Dynasty Rookie Draft Targets: Malachi Corley, Brenden Rice, Johnny Wilson, Jacob Cowing (2024)

The fantasy football season has come to an end, but that doesn’t mean the NFL stops. Of course, we have the NFL Playoffs to enjoy, but it’s also time to start getting excited for the 2024 NFL Draft. Dynasty fantasy football managers and redraft players alike can dive into the upcoming class of fantasy football rookies to prepare for the 2024 NFL season. We’ll take a look at players to know from the 2024 NFL Draft class.

Dynasty Rookie Draft Prospects

Malachi Corley (WR – Western Kentucky)

A violent bowling-ball of a slot receiver, whose compact build and tough, physical style of play led the team to work in a ton of screens and jet sweeps to get him the ball and let him bully defensive backs. Not the biggest, fastest, or most flexible receiver, but one who teams could fall in love with because of the nastiness that he brings. Will have to diversify his route tree at the next level, but high-end production over the past few years could get him into the second day.

Brenden Rice (WR – USC)

A big and strong target who runs clean routes and has the power and aggressiveness at the catch point to win over the top and near the goal line, but whose production often came in spurts. He has a strong pair of hands, and could provide a safety blanket for quarterbacks because of his wide radius. Stands a pretty good chance of sneaking into the second day because of his bloodlines and tools, although it wouldn’t be a total surprise if he lasted until the early third day.

Johnny Wilson (WR – Florida State)

A huge target with the type of game you may expect given his physical profile. He may not be the fastest, quickest, or most explosive receiver, but his releases and effective route-running allowed him to create some effective throwing lanes in school. Improving his concentration and cutting down on focus drops will be important. Could sneak into the second day because of his rare size, but in a relatively loaded receiver class, could slip to the third day if he doesn’t test well.

Jacob Cowing (WR – Arizona)

A productive, savvy slot receiver who has the speed, quickness, and savvy to contribute in that capacity as a pro, and who is a little bit more dynamic than your typical slot target. In a deep receiver class, could slip to the third day, but represents a relatively safe selection at the position.
