Dynasty Rookie Mock Draft

Let’s dive into a few notable picks from our recent four-round, 12-team, superflex dynasty rookie mock draft to help you prepare for your 2024 fantasy football league.

1.10 – Brock Bowers (TE – LV)

Unfortunately, Bowers landed with the Raiders despite zero NFL mock drafts calling for it. While Michael Mayer was a second-round pick a year ago, he lacks the talent to keep Bowers off the field. It might take a year for him to turn into a fantasy star because of the team’s quarterback situation. Yet, I’m not betting against the elite tight end.

1.11 – Brian Thomas Jr. (WR – JAX)

While the Jaguars lost Calvin Ridley in free agency, Thomas isn’t the same type of wide receiver. His arrival likely means Gabe Davis will have limited fantasy value in Jacksonville. However, the former LSU star led the country in receiving touchdowns last season and will see significant snaps and targets as a rookie after the team released Zay Jones. Expect him to play a meaningful role in the Jaguars’ passing attack in 2024.

1.12 – Ladd McConkey (WR – LAC)

McConkey comes off the board ahead of multiple first-round wide receivers because of his landing spot. Justin Herbert won’t throw a million times in 2024 with Jim Harbaugh on the sidelines. However, nothing will stop McConkey from taking on a significant amount of Keenan Allen’s 11.5 targets per game in 2023.
