Dynasty Rookie Draft Pick Review

1.10 – Trey Benson (RB – ARI)

Benson will have to contend with a still-spry James Conner for touches all season. Yes, Conner hasn’t played more than 13 games in a season over the last two years, so Benson could get some run as the team’s starter in 2024. It’s impossible to project that with the uncertainty of injuries, but it has to be mentioned. Even in a 1B role to Conner, Benson could make some noise with big plays. Over the last two collegiate seasons, Benson has ranked 10th and third in breakaway percentage and 42nd and first in elusive rating (per PFF). With an offense that ranked fourth in neutral script rushing rate last year, there should be enough rushing volume weekly for Benson to have flex viability. He’s a priority handcuff this season with some standalone value.

2.10 – Troy Franklin (WR – DEN)

Troy Franklin capped his junior year at Oregon with nearly 1,400 yards and 14 touchdowns, showcasing his deep-threat capabilities with a 29% dominator rating. Despite concerns about his slender frame at 6-foot-3 and 183 lbs, his rumored 4.35-second 40-yard dash underscores his potential as a top-tier receiver and early breakout age. Drafted early in Round 4 by the Broncos after a disappointing combine, Franklin finds a favorable situation under Sean Payton, who has a history of trading up for wide receivers. Positioned to play the “Z” role previously held by Jerry Jeudy, Franklin’s existing chemistry with Broncos QB Bo Nix, his former college teammate, could enhance his opportunity to make an immediate impact.

3.10 – Braelon Allen (RB – NYJ)

The Jets love spending Day 3 picks on backup running backs. They did it last year with Israel Abanikanda (fifth round), and they did so again this year twice. Allen was the first of this year’s crop, followed by Isaiah Davis. Allen will compete for the RB2 job in camp with Abanikanda and Davis but don’t expect much work this year for whoever wins that job. Breece Hall is the team’s bellcow, and with a full offseason to strengthen his knee, he could shoulder an even heavier load in 2024. Allen is in a large bucket of fourth-round dart throw backs that you can pick their name out of a hat. He makes the most sense for teams with Hall rostered. I was lower on his prospect profile than most and will be taking shots on other players in those later rounds of rookie drafts.
