineffective veteran running backs ahead of him on the depth chart.
Jaydon Blue was a BEAST through the air in his Junior year, catching 42 passes to go with 6 TDs🔥

Pick 2.11 – Shedeur Sanders, QB, Cleveland Browns
Unfortunately, Sanders went from a projected first-round pick to a Day 3 selection, getting drafted two rounds after the Browns selected Dillon Gabriel. However, the former Colorado star is the only Cleveland quarterback fantasy players should want on their dynasty rosters. Last year, he led the Big 12 in completion rate (74%), passing yards (4,134), and touchdowns (37) despite playing behind one of the worst offensive lines in college football. Sanders should be the Browns’ Week 1 starter.
Pick 2.12 – Mason Taylor, TE, New York Jets
After two tight ends came off the board in the first eight picks, we wrap up the second round with another. Taylor didn’t have the draft profile of Colston Loveland or Tyler Warren, but he did land in a fantasy-friendly spot. The Jets have one reliable weapon in the passing game -- Garrett Wilson. Furthermore, Justin Fields has had success targeting his tight ends. Don’t be surprised if Taylor ends his rookie year as a top-15 tight end.
