Dynasty Rookie Rankings Roundtable w/ Jakob Sanderson & Pat Kerrane

·1 hr 8 min·4 clips

Pat Kerrane says Brock Bowers can still become tight end one despite a brutal Raiders landing spot.

1. The SportsGrid Fantasy Football Show episode centers on Dynasty rookie rankings after the 2024 NFL Draft, with Davis Matic, Jacob Sanderson, and Pat Corain framing the market around rookie drafts. 2. Jacob Sanderson and Pat Corain matter here because they are actively comparing rookie picks, trade values, and player tiers, while Davis Matic keeps the draft-board questions moving. 3. The episode asks what managers should do with the 1.01, 1.03, 1.04, and 1.09 in rookie drafts now that Caleb Williams, Marvin Harrison Jr., and Brock Bowers have landed. 4. The first major topic is the 1.01 choice, where Jacob says he is taking Caleb Williams “almost all the time” over Marvin Harrison Jr. 5. Jacob also says the market makes the 101 and 102 hard to acquire, citing trades like 101 for Chase and 101 for Jefferson as examples of how scarce the picks have become. 6. Pat argues that Caleb Williams belongs in a special quarterback category because superflex values quarterbacks for a long time, even if the player is uneven early. 7. The show then turns to Drake May, where Pat says the consensus may settle around the 1.05 or 1.06 and Jacob cites a possible 1.08 price as a bad rookie-draft value. 8. They compare May’s spread to J.J. McCarthy and note that May has both believers and a much lower floor in the market, which makes his rookie draft slot volatile. 9. Jacob says the Patriots draft class, with additional offense pieces, encourages him to keep May higher than the market does. 10. The Rome Odunze discussion focuses on whether Chicago’s landing spot should matter more in dynasty or in best ball, with Keenan Allen and DJ Moore named as immediate target competition. 11. Pat says Rome could still be ranked ahead of Malik Nabers next offseason if the rookie production is good enough and Keenan Allen declines. 12. Jacob argues the market may be correctly discounting Rome in best ball while still pricing him aggressively in dynasty. 13. Brock Bowers becomes the longest argument of the episode, with Pat calling the Raiders landing spot a “brutal” fit for year-one fantasy production. 14. The hosts bring up Luke Getsy, Michael Mayer, Gardner Minshew, and Davante Adams while discussing whether Bowers can still reach elite dynasty status. 15. Pat says Bowers can still be tight end one in dynasty if he posts something like 53 catches, 818 yards, and four touchdowns. 16. Jacob pushes back by emphasizing Bowers’ Georgia production, after-the-catch profile, and the idea that he has already shown the ceiling the position needs. 17. The tone is a fast-moving panel debate, with overlapping arguments, draft-board hypotheticals, and repeated back-and-forth over market pricing. 18. The style is conversational and speculative rather than formal, and the hosts use specific draft slots and trades to test their rankings in real time. 19. Listeners who play superflex dynasty rookie drafts and trade picks aggressively should get the most out of this episode. 20. Listeners who want player profiles without market-driven draft-slot talk may want to skip it.
