Looking to stack your fantasy roster with the best players from each round of the draft? We’ve got you covered. Here they are (in reverse order).
Round 15: TE Isaiah Likely (Ravens)
Likely caught 30 of 40 targets for 411 yards and five touchdowns backing up Mark Andrews last year. Andrews was uninjured in a car accident last week, but missed the last three practices. He should be ready for Week 1, but Likely should also see the field.
Round 14: RB Jaylen Wright (Dolphins)
Wright had 10 carries for 55 yards and a score in his first preseason game. If De’Von Achane or Raheem Mostert miss any time, the fourth-round rookie with 4.38 speed could be a league-winner.
Round 13: WR Joshua Palmer (Chargers)
Wide receivers Keenan Allen and Mike Williams are gone, leaving Palmer as the team’s No. 1 receiver. This year, the Chargers have few options beyond last year’s No. 2 receiver.
Round 12: QB Aaron Rodgers (Jets)
Rodgers’ 239.20 fantasy points were the 12th-most among quarterbacks in 2022. Now he gets to throw to Garrett Wilson, a top-12 pick in most fantasy drafts.
Round 11: TE Dalton Schultz (Texans)
With so little talent at tight end, getting a top-10 talent in the 11th round should be considered a win. Schultz’s 150.50 fantasy points were the 10th-most among tight ends last year.
Round 10: QB Jared Goff (Lions)
Goff’s 4,575 yards were second-most in the NFL last year and his 289.10 fantasy points were seventh-most among quarterbacks. With weapons like Amon-Ra St. Brown and Sam LaPorta catching passes, Goff could dominate in 2024.
Round 9: TE Dallas Goedert (Eagles)
New offensive coordinator Kellen Moore likes to throw to his tight ends and without a true No.3 receiver on the team, Goedert should easily surpass the three touchdowns he had in 2023.
Round 8: WR Xavier Worthy (Chiefs)
Honestly, no one knows how good Worthy will be, but a 4.21 speedster catching passes from Patrick Mahomes in Andy Reid’s offense is worth a look in the eighth round.
