Dynasty Rookie Draft Picks Experts Love

Below, we dive into dynasty rookie draft picks our analysts are higher on compared to our expert consensus rankings.

Colston Loveland (TE – CHI)

Loveland surprised some in the NFL Draft as the first tight end off the board. I’m not shocked by it, but I did think Warren would hear his name called first. Loveland’s top ten first-round capital is notable. Ben Johnson seemingly got his Sam LaPorta. I don’t think Loveland is on the same talent plane as LaPorta, and I don’t mean that as shade, but their skill sets are different. Loveland has stellar per-route efficiency and the route running chops to match, but he isn’t the same mauler after the catch, with only eight missed tackles forced in his collegiate career (per PFF). I worry a tiny bit about Loveland’s weekly route share with Cole Kmet, who is still on this roster. Loveland should be the Week 1 starter, but don’t be shocked if Kmet can be enough of a thorn in his side (ala Dawson Knox) to hurt his ceiling and floor in 2025. I also haven’t even mentioned a crowded target hierarchy for this season with D.J. Moore, Rome Odunze, D’Andre Swift, and Luther Burden on the roster and Caleb Williams’ worrisome 2024 play. In dynasty, we’re still betting on Loveland’s talent, a solid landing spot, and draft capital winning out. Loveland is a top-ten selection in dynasty rookie drafts, regardless of format.

Elic Ayomanor (WR – TEN)

Elic Ayomanor was drafted by the Titans in Round 4. The former Stanford standout brings a rare blend of size (6’2″, 206), athleticism (4.4s speed, 82nd percentile jumps), and production – boasting the highest career dominator rating in the class (39%). Ayomanor posted 125 catches for 1,844 yards and 12 TDs across two seasons and flashed true X-receiver traits. In Tennessee, he lands in a WR room headlined by veterans Calvin Ridley and Tyler Lockett, presenting Ayomanor a realistic chance to rise the depth chart quickly and become Cam Ward’s favorite rookie WR.
– Andrew Erickson

Isaac TeSlaa (WR – DET)

The Lions traded up to select Arkansas wide receiver Isaac TeSlaa in Round 3 of the NFL Draft – a clear sign they were determined to get their guy. A 6-foot-4, 214-pound athletic marvel, TeSlaa tested in the 88th percentile or better in the vertical jump, broad jump, and 20-yard shuttle, while also flashing 4.43 speed. Despite modest counting stats in the SEC, he was extremely efficient. TeSlaa posted the fourth-highest passer rating when targeted (145.5) in the FBS last year and earned a perfect rating on targets of 20+ air yards – a testament to his big-play ability. While immediate target volume may be tough to come by in Detroit’s loaded offense, he’s one injury away from stepping into a sizable role.

Tai Felton (WR – MIN)

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. The Vikings took Felton at the end of the third round, and while the investment of a Day 2 draft pick reflects well on Felton, he’ll have a hard time making a splash as a rookie while sharing targets with Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison.
