Dynasty Rookie Draft Picks

1.04 – Emeka Egbuka (WR – Ohio State)

Emeka Egbuka probably has a higher floor than Luther Burden, though he doesn’t offer quite the same level of pizzazz. An NFL-ready slot receiver, Egbuka is an advanced route runner who gets into his routes quickly and makes sharp cuts. He sets up defenders for his moves, and then – bang! – makes his break and separates. Egbuka isn’t really a burner, but he’s a shifty fellow who consistently makes yardage after the catch. Bonus: Egbuka was able to assert himself at OSU even though the Buckeyes had an abundance of WR talent throughout his time in Columbus, suggesting we needn’t worry if Egbuka lands on an NFL team that has other good pass catchers.

2.04 – Cam Skattebo (RB – Arizona State)

Cam Skattebo is coming off a monster season for ASU in which he had 293-1,711-21 rushing and 45-605-3 receiving. Casual college football fans learned Skattebo’s name when he had 233 yards from scrimmage and two touchdowns in Arizona State’s overtime loss to Texas in the College Football Playoffs. Skattebo’s ultra-physical style belies his 5-11, 215-pound frame. He has a zest for contact and isn’t going to be brought down with an arm tackle. Skattebo keeps his feet pumping through contact and always seems to be falling forward at the end of runs. This is one ultra-competitive cat.

3.04 – Jack Bech (WR – TCU)

Bech is a DAWG! A tone-setter for a team and locker room. He doesn’t take any plays off. Bech is running full-speed routes even when the play design doesn’t include him. He blocks his A%$ off every snap. He’ll be a happy addition to any NFL team’s run game.

As a perimeter wide receiver, Bech’s physical limitations show up immediately. He isn’t the fastest or twitchiest player on the field. He has the strength in the upper and lower halves to beat press coverage, break tackles after the catch, and play through contact.

Bech’s release package needs tools added to the belt. He has a good feel against zone, finds the soft spots, and is a friendly target for his quarterbacks. Bech will have to rely upon his play strength in-route and at the catch point against press/man. His skills as a route technician and his average burst/speed will leave plenty of NFL corners glued to him. He did show the ability to excel in Mobile at the Senior Bowl as a route runner and at the catch point. His hands were a strong point for him all week. Bech flashed early separation, late separation, and the ability to win at the catch point.

Bech has a wonderfully dependable set of hands. He wins consistently at the catch point with strong hands as he attacks the ball. He has only two drops over the last three seasons and at least a 50% contested catch rate in each collegiate season. Last year, among 50 FBS wide receivers with at least 20 contested targets, he ranked fourth in catch rate.

4.04 – Tai Felton (WR – Maryland)

Tai Felton is a terrific ball-tracker with good hands and route-running ability. He’s coming off a big senior season in which he had 96-1,124-9 receiving. At 6-2, 181 pounds, Felton is thin, but he doesn’t look skinny. He’s a surprisingly good tackle-breaker for a lighter guy, and he’s not afraid of contact.

5.04 – Kyle Monangai (RB – Rutgers)

Monangai has a thick, squatty bowling ball. He’s a no-nonsense one-cut downhill runner. Monangai has no issues dropping his shoulder to run over a defender or set the tone. He has enough lateral agility to create extra yards with jump cuts. He’s at his best utilizing his low center of gravity and contact balance in the second level of a defense with some steam built up. He’s a chunk-run author lacking the juice to hit explosive runs. He has at least 33 ten-plus yard runs in each of the last two seasons, but that is flanked by a 29.6% breakaway rate in college. He ranked outside the top 75 rushers in FBS (minimum 100 carries) in each of the last two seasons in breakaway run rate. He’s a proven volume rusher. Last year, he had 25 or more carries in 55% of his games and at least 18 carries in every game. His size and lateral agility limitations show up in pass protection. He can get burnt easily by speed rushers and blitzing members of the secondary. He can impede the flow of a rusher to the quarterback with a chip attempting to buy his quarterback time, but he’s not a back that will latch onto a rusher and drive them into the dirt. Monangai isn’t known for his pass-catching. He never had more than 17 targets in any collegiate season and only 0.53 yards per route run (career). Any passing game action that he offers in the NFL is a plus and isn’t a given.
