Dynasty Rookie Mock Draft: 14-team (2026 Fantasy Football)

Even though the 2025 season is officially over, there’s no stopping in the dynasty space. The NFL Scouting Combine kicks off in a week, free agency is less than a month away and before we know it, the NFL Draft will be here in April.

Before the top college prospects descend on Indianapolis to showcase their skills in front of scouts and front offices, here’s my early stab at a 14-team, 1-QB dynasty rookie mock draft. Enjoy.

Dynasty Rookie Mock Draft: 14-Team, 1-QB

Round 1

1.01: Jeremiyah Love (RB – Notre Dame)

No surprise here. This is as chalky a pick as it gets. Jeremiyah Love is the reigning Doak Walker Award winner and the clear top dynasty asset in this class. He’s an instant three-down workhorse at the next level, given his dangerous blend of size and speed.

1.02: Makai Lemon (WR – USC)

The 2025 Biletnikoff Award winner enters the NFL as the only receiver prospect with over 3.00 yards per route run against both man and zone coverage in his collegiate career. Makai Lemon brings elite yards after the catch ability and should command a high target volume as a slot weapon.

1.03: Carnell Tate (WR – Ohio State)

A former five-star recruit with prototypical size at 6-foot-3 and 195 pounds. Carnell Tate is a big-play threat who can win anywhere on the field. He averaged 15.5 yards per reception and scored 14 touchdowns in three seasons with the Buckeyes.

1.04: Jordyn Tyson (WR – Arizona State)

A complete wideout, Jordyn Tyson can line up all over the formation. He had 1,812 receiving yards and 19 total touchdowns over the past two seasons. Tyson has an alpha ceiling if he can shake the injury bug and stay healthy.

1.05: Denzel Boston (WR – Washington)

A classic X and boundary receiver. Boston is lengthy (6-foot-4), and he uses it to his advantage. Over the past two seasons, Boston averaged 63 catches for 858 yards and 10 scores. If he can separate at the next level, there’s WR1 upside.

1.06: Kenyon Sadiq (TE – Oregon)

Modest production while at Oregon, but the traits jump off the screen. Kenyon Sadiq is built like a linebacker and is still only 20 years old. He can line up anywhere and will be a matchup nightmare in the pros. He won’t need to leave the field much, thanks to his blocking and pass-catching chops.

1.07: KC Concepcion (WR – Texas A&M)

An explosive weapon who can beat coverage at every level, KC Concepcion scored 28 total touchdowns in three collegiate seasons. If used correctly, he could pile up yardage at a high clip thanks to his twitchiness and yards-after-the-catch ability.

1.08: Jonah Coleman (RB – Washington)

Compact build with a three-down profile. Jonah Coleman can do a little bit of everything at 5-foot-9 and 228 pounds. He rushed for over 3,000 yards, caught 87 passes and scored 37 times during his four years at Arizona and Washington.

1.09: Fernando Mendoza (QB – Indiana)

Even in 1-QB leagues, someone will take a shot on the Heisman Trophy winner in this range. With a quick release and pinpoint accuracy, the 6-foot-5 Mendoza may never be a superstar, but he could provide Jared Goff-like fantasy numbers for years to come.

1.10: Emmett Johnson (RB – Nebraska)

A modern dual-threat back, Emmett Johnson could be a PPR monster in the pros. He caught 85 passes over the past two seasons. But he’s not just a receiving back; Johnson was fourth in the nation with 1,451 rushing yards and 12 touchdowns in 2025.

1.11: Kaytron Allen (RB – Penn State)

A bruising early-down hammer who enters the league as Penn State’s all-time leader in rushing yards. Kaytron Allen increased his yardage every season and finished 2025 with 15 rushing scores. He could earn touches as a red-zone back right away.

1.12: Eli Stowers (TE – Vanderbilt)

Started his collegiate career as a quarterback. Eli Stowers possesses elite athleticism and can high-point the ball with the best of them. He won the John Mackey Award last year after catching 62 balls for 769 yards and four scores.

1.13: Elijah Sarratt (WR – Indiana)

Productive everywhere he’s played, Elijah Sarratt attacks the football and excels at contested catches. His physicality shows up near the end zone, where he lived, scoring 44 touchdowns over four seasons. He was Fernando Mendoza’s go-to target during their perfect 2025 season.

1.14: Jadarian Price (RB – Notre Dame)

Overshadowed by Jeremiyah Love but highly explosive, Jadarian Price averaged six yards per carry and scored 21 touchdowns in three seasons. He doesn’t offer much as a receiver out of the backfield, but he has utility as a kick returner, which should help him see the field early on.

Round 2

2.01: Chris Brazzell II (WR – Tennessee)

Speedy and long in a 6-foot-5 frame, Chris Brazzell II is trying to shake the bust label associated with Tennessee receivers. He topped 1,000 yards and scored nine times in 2025. Brazzell is a vertical threat who could land higher-than-expected draft capital if he tests well at the NFL Scouting Combine.

2.02: Nicholas Singleton (RB – Penn State)

Elite athleticism packed inside a 6-foot-0, 224-pound build. Nicholas Singleton had two 1,000-yard rushing seasons, caught 102 passes and found paydirt 44 times in four seasons. A broken foot at the Senior Bowl could ding his stock, but Singleton has the talent to be a force on Sundays.

2.03: Germie Bernard (WR – Alabama)

Looks more like a No. 2 WR at the pro level, but Germie Bernard is a versatile chess piece who can be used as a receiver and rusher. In 2025, he reeled in 64 passes for 862 yards and seven touchdowns, while also rushing for 101 yards and two scores.

2.04: Omar Cooper Jr. (WR – Indiana)

Gaining steam among the dynasty community, Omar Cooper Jr. is a physical wideout who excels after the catch. He caught 69 passes for 937 yards and 13 touchdowns last year. It’s worth noting that roughly a fourth of that production came in one game against Indiana State.

2.05: Mike Washington Jr. (RB – Arkansas)

Rising quickly after impressing at the Senior Bowl, Mike Washington Jr. possesses workhorse size and speed. He’s also quick to get downhill despite being 6-foot-2 and weighing 224 pounds. He rushed for 1,070 yards (6.4 yards per carry), caught 28 passes and scored nine touchdowns for the Razorbacks last season.

2.06: Zachariah Branch (WR – Georgia)

While he won’t be confused for a downfield threat, Zachariah Branch is a legit weapon in the short passing game. He excels on quick-hitters and manufactured touches to get the ball in his hands and let him juke out defenders. Branch will need to expand his route tree as a pro.

2.07: Chris Bell (WR – Louisville)

Chris Bell was generating buzz as a potential first-round pick before tearing his ACL in November. He still finished with 917 yards and six touchdowns in 11 games. He looks like a running back after the catch, with shades of Anquan Boldin to his game.

2.08: Ja’Kobi Lane (WR – USC)

Only 99 catches in three seasons, but someone will be smitten with Ja’Kobi Lane’s 6-foot-4 size and take him on Day 2. He’s a red-zone threat who had a 12-touchdown season in 2024. Lane could be a solid field-stretcher if he blossoms in the NFL.

2.09: Demond Claiborne (RB – Wake Forest)

With back-to-back seasons of at least 900 rushing yards and double-digit touchdowns, Claiborne might find his calling as a change-of-pace back for an NFL team. He also provides value as a kick returner, with two return scores on 22 attempts during his collegiate career.

2.10: Max Klare (TE – Ohio State)

Max Klare can win at multiple levels and is a threat down the seam. Totaled 1,133 yards and found paydirt six times over the last two seasons at Purdue and Ohio State. Improving his blocking will keep him on the field more as a pro.

2.11: Malachi Fields (WR – Notre Dame)

Another riser after a solid Senior Bowl, Malachi Fields is a big-bodied downfield threat. He’ll likely be selected on Day 2 after averaging 17.5 yards per reception for the Fighting Irish in 2025.

2.12: Ty Simpson (QB – Alabama)

Benefitting from a weak quarterback class, Ty Simpson could hear his name called in the first round. He started only one season in Alabama and flashed early in the season. Despite fading down the stretch, he’s an accurate thrower and has traits that NFL teams love chasing.

2.13: Antonio Williams (WR – Clemson)

A little undersized at 5-foot-11 and 190 pounds, but Antonio Williams is a smart route-runner. He hauled in 208 catches for over 2,300 yards and 21 touchdowns in four seasons with the Tigers. He also adds value as a punt returner.

2.14: Joe Royer (TE – Cincinnati)

A late-bloomer who barely played at Ohio State, Joe Royer transferred to Cincinnati and exploded, catching 79 passes for 937 yards over two seasons. He has reliable hands and a wide catch radius. Royer is tough to bring down in the open field at 6-foot-5 and 255 pounds.
