Dynasty Rookie Draft Pick Review: Tight End Premium League

1.08 – Jonathan Brooks (RB – CAR)

Brooks lands in CAR with second-round NFL Draft capital in a wide-open backfield, with his toughest competition being Chuba Hubbard and Miles Sanders. Yes, he’s recovering from an ACL tear, but as soon as he’s ready to shoulder most of the load for this backfield, it should be his job. Brooks displayed a three-down skillset last year at Texas, ranking 21st in yards after contact per attempt and yards per route run while also finishing ninth in PFF elusive rating. Brooks could begin the season as an RB3/flex but finish it as a stretch run hero.

2.08 – Blake Corum (RB – LAR)

I have my worries about Corum, but the Rams investing third-round draft capital in him was interesting. Corum’s yards after contact per attempt, breakaway percentage, and elusive ratings fell in each of his final three collegiate seasons (per PFF). That’s not exactly the trend line that you want to have entering the NFL, but the Rams’ third-round investment in the Michigan product is a decent vote of confidence that Corum can possibly get back to his 2021 form (24th in yards after contact per attempt per PFF). I doubt Corum is taking passing down snaps away from Kyren Williams, but he could help spell him on early downs and salt away the clock late in games. Corum is a high-end handcuff only right now.
– Derek Brown

3.08 – Malachi Corley (WR – NYJ)

Corley is built like a running back. He has a compact, thick frame and a sturdy lower half. He utilizes his strong frame and low center of gravity to break arm tackles in the open field. A true slot receiver. Western Kentucky tried to get the ball in his hands in any way possible with screens, pop passes, and handoffs. He was utilized on a ton of screens, slants, and quick-outs. Corley offers some YAC upside with a decent second gear. He has a good feel for attacking zone coverage and finding good areas to sit down in coverage.
– Derek Brown

4.08 – Jared Wiley (TE – KC)

Jared Wiley didn’t break out until his 22-year-old season at TCU, where he compiled 520 yards and 8 TDs (tied for first in the nation, 5 in the red zone) en route to a 22% dominator rating – the highest single-season dominator rating in the class behind Brock Bowers.

The 6-foot-6 and 249-pound tight end compiled over 25 yards after the catch per game. He’s a good athlete and has the size to box out defenders. Wiley’s got the potential to be an absolute red zone monster in the Chiefs offense in a post-Travis Kelce era. It might be a few years for that to come to fruition.
– Andrew Erickson

5.08 – Johnny Wilson (WR – PHI)

Unfortunately, the NFL spoke loudly about Wilson’s skillset as he tumbled to the sixth round of the NFL Draft before the Eagles snatched him up. Wilson’s clearest path to playing time could be if he transitions to tight end, but that doesn’t even appear to be on the radar right now. With A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith both securing long-term deals recently, Philadelphia’s passing attack will run through them for the foreseeable future. Wilson should compete in camp for the WR4 role on the team. His particular skillset remains intriguing, and I’ll still take some late fourth-round rookie draft swings with him or pick him up off waivers after the rookie draft. He’s definitely worth stashing on a taxi squad.
