When it comes to dynasty fantasy football, identifying cornerstone rookie draft targets is paramount to success. FantasyPros analyst Pat Fitzmaurice has analyzed player potential, team situations and long-term outlooks, and he’s concluded these are three players every dynasty manager should prioritize.
3 Must-Have Dynasty Rookie Draft Targets
I’ve seen Maye consistently fall to the middle of the first round in superflex rookie drafts — a great price on a dual-threat quarterback whose big arm and underrated rushing ability give him superstar upside. Yes, he landed in an oxygen-starved ecosystem in New England. The rebuilding Patriots have below-average pass catchers and a shaky offensive line. Accept that Maye probably isn’t going to produce useful fantasy numbers in 2024 and focus on what he can do for your dynasty team in 2025 and beyond.

Never mind the modest draft capital spent on him and the poor hit rate for sixth-round running backs. Vidal is an underrated prospect who won the landing-spot lottery when he wound up with the Chargers. With Jim Harbaugh in command and Greg Roman calling the plays, the Chargers figure to be one of the run-heaviest teams in the league. Vidal’s backfield competition is Gus Edwards, who’s extremely one-dimensional, and J.K. Dobbins, who’s endured a major knee injury and a torn Achilles. Kimani Vidal, Troy University’s all-time leading rusher, has an excellent chance to play a substantial role for the Chargers and immediately become fantasy-relevant.
Coleman is a polarizing prospect, but I’m all in, and the terrific landing spot doesn’t hurt. Buffalo badly needed WR help after trading away Stefon Diggs and letting Gabe Davis leave in free agency. Coleman is a king-sized receiver with extraordinary ball skills. He’s Mike Evans with training wheels. Coleman’s potential is immense, and the Bills will give him heavy playing time right away. I think Josh Allen is going to love having a big-bodied outside receiver who’ll make more than his fair share of contested catches.
