The New Orleans Saints have selected QB Spencer Rattler with the No. 150 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.
Fantasy Impact: Rattler marks the first QB taken in the 2024 NFL Draft since the first round, and he goes into a room with QBs Derek Carr and 2023 fourth-rounder Jake Haener. The former South Carolina and Oklahoma passer has a notable arm but often displayed a tendency to be overconfident in his ability on the field. He has a chance to develop into a solid QB — showing NFL promise in college — but he may need some time and will have to fight for the reps to do so.
The Denver Broncos have selected RB Audric Estime with the No. 147 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.
Fantasy Impact: Estime ran for 18 touchdowns last season at Notre Dame. He is a powerful, downhill runner who could be a compliment to Javonte Williams in the Broncos backfield. He'll have the chance to earn a role with the Broncos backfield being a bit thin behind Williams.
The Indianapolis Colts have selected WR Anthony Gould with the No. 142 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.
Fantasy Impact: Gould was a top-tier tester as a WR, testing in the 94th+ percentile in the 40-yard dash (4.39 seconds), vertical jump (39.5") and broad jump (10'9"). In a room with WRs Adonai Mitchell, Michael Pittman Jr. and Josh Downs, Gould could provide solid WR4 play, making a strength out of a unit that lacked depth in 2023.

Fantasy Impact: This landing spot certainly helps the Jets in terms of depth, but this tanks Allen's fantasy value as he will be sitting behind one of the best running backs in the league, Breece Hall. Allen's standalone value is next to nothing and will serve only as a handcuff to Hall. Even if Hall misses time, Allen still has Izzy Abanikanda to compete with in the backfield.
The San Francisco 49ers have selected RB Isaac Guerendo with the 129th pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.
Fantasy Impact: Guerendo is a physical runner that broke out his last year at Wisconsin. Unfortunately, it looks like he won't get much work behind superstar Christian McCaffrey. He may receive some work in blowout games, but otherwise assumes to be buried in the depth chart for the 2024 season.
The Buffalo Bills have selected RB Ray Davis with the No. 128 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.
Fantasy Impact: Davis rushed for over 1,100 yards last season at Kentucky after a 1,000 yard season with Vanderbilt. He also caught 33 passes last year. He holds a lower center of gravity and is quick in space. He'll look to earn a role in the Bills backfield.
The Philadelphia Eagles have selected RB Will Shipley with the No. 127 pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.
Fantasy Impact: Shipley compiled 31 touchdowns over the past three seasons at Clemson. He is a bit smaller of a running back, but he is quick and also capable as a receiver out of the backfield. The Eagles backfield may no longer be a committee after signing Saquon Barkley, but other running backs will likely still hold a role.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have selected RB Bucky Irving with the No. 125 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.
Fantasy Impact: Irving posted back-to-back 1,000 yard rushing seasons at Oregon, while also leading all running backs with 56 receptions last year. He'll look to work his way into a compliment role alongside Rachaad White in the Bucs backfield.
The Green Bay Packers have selected RB MarShawn Lloyd with the No. 88 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.
Fantasy Impact: Lloyd will provide a change of pace and third down option behind running backs Josh Jacobs and AJ Dillon. Lloyd registered an impressive 7.1 yards per carry in 11 games last season at USC.
The Los Angeles Rams have selected RB Blake Corum with the No. 83 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.
Fantasy Impact: Corum will join Kyren Williams in the Rams backfield in 2024. The former Michigan Wolverine rushed for 1,245 yards and 27 rushing touchdowns last season. Fantasy managers can expect Williams and Corum to both see their share of touches this season.
The Cincinnati Bengals selected WR Jermaine Burton with the No. 80 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.
Fantasy Impact: The Bengals select Burton out of Alabama with trade rumors around Tee Higgins continuing. If Higgins is eventually moved, Burton could play his way into an immediate role alongside Ja'Marr Chase.
The New York Jets have selected WR Malachi Corley with the No. 65 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.
Fantasy Impact: Check back shortly for the fantasy impact.
The Indianapolis Colts selected WR Adonai Mitchell with the No. 52 overall pick in the 2024 NFL draft.
Fantasy Impact: The wide receiver out of Texas fell a bit further than expected. He lands with the Colts who are expected to get Anthony Richardson back under center to begin next season. He'll have the chance to earn an immediate role in the Colts offense alongside Michael Pittman out of training camp.
The Carolina Panthers have selected RB Jonathon Brooks with the No. 46th pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. (Source: Ari Meirov on X)
Fantasy Impact: Brooks is the first running back off the board in the 2024 Draft, likely drafted due to the lackluster running back performances by new teammates Chuba Hubbard and Miles Sanders. Both of Brooks' new teammates averaged less than 4 yards per carry last year, something Carolina needs to improve upon if they want to give QB Bryce Young a real chance to succeed. It remains a muddy backfield to predict until we see and hear more from training camp and practice.
The New England Patriots have selected WR Ja'Lynn Polk with the No. 37 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.
Fantasy Impact: Check back shortly for the fantasy impact.
The Los Angeles Chargers have selected WR Ladd McConkey with the No. 34 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.
Fantasy Impact: The Chargers moved up in a trade with the Patriots to select McConkey. The Chargers traded their second-round pick (37) and fourth-round pick (110) in exchange for the Patriots' second-round pick (34) and fifth-round pick (137). Considering the Chargers moved on from Keenan Allen and Mike Williams, McConkey should see plenty of targets in his rookie season.
