Dynasty Rookie Rankings (2023 Fantasy Football)

Check out our dynasty rookie tiers and rankings below.

Tier 1

  • Jaxon Smith-Njigba
  • Jordan Addison

Analysis: Each of these wide receivers should have substantial first-round NFL draft capital and profile as high target share earners in NFL passing offenses.

Tier 2

  • Zay Flowers
  • Quentin Johnston

Analysis: Flowers could easily be in Tier 1, but his draft capital is up in the air. If I knew he was a locked-in first-rounder, he would be in Tier 1. Like Johnston, he has a wider range of outcomes than the top two wideouts.

Tier 3

  • Josh Downs
  • Cedric Tillman
  • Puka Nacua
  • Marvin Mims

Analysis: Each of these wide receivers has flashed high-end talent in college with several analytical boxes checked. All of these players also could hear their names called sometime during Day 2 of the NFL Draft.

Tier 4

  • Xavier Hutchinson
  • Nathaniel Dell
  • Rashee Rice
  • Jalin Hyatt

Analysis: This group is a mixed bag of analytical darlings with size and/or draft-capital questions. Each of these players could sneak into Day 2 of the NFL Draft or drop to the top of Day 3.

Honorable Mentions

  • Michael Wilson
  • A.T. Perry
  • Jayden Reed
  • Parker Washington
  • Andrei Iosivas
