Dynasty Rookie Draft Picks to Target
3.10 – Jalen Royals (WR – KC)
Royals’ draft capital outlook was unclear entering the NFL Draft. Coming from the small school of Utah State, having injuries impact his final season and his predraft process, and the common theme of people discussing this as a “down” wide receiver class were all factors that could push him down the board. I was hoping a team would fall in love with him and select him somewhere on Day 2, but it didn’t happen. Royals did hear his name called in the fourth round of the draft by the Kansas City Chiefs. Royals will now have to sift through the muddled mess that is the Chiefs’ wide receiver room. He’s likely (at best) the team’s WR4 this season if Xavier Worthy, Rashee Rice, and Hollywood Brown all stay healthy. He could easily find his way into the starting lineup if he can hop JuJu Smith-Schuster on the depth chart and Rice misses any time recovering from injury (or suspension), or Brown is unable to stay healthy. Last year, Royals ranked 30th in yards per route run, and he averaged 166.5 receiving yards across his final four collegiate games (per PFF). He’s a wonderful dart throw in dynasty rookie drafts in the third round.

4.10 – Savion Williams (WR – GB)
The Packers added another piece to their already complicated wide receiver room with the selection of Savion Williams in the third round of the NFL Draft. Green Bay looks to continue their wide receiver by committee by approach. Williams is a jack of all trades and master of none, and Matt LaFleur will have fun deploying while fantasy gamers will want to pull their hair out. Williams looks like the WR4 (at best) on the Packers’ depth chart, with some duplicity in his possible usage with Jayden Reed. Williams could be LaFleur’s version of Deebo Samuel in Green Bay. Last year, he ranked 22nd in missed tackles forced and piled up 322 rushing yards (six rushing scores). Williams is yet another fourth-round/taxi squad addition that could pay off handsomely if everything swings in his direction.

5.10 – Jacory Croskey-Merritt (RB – WAS)
Jacory Croskey-Merritt was a predraft love lister for me. Sadly, he dropped all the way to the seventh round of the NFL Draft before the Commanders picked up the phone. If Croskey-Merritt hadn’t had his 2024 season cut off by an eligibility issue, he would have gone much higher than this. His 2023 season was excellent. He ranked 19th in yards after contact per attempt and 12th in elusive rating (per PFF). He’s a no-nonsense runner who makes one cut and gets downhill. He’ll have his work cut out for him to climb up a crowded running back depth chart, but he has the talent to do so. He could exit training camp as Washington’s RB2 and Brian Robinson Jr.‘s clear handcuff.
