Welcome to the dynasty football off-season. With the 2023 fantasy football season in the books, it’s time to look ahead to the 2024 NFL Draft class. More importantly, to the 2024 rookies for dynasty fantasy football purposes. Today, we’ve conducted a rookie mock draft with some of the experts in the dynasty football community. For this mock draft, we’re using a dynasty fantasy football league with a Superflex format. In this format, you can start up to two quarterbacks, so their value is certainly higher than your traditional 1QB dynasty league format. Let’s get right into the first round.
2024 Superflex Rookie Mock Draft
Here is the draft order for this dynasty football rookie mock draft. Keep in mind, that this is the first round only. Keep an eye out for the following three rounds coming soon.
- 1.01 – Ryan Miner @RyanMiner_FFB
- 1.02 – Dave Ventresca @ff_stallion
- 1.03 – Bryan Rockwood @EsportsBrock
- 1.04 – Jake Graff @GuessImJ4k3
- 1.05 – Benjamin Ditlevson @FFRabbitDad
- 1.06 – Brandon Braasch @brandonbraasch3
- 1.07 – Aaron Schill @aaron_schill
- 1.08 – Nick Mimi @NMimi
- 1.09 – Jack Brzezinski @janibreeze
- 1.10 – Mikey Ostrowski @FF_Mikey10
- 1.11 – Bryce Williams @BryceNFL
- 1.12 – Steve Bradshaw @SteveBradshawFF
Caleb Williams – QB, USC
When you have the top pick this season, I feel you can’t go wrong either way. Additionally, Williams is what many think is a generational talent, at quarterback and at wide receiver. Moreover, here I am going with Caleb Williams who looks to be a lock top-3 pick in the upcoming 2024 NFL Draft. Furthermore, his elite traits could take an NFL team to the next level.
Wherever he ends up, that team will get a boost. Consequently, we could be looking at the C.J. Stroud of this class and a quarterback who should be a QB1 right away.
Marvin Harrison Jr. – WR, Ohio State
At this point in the process, Marvin Harrison Jr. is my number two overall player. That could change depending on the landing spots for Drake Maye and Jayden Daniels. However, Harrison Jr. might be the safest pick in this draft. He’s a can’t-miss prospect, and you can lock him in as a WR1 right out of the gates.
Jayden Daniels, QB, LSU
While Maye might be the safer NFL pick, give me the dual-threat quarterback when it comes to fantasy. The 2023 Heisman winner has game-breaking speed from the quarterback position that could easily have 5-10 designed runs a game. In a Superflex, this type of prospect can be a cheat code. Anthony Richardson was a gamble for drafters last year and paid off big time. Daniels feels like less of a gamble with even more promise.
Malik Nabers – WR, LSU
This pick will surprise people with Maye still on the board. I have never been a Maye fan. His Freshman year was fantastic but after a short break, he failed to build on that momentum. I came at this pick from a simple perspective: Who will be cheaper to trade for next off-season? Quarterbacks thrown into starting roles immediately have struggled recently. Personally, I think this time next year Maye’s trade value could take a hit and make him cheaper than Nabers.
Brock Bowers – TE, Georgia
Bowers is the most highly regarded tight end since Kyle Pitts and many see his potential even higher. I’m in that boat and I’m willing to go all in to land him. He is everything one wants at the position with his size, his ridiculous speed, his hands, and even his blocking is solid. Will he record 1,000 yards and 6 touchdowns in year one? Probably not. Overall, the chance of having a Travis Kelce-type of positional advantage for a decade is more than enough reason to acquire the former Bulldog.
Drake Maye – QB, North Carolina
Getting Drake Maye with this pick is a homerun especially if he ends up in Washington. Maye can make all the throws and offers some rushing upside as well. If he can get a good offensive coach to help fix a few things with his footwork Maye could end up being a top 5 dynasty quarterback for years to come.
Rome Odunze – WR, Washington
Coming in at 6’3 and 215 pounds, Odunze profiles as your prototypical X wide receiver in the NFL. In recent years, we’ve seen this trend change, and slot receivers can be just as valuable. However, I love getting these potential WR1 receivers. Odunze has solid hands, runs fantastic routes, and can be effective as a downfield receiver on the outside. Additionally, he’s extremely physical and has a ton of upside in the NFL. On the flip side, he is fairly raw as a prospect, could add some additional size, and work on his blocking.
In the end, if he ends up on a team that is in need of an alpha WR1, Odunze could see an additional bump in value. Overall, he is one of the few wide receivers in this class who has proven himself in college and could potentially handle a WR1 role on an NFL offense. I love the upside and might have the most of any wide receiver in this class outside of Harrison and right up there with Nabers.
Brian Thomas Jr. – WR, LSU
The 1.08 pick seems like a bit of a drop-off after the top 7 picks this year. As a result, this pick feels very interchangeable at the moment. However, I love the upside of Brian Thomas here. Scoring 17 touchdowns this season in a true breakout should have him in the top 10 discussions in upcoming dynasty rookie drafts. Additionally, he possesses top-tier speed and stands at 6’4 making him a deep threat and a red zone target. In the end, if he goes mid to late first in April he could very well find himself in a great landing spot.
Jonathon Brooks – RB, Texas
The first running back off the board is Texas rusher Jonathon Brooks. He won’t turn 21 until July of this year and is coming back from an ACL tear he suffered in November of 2023. He was expected to be ready to return to the Longhorns in August, but instead, he has declared himself for the 2024 NFL Draft.
With that information, as well as his catching ability, Brooks could very well make an impact in 2024 and beyond. He shows strength and speed when rushing the ball. Additionally, he could very well be the most versatile back in this upcoming class. Ultimately, he should be an early Day 2 pick and find himself with a first-round dynasty rookie ADP come draft season.
Bo Nix – QB, Oregon
Cumberland County College Many things will change over the next few months. However, as of now, many NFL Mocks have Nix going as high as #14 overall to the Saints. Will that happen? Maybe. Maybe not. However, if I can grab a projected first-round quarterback who was just 3rd in Heisman voting and had a stat line of 4,500 yards, 45 touchdowns, and only 3 picks back at pick #10. I’ll do that every time.
Adonai Mitchell – WR,
This Tee Higgins clone comes in at with a rare speed/size combination that is sure to push him up boards in the future months. Notably, his route running is solid, using proper stacking techniques to open up the field at the initial change of direction. In a less loaded class, Mitchell would be in discussion for the top receiver available.
Michael Penix Jr. – QB, Washington
At the 1.12, I’m more than happy to take Michael Penix Jr. in a Superflex format. Right now, Penix is projected to go in the early second round. However, I wouldn’t be surprised to see him become a first-round pick. Penix is one of the more complete passers in the 2024 class, and I expect him to be a starting quarterback. Overall, this is a solid value for a quarterback of this caliber in a Superflex dynasty rookie draft.
