Dynasty Rookie Mock Draft: Superflex

2.01 – Trey Benson (RB – ARI)

Although this class is considered weak at the running back position, at least up top, Trey Benson is another back who profiles as an every-down player. With one year left on his contract, James Conner will share the backfield with Benson this season, but 2025 should be wheels up for the rookie. Benson offers a strong lower half, making him tough to bring down.

He’s a physical presence who brings great burst and top-end speed, clocking a 4.39 40-yard dash and has shown he can win with agility or power. His career .39 missed tackles forced per attempt is the best among qualifying running backs since 2014. I’d like to move him up some, but it’s difficult to put him above the receivers I have in round one. This is great value here for Benson.

2.02 – Bo Nix (QB – DEN)

The Broncos were looking for a quarterback with experience and the mental aptitude to step in and run an NFL offense. Enter Bo Nix and his NCAA record of 61 starts at the quarterback position. If Nix was purely evaluated on his performance at Oregon, he would have been a no-brainer first-round pick, but his days at Auburn cloud his evaluation.

There are questions about his arm strength and overall ceiling, but his short and intermediate accuracy is elite. His 77.4% completion percentage in 2023 is the highest single-season mark in NCAA history, and his 72% the year prior isn’t far behind. Will he be efficient enough to return fantasy value in the Broncos’ offense, or will a lack of deep balls and explosive playmakers around him be his downfall? I’m willing to buckle up for the ride in the early second round.

2.03 – Ricky Pearsall (WR – SF)

A first-round pick in a Kyle Shanahan offense who runs a 4.41 40-yard dash and landed in the 98th percentile in the burst, agility, and radius score should not be going this late. Enjoy the discount while he is the WR3 of the 49ers offense because that’s likely to change next year. I anticipate Deebo Samuel as the odd man out next season, but he or Aiyuk will likely be gone.

At nearly 24 years old, Pearsall wasn’t considered a first-round pick but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t belong. After all, he has some Aiyuk to his game with his clean route running, feel for defenders and the speed to go along with soft hands. He may start in the slot, but profiles as a guy that can move around the formation.
