The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have selected WR Jalen McMillan with the No. 92 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.

Fantasy Impact: McMillan will face an uphill battle for targets in an established wide receiver group in Tampa Bay. He will likely be fourth on the depth chart behind Mike Evans, Chris Godwin, and Trey Palmer. Fantasy managers should expect McMillan to need a potential injury to find a clear path towards playing time.

The Green Bay Packers have selected RB MarShawn Lloyd with the No. 88 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.

Fantasy Impact: Lloyd will provide a change of pace and third down option behind running backs Josh Jacobs and AJ Dillon. Lloyd registered an impressive 7.1 yards per carry in 11 games last season at USC.

Fantasy Impact: Check back shortly for the fantasy impact.

The Los Angeles Rams have selected RB Blake Corum with the No. 83 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.

Fantasy Impact: Corum will join Kyren Williams in the Rams backfield in 2024. The former Michigan Wolverine rushed for 1,245 yards and 27 rushing touchdowns last season. Fantasy managers can expect Williams and Corum to both see their share of touches this season.

The Arizona Cardinals have selected TE Tip Reiman with the No. 82 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.

Fantasy Impact: Reiman is considered an excellent run blocker. He will be useful in the short passing game, as evidenced by is 203 receiving yards and three touchdowns on 19 receptions in 12 games last season. Fantasy managers should expect Reiman to slot in behind TE Trey McBride.

The Cincinnati Bengals selected WR Jermaine Burton with the No. 80 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.

Fantasy Impact: The Bengals select Burton out of Alabama with trade rumors around Tee Higgins continuing. If Higgins is eventually moved, Burton could play his way into an immediate role alongside Ja'Marr Chase.

The Arizona Cardinals have selected RB Trey Benson with the 66th pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. (Source: Ari Meirov on X)

Fantasy Impact: Benson joins James Connor, Emari Demarcado, and Michael Carter in the Cardinals' backfield. Although Connor will almost certainly stay above him on the depth chart to start the season, it is reasonable to assume Benson could be second string based on his third round draft capital. His standalone value could be limited if the Cardinals continue to to rely on James Connor, but will serve as a good handcuff.

The New York Jets have selected WR Malachi Corley with the No. 65 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.

Fantasy Impact: Check back shortly for the fantasy impact.

The Washington Commanders have selected TE Ben Sinnott with the No. 53 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.

Fantasy Impact: The Commanders are working on rebuilding the tight end position on their roster. Sinnott will have a chance to learn form a seasoned veteran in Zach Ertz and should be the tight end of the future in Washington.

The Indianapolis Colts selected WR Adonai Mitchell with the No. 52 overall pick in the 2024 NFL draft.

Fantasy Impact: The wide receiver out of Texas fell a bit further than expected. He lands with the Colts who are expected to get Anthony Richardson back under center to begin next season. He'll have the chance to earn an immediate role in the Colts offense alongside Michael Pittman out of training camp.

Fantasy Impact: Elliott returns to Dallas in the wake of Tony Pollard leaving in free agency, so there is plenty of opportunities for the long-time former Cowboy. He could be an RB3, depending on the results of the NFL Draft

The Carolina Panthers have selected RB Jonathon Brooks with the No. 46th pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. (Source: Ari Meirov on X)

Fantasy Impact: Brooks is the first running back off the board in the 2024 Draft, likely drafted due to the lackluster running back performances by new teammates Chuba Hubbard and Miles Sanders. Both of Brooks' new teammates averaged less than 4 yards per carry last year, something Carolina needs to improve upon if they want to give QB Bryce Young a real chance to succeed. It remains a muddy backfield to predict until we see and hear more from training camp and practice.

The New England Patriots have selected WR Ja'Lynn Polk with the No. 37 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.

Fantasy Impact: Check back shortly for the fantasy impact.

The Los Angeles Chargers have selected WR Ladd McConkey with the No. 34 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.

Fantasy Impact: The Chargers moved up in a trade with the Patriots to select McConkey. The Chargers traded their second-round pick (37) and fourth-round pick (110) in exchange for the Patriots' second-round pick (34) and fifth-round pick (137). Considering the Chargers moved on from Keenan Allen and Mike Williams, McConkey should see plenty of targets in his rookie season.

The Buffalo Bills selected WR Keon Coleman with the No. 33 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.

Fantasy Impact: After trading down twice out of the first round on Thursday, the Bills have selected Coleman out of Florida State. After trading Stefon Diggs, the expectation was they would draft a wide receiver early. They were also in the middle of rumors to potentially trade for Brandon Aiyuk, Deebo Samuel or Tee Higgins but this move likely leaves them out of that conversation.

Deebo Samuel is unlikely to be traded to the Bills or Patriots on Day 2 of NFL Draft. The 49ers are still receiving interest for Samuel at this time and are open to trading him. (Source: Jordan Schultz on X)

Fantasy Impact: After not drafting a wide receiver in Round 1 of the NFL Draft, the Bills and Patriots were two teams that were linked to acquiring Deebo via the trade market. Since it is unlikely this will happen for either team, expect both the Bills and the Pats to either draft a wide receiver and/or trade for one.

The Carolina Panthers have selected Xavier Legette with the No. 32 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. (Source: NFL.com)

Fantasy Impact: The selection gives Bryce Young another WR to work with. With Dave Canales now in the fold, this offense should show great improvements. Legette will have to compete with Adam Thielen and Diontae Johnson for targets in his rookie year.

The 49ers selected WR Ricky Pearsall with the 31st pick of the 2024 NFL Draft.

Fantasy Impact: Might we see a Brandon Aiyuk trade? Pearsall will be a solid add to the 49ers receiving corps

The Baltimore Ravens have selected Nate Wiggins with the No. 30 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.

Fantasy Impact: Wiggins is regarded as having excellent coverage ability and led Clemson with nine pass breakups in 2023. The rookie will likely slot in as the No. 2 corner behind Marlon Humphrey.

The Dallas Cowboys have selected OT Tyler Guyton with the No. 29 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.

Fantasy Impact: After trading down in round one, Dallas chose to address the offensive line with Guyton out of Oklahoma. He should be an immediate upgrade on the offensive line for the Cowboys to help protect Dak Prescott.
