Dynasty Rookie Draft Pick Review
1.03 – Rome Odunze (WR – CHI)
Odunze got the draft capital that we all expected (and that he deserved). The landing spot could be problematic, though, for 2024, as Keenan Allen and D.J. Moore will flank Odunze. Allen is a free agent after this upcoming season, so we likely won’t have to wait long for the massive Odunze breakout. Odunze is a stud and will garner targets at a fine clip when he’s on the field, but the ceiling could be limited unless the Bear’s passing rate surprises, which could happen. Since 2021, offenses under coordinator Shane Waldron’s direction have combined to rank eighth in neutral passing rate and fifth in neutral pace. Odunze should be the 1.03 in 1QB leagues and a top-six pick in Superflex rookie drafts.

2.03 – Blake Corum (RB – LAR)
Rams HC coach Sean McVay linked Corum’s game and style to Kyren Williams, and they selected him in the third round as a result. I don’t think this denounces Williams as the RB1 in LA, but it gives McVay another option in case Williams suffers another injury. He’s gotten hurt both years he has played in the NFL. Last year, the Rams went right back to him, with nobody else worth much on the depth chart. Corum changes that equation substantially. He is a do-it-all RB, similar to Williams, even if neither are super explosive athletes.

3.03 – Ben Sinnott (TE – WAS)
At 6-foot-4 and 250 pounds, Sinnott looks like a solid sleeper tight end in this draft with no “true” standouts behind Bowers. His sleeper status is further heightened after he was selected in the 2nd round by the Washington Commanders. Sinnott fits what Adam Peters (formerly of the 49ers) would want at tight end. Great after the catch, super productive at the college level, above average athleticism, and experience as a fullback. He’s Sam LaPorta, George Kittle, and Kyle Juszczyk all wrapped up into a fun package. The best part is that he has a path to targets in the Commanders’ offense.

4.03 – Bucky Irving (RB – TB)
Irving becomes a Tampa Bay Buccaneer with mildly surprising fourth-round draft capital, considering his meh-level athletic testing (2.22 RAS). Irving should face some resistance from Chase Edmonds to become the direct backup to the team’s workhorse in Rachaad White. Irving makes the most sense for teams that are already rostering White and want to roster his handcuff, but he’s also taxi squad viable in every format and worth a pick in the fourth round of your dynasty rookie drafts.

5.03 – Johnny Wilson (WR – PHI)
Unfortunately, the NFL spoke loudly about Wilson’s skillset as he tumbled to the sixth round of the NFL Draft before the Eagles snatched him up. Wilson’s clearest path to playing time could be if he transitions to tight end, but that doesn’t even appear to be on the radar right now. With A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith both securing long-term deals recently, Philadelphia’s passing attack will run through them for the foreseeable future. Wilson should compete in camp for the WR4 role on the team. His particular skillset remains intriguing, and I’ll still take some late fourth-round rookie draft swings with him or pick him up off waivers after the rookie draft. He’s definitely worth stashing on a taxi squad.
