Dynasty Rookie Mock Draft: Keon Coleman, Ladd McConkey, Bo Nix (Fantasy Football)

We have our rookie landing spots — for better or worse.

Before the NFL Draft, we have high hopes that our favorite prospects will end up in ideal ecosystems that will give them the best possible chance for immediate success. All too often those hopes are dashed, and the player-team fits aren’t as tidy as we’d hoped.

And so it was with the rookie running backs this year. It wasn’t viewed as a great RB class to begin with, and some of the top running backs in the class went to teams that might not have a lot of available RB snaps in 2024.

We got suboptimal landing spots for a few of the top pass catchers, too. Sigh.

Let’s sift through the aftermath of the draft with a three-round superflex dynasty rookie mock draft. Here is the full dynasty rookie mock draft. Below we dive into a few notable picks. And get ready for your dynasty rookie draft with our FREE mock draft simulator.

Dynasty Rookie Mock Draft

1.10 — WR Keon Coleman, Bills

Buffalo had a screaming need for a wide receiver after trading away Stefon Diggs and letting Gabe Davis walk in free agency. Coleman is a king-sized receiver who thrives in contested-catch situations. He’s a polarizing prospect, but this landing spot is undeniably excellent.

1.11 — WR Ladd McConkey, Chargers

Yes, the Chargers are going to run the ball frequently with Jim Harbaugh in control and Greg Roman calling the plays. But the Chargers badly needed help at wide receiver and got themselves a route-running savant who should earn plenty of targets right away.

1.12 — QB Bo Nix, Broncos

There’s a healthy dose of skepticism about Nix within the fantasy community. Not everyone thought he deserved to be a first-round pick. But could Nix be a poor man’s Drew Brees for Broncos head coach Sean Payton? That possibility makes Nix worth a late-first-round pick in superflex dynasty rookie mock draft.
