2024 Dynasty Rookie Position Rankings
🕑 Added 2024-05-02 05:30:01 +0000 UTCHey everyone!
I know a few of you probably have your Dynasty rookie drafts coming up this weekend already, so I decided to throw together a quick document with tier lists for each position group for how I would stack them. This is mostly based on my main position rankings from before the draft, but obviously taking into account their (new) team situations, and the draft capital that was used on them by their respective teams.
Keep in mind that I generally do not do dynasty rookie big boards with all positions stacked together because I tend to think that all-encompassing big boards make me too much of a vassal to BPA. It's almost like big boards make me not see the forest through the trees sometimes, personally.
You can of course take a BPA approach if you want to as well and make your own big board out of these position rankings - I certainly won't tell you how to draft. I just tend to do it a bit differently than others.
Either way...happy drafting! Let me know if you have any questions down below.

Hey Brett, are you doing fantasy rankings for all players this year? I always love those and my league drafts a week from today.
Brian Peters
Hey Brett where can I watch your podcast associated with your rankings? I thoroughly enjoyed it last year but can’t remember where I viewed it. Thanks and keep up the awesome work. I love it!!
Ravneet Singh
Ben Sinnott is in Tier 1, correct? It says Tier 2 but it's in blue
Shawn
I’ve probably came back to this ranking sheet 55 times and I’m torn. I’m also not as high as worthy like you but I’m sitting at pick 11 and 12 I plan on take BTJ at 11 and can’t decide between Ladd and Worthy at 12… what do you think
Brad Hitchcock
Hey Brett what's your take on Drake Maye vs Jayden Daniels? It's looking like I'm going to be picking between those 2 in my draft.
Sharen Davis
Yes exactly. Just curious about it. I’ve used your rankings in a redraft league in the past and won! I have a start up draft in dynasty and was hoping to do the same thing! I know it’s alot of work so totally understandable.
Levi
I’m pretty hyped about it! I probably had the best WR and RB rooms in the league and I decided to not over think and just get richer in those positions
David Layton
What makes it even crazier is that I have 13 picks next year. Including 3 firsts and 4 seconds
David Layton
I just stuck to my guns, heres what I came away with: 1.1 Rome 1.3 Brock Browers 2.3 Pearsall 2.5 Ja'Lynn Polk 2.7 MarShawn Lloyd 3.1 Roman Wilson 3.2 Jalen McMillan 3.3 Devontez Walker 3.10 Ja’Tavion Sanders 3.12 Kimani Vidal 4.3 Luke McCaffery 4.10 Johnny Wilson 4.12 Louis Rees-Zammit (just a shot in the dark)
David Layton
Two years of people in my league not valuing picks and two years of me over valuing them haha, I probably went a tad overboard though
Géza Radimeczky
I also managed to get my hands on Legette, Keon, Sinnott and Jermain Burton, so hopefully at least one or two is going to hit.
Géza Radimeczky
Well, I drafted Marvin and Maye this Tuesday:) we will see:)
Brett Kollmann
Not super crazy, but I would still lean Marvin. Brock at 3 is also risky. Honestly, I might take both receivers and trade for a TE with some other piece.
Brett Kollmann
14 PICKS?!?! How is this even possible lol
Brett Kollmann
Whoops that was supposed to be tier 1
Brett Kollmann
maybe I'll do some IDP stuff later in the summer when I have full rankings haha
Brett Kollmann
Slot receivers and running backs generally are the most affected. Small RBs that get receptions - but not goal line work - will thrive in PPR, while goal line backs that don't get a lot of catches are best for non-PPR.
Brett Kollmann
At this point it's too early to tell. I like both of them a lot
Brett Kollmann
Honestly, I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt. Especially since they can always move him inside if it doesn't work out anyway. It's like a tackle that gets moved to guard. See if he can do it first, and if he can't, just move him
Brett Kollmann
DAMN, now that's a draft. Absolutely love that RB trio for the future. And of course Rome is a STUD
Brett Kollmann
Like with rookies + vets in the same rankings? I don't currently have that because I haven't actually finished ranking the vets, unfortunately
Brett Kollmann
Sure thing it's right here: https://discord.gg/pbwRW7Hc
Brett Kollmann
Caleb + Rome for me
Sharen Davis
Hi Brett, do you ever do something similar to this for a dynasty startup? I know that would be way more work but i was curious. Thanks!
Nick Sadler
I’m unintellectual
Nick Sadler
Could someone help me find the discord?
Géza Radimeczky
I have two top 4 picks in superflex dynasty. Who do I pick? Marvin+Maye or Caleb+Rome?
Levi
Rate my draft class (3 rounds, made no trades on draft day, 10 team superflex): 1.05 - Rome Odunze 2.03 - Jonathan Brooks 3.01 - Marshawn Lloyd 3.08 - Kimani Vidal
Frank
Saw an article that said the Bills want Keon as an outside X receiver, does this drop him down a tier, since he would be better suited for the slot?
Jake
I traded Keon for Legette 1 for 1. Do you think that was a mistake?
Tilman
Dual threat RBs generally
Salvador Estrada
I would say tier 1 because of the color and the space he left before the next player
Tilman
Very quick. I hope your Hype of Malik Washington Pays off. Had to choose between him and Mcmillan. And now Odell is back in the talks 🥲
Travis Wagner
Are there any players whose value shifts drastically in non-ppr leagues? I know I'm in the minority in playing in a standard scoring league just wondering if there are any players you love/hate for the different format.
Salvador Estrada
No IDP players wow I'm offended
Lucas Wollin
Is Sinnott supposed to be tier 1 or 2? Hes got the Tier 1 color and spot, but in column A it says "Tier 2"
Regendur
Thanks Brett! Definitely helps for some insane 32-team leagues I'm in 😁
David Layton
I also have 14 pick (a little bit of a hoarder). At which tier does it just not make sense trying to make roster spots for rookies? Its the what I know I have and whats in the box question. I have; 1.01, 1.03, 2.03, 2.05, 2.10, 3.01, 3.02, 3.03, 3.10, 3.12, 4.01, 4.03, 4.10, and 4.12
David Layton
So I have the 1st and 3rd pick in my draft. How crazy am I to take Rome at #1 over MHJ, then take Brock at #3 (I do have a need at TE as I only have Okonkwo.
Brett Kollmann
All you need is one haha
Brett Kollmann
That is a HAUL! Love that draft!
Brett Kollmann
Sparky little slot receiver that I think provides a lot of juice after the catch, but it'll be a limited role because he's stuck behind a lot of other receivers there. He's a last round flyer in most dynasty leagues imo
Brett Kollmann
you and me both lol
Brett Kollmann
NOOOOOO I'm sorry I didn't make it in time. Also wow your draft was quick!
Regendur
I've been trying to get info on Jha'Quan Jackson (WR, Titans, #182) but he's not even on the list :'(
Kate and Andrew
I'm gonna reach so hard for Tyrone Tracy.
Connor Broderick
Wooooo best time of year!!
Jason Luttrell
I actually already had one of my drafts. Was able to come out with Xavier Worthy Brian Thomas Jr Xavier Leggette Cade stover Jordan Travis Isaac Gureendo Tyrone Tracy So I'm pretty excited about that haul. Leggette is my favorite story/player from the draft so I want to get him in as many leagues as possible
Nipo39
My target rbs are guerendo tracy and vidal and all seem possible👀 One breakout and i will win the league
Lucas Artmann
Just in time! Yeah Baby!!
Tilman
Exactly 40 minutes after my Picks 🫠
Brett Kollmann
you're welcome lol
Brett Kollmann
This is partially a bet on talent, and partially a bet on AD just having an absolute monster season so that everyone can eat
Brett Kollmann
He sure might be, but tough for me to rank him any higher than this if we won't even see him for 3 years imo
Brett Kollmann
Malik's direct competition is Tahj imo. Both might canabalize each other.
Brett Kollmann
Yep, ordered
Bennett Welco
Lol I have my draft tomorrow, haven't done any research, and was just wondering when you were going to upload this 😂 thanks for saving me a few hours of sleep tonight
Salvador Estrada
How is ad going to eat with pittman, josh downs, jonathan taylor still on the team? Not to mention anthony Richardson being a really good rushing qb. Do you believe that his talent alone will allow him to be the WR1 on his team?
Salvador Estrada
Oh my word. My draft is this weekend. THANK YOU
Chross Jaramillo
I agree with you with most things. But Penix is the truth
Tilman
How Come Mcmillan ranks over Malik Washington? Both slot guys but Mcmillan also has WR3 Competition with Palmer whereas Malik is a bit more clear cut no?
Carl C
tiers ordered?
