Derek Brown shares his outlook for a few dynasty rookies below.

Tyler Shough (NO)

With Derek Carr retiring, the pick of Tyler Shough inside the top 50 in the NFL Draft makes more sense. He will compete in camp to be the Saints’ Week 1 starter, and I’d even call him the favorite to land the job, considering what we have seen (or have not seen) from the other players in that room. If we assume that he’s the Saints’ starter for 2025, he has immediate QB2 appeal for Superflex squads. If Shough can play well enough this upcoming season, it’s not insane to think that he could be the team’s long-term starter, although I’m highly skeptical, and I think it’s best to view his starting window as maybe only one year. Last year, he was sixth in passing grade, but he ranked outside the top 20 quarterbacks in adjusted completion rate (30th), yards per attempt (24th), big-time throw rate (35th), and deep ball adjusted completion rate (72nd, per PFF). Shough is in play in the second round/early-third round of dynasty rookie drafts.

Shedeur Sanders (CLE)

I’m not going to discuss Sanders’ fall in the NFL Draft, but it happened, and now the big question is, “How do we react in Dynasty rookie drafts?” Sanders is now a lottery ticket late second-round/early third-round rookie draft pick. He could shine in camp and the preseason and run away with the Browns’ starting job or, at the very least, push Joe Flacco and ascend to the QB2 spot. He could be starting at some point this season in Cleveland, or he could sit all year as a backup, who is buried on the depth chart as the team’s QB3. There’s a wide range of outcomes here, and it depends on how he performs, how others perform around him, and if the Browns make this “truly” an open competition for the starting throne. Sanders has the talent to make some noise on the football field in Cleveland. Last year, he ranked third in passing grade, fourth in adjusted completion rate, 12th in yards per attempt, and 18th in deep ball adjusted completion rate (per PFF).
