    Dynasty Rookie Draft Rankings: Player Spotlight

    Nicholas Singleton arrives with the Titans via the fifth round of the NFL Draft. Singleton will start the process as the RB4 on the depth chart, but it wouldn’t shock me if he were Tony Pollard’s backup by Week 1. Pollard and Tyjae Spears are unrestricted free agents after the 2026 season. I know the odds are slim for a fifth-round pick to walk into the next season as the unquestioned starter for an NFL team, but Singleton could have that run out if everything breaks right for him in 2026. I’m lower on him as a talent, but he’s a decent upside bet that could be made cheaply in dynasty rookie drafts.

    Antonio Williams is a sneaky Day 2 value who projects into an immediate slot role in Washington’s offense. The former Clemson standout broke out at 19 and has consistently flashed strong efficiency (2.27 YPRR in 2025) despite battling injuries and an underwhelming team environment. With Deebo Samuel gone and the Commanders ranking top-3 in vacated targets, there’s a clear path to volume behind Terry McLaurin. Williams’ slot-heavy usage, versatility on special teams, and strong production profile make him a strong late-round sleeper in PPR formats.
    – Andrew Erickson

    Mike Washington Jr. could help Ashton Jeanty with the early down lifting in 2026 and slot in as one of the best handcuffs in the NFL. Washington Jr. tested like an alien during the predraft process, leading to his fourth-round draft capital. During his final collegiate season, Washington Jr. broke out, ranking 33rd in yards after contact per attempt and 17th in breakaway rate (per PFF). Washington Jr. has blistering 4.3 speed and the size (6’1″, 223 lbs) to be a three-down back if called upon. Stash him as a wonderful handcuff in 2026, where you can.
    – Derek Brown

    The slender speedster, Demond Claiborne, was selected in the sixth round of the NFL Draft by the Vikings. He enters a depth chart led by Jordan Mason and Aaron Jones. Jones hasn’t been the picture of health over the last few years in the NFL, so it’s possible at some point that Claiborne could be operating as Mason’s complement at some point in the 2026 NFL season. I’m not high on Claiborne as a player. The speed is real, but he’s not an illustrious tackle breaker, and the size will limit his volume even if he is active and garnering touches at some point this season. He’s a fourth-round/final-round selection in rookie drafts that can be easily stashed on a taxi squad.
