Dynasty Rookie Draft Advice: Ben Sinnott, Theo Johnson, Jaheim Bell, Dallin Holker (Fantasy Football)

The fantasy football season has come to an end, but that doesn’t mean the NFL stops. It’s 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

Ben Sinnott (TE – Kansas State)

If you know anything about Ben Sinnott, you’re likely aware he was a zero-star recruit coming out of high school. A walk-on at Kansas State, Sinnott made a name for himself by lining up all over the formation and doing a bit of everything. Another tight end who is slightly undersized, Sinnott is far from physically imposing but his 98th percentile vertical jump and 96th percentile three-cone prove he’s a plus-athlete for the position. He finished fourth among college tight ends in missed tackles forced with 14 and was sixth in deep catches with five. An explosive playmaker, Sinnott has major question marks as an in-line blocker. With question marks all over this group, I like Sinnott for his athleticism and ability to be utilized in many different fashions, giving him a chance to make an impact in the NFL.

Theo Johnson (TE – Penn State)

It’s easy to fall in love with the idea of Theo Johnson as an NFL superstar. He’s a plus-athlete with massive hands and a huge catch radius. He’s above the 90th percentile in height, broad jump, vertical, 40-yard dash, 10-yard split and hand size. He posted 325 yards. His seven receiving touchdowns tied for the second-most among college tight ends. So, what’s the problem? Outside of questions as a blocker, Johnson is robotic with his movements. He offers straight-line speed but cutting and changing direction is his nemesis. He is more than capable of being a red-zone threat at the NFL level and can make big catches up the seam. I have major doubts his movement will develop enough to be on the field consistently.

Jaheim Bell (TE – South Carolina)

I want to like Jaheim Bell more than I do. Unfortunately, Bell is a tweener who might have difficulties finding a role on offense. His path to the league may very well start with special teams. He’s capable of making plays in the right situation. He’s a consistent threat up the seam and is a good runner with the ball in his hands. He will likely need a specialty role for a team to make the most of his skill set as an undersized player who struggles to maintain blocks. Bell’s game compares to Jonnu Smith, who will often line up in the slot or the backfield and can be used in a multitude of ways but is always a weapon. He will struggle to play in line due to his size but has lined up all over the formation and is a good athlete. An NFL team will value his versatility.

Dallin Holker (TE – BYU)

As a Colorado State alumnus, I watched my fair share of Dallin Holker this past season and was tempted to move him higher in my rankings. Holker has a knack for making difficult catches, particularly in traffic. After three seasons with minimal production at BYU, Holker broke out at CSU as a receiver, running out of the slot nearly twice as often as he lined up in line. After recording 288 receiving yards in 16 games through 2021 and 2022, Holker ripped off 766 yards in 2023 with the Rams. His lack of in-line snaps represents a question of whether Holker can hold up as a blocker in line, particularly given his size. His athleticism and play speed leave a bit to be desired but it’s enough to get him by with his savvy route running and ability to beat zone coverage. Still, it will be tough to make a mark without being a plus-athlete or an adequate blocker.
