Sammy Watkins tops QSN’s pre-combine 2014 fantasy football rookie rankings.
For QFL Nation, it’s never too early to start looking at the next crop of rookies. Even before the combine and NFL draft we can get a sense for some things, like the depth of the class and position strengths and weaknesses.
This year it appears the top 25 fantasy football rookie class is a deep one, but, will be dominated by WRs, QBs and interestingly, TEs. There could be three immediatley fantasy worthy TEs in this class. However, for the second year in a row there appear to be very few RBs. The lack of RBs might not be bad for dynasty leagues because Watkins, Mike Evans and Marqise Lee look like they have AJ Green potential.
| QSN Rank | Player | Pos | College | Height | Weight |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Sammy Watkins | WR | Clemson | 6-1 | 205 |
| 2 | Mike Evans | WR | Texas A&M | 6-5 | 225 |
| 3 | Marqise Lee | WR | USC | 6-0 | 195 |
| 4 | Eric Ebron | TE | North Carolina | 6-4 | 245 |
| 5 | Teddy Bridgewater | QB | Louisville | 6-3 | 218 |
| 6 | Bishop Sankey | RB | Washington | 5-10 | 200 |
| 7 | Lache Seastrunk | RB | Baylor | 5-10 | 205 |
| 8 | Johnny Manziel | QB | Texas A&M | 6-1 | 200 |
| 9 | Kelvin Benjamin | WR | Florida St | 6-5 | 235 |
| 10 | Blake Bortles | QB | UCF | 6-3 | 230 |
Sammy Watkins appears a lock for top 3 rookie pick in 2014. Imagine if the Pats drafted Ebron? I would be VERY happy with a top 4 pick.
