Which Rookie's ADP will skyrocket the most this weekend? (preseason week 1) (1 Viewer)

Kyle Pitts, I know he's already going high, but I think he might hit the Waller/Kittle area with a big preseason.

 
Javonte Williams.

it already happened last week, but Micah Parsons for all involved in IDP leagues

Zach Wilson

Michael Carter - I mean , who else is going to run the ball for NYJ?

J. Waddle - reports from camp are that Waddle has been abusing Bears defenders all week in scrimmages.

I think all of these guys see their ADP rise in a big way 

 
Going with Javian Hawkins.  He’s likely to get a good workload being UDFA and he’s got the weakest depth chart to climb.

Along the same lines, 7th round draft pick Garrid Doaks of the Dolphins. He's fighting for a roster spot, but his competition for short yardage power back is Malcom Brown. 5 ft 11 inches, 228 pounds with a 39.5 inch vertical. It's a longshot. His fame is a pre-draft tweet "if you don't want your QB hit, draft me."

Now we need a thread for which rookie falls the most.

 
Moore looked very good and his usage in the game plans could be strong this season.  Arrow pointing way up 

 
Trey Sermon could get overhyped if the twos play longer than the ones. 

I could totally see a scenario where Sermon looks great with the 2s and maybe busts a big run. 

Meanwhile Mostert will be kept in bubble wrap until the regular season. 

Fallout: sermon’s ADP climbs past Mostert in redraft. 

IMO that would be foolish, but I could totally see this happening.

Lance was 5-14 passing, not exactly a stellar start.

Wondering about Fields - was his performance against Miami's 2nd stringers,  or their starting defense? if we say Javonte Williams played against 2s, we need to ask the same about Fields, no? 

If Lance played against 2s, that's even worse, it probably means Jimmy G isn't going anywhere, it's his team for the season. 

Z. Wilson looked good. 

T Lawrence looked poised and he  was impressive, making some deep throws look easy.

 
Regarding Lance, there were three great passes that hit the receiver in the hands. 8-14 is what should have been. He’s still raw, though. I also think Kyle told him to not run. There were a number of plays where he could have picked up 10 on the ground and didn’t. 

 
Ty Johnson of the NY Jets. If you're not considering him late, you should be. Still think the Jets bring in a RB off the street, but he looks like Philip Lindsay out there.

There has been a lot of hype for Michael Carter though....

Yes, there has been. I understand that. But every year, fantasy misses a back or two and anoints a fourth or fifth-rounder king when he's not. And Ty Johnson was out the with the ones last night, gaining plenty of yards. Carter and he alternated. Johnson is worth a flyer really, really late if you're drafting Carter.

That's not to contradict you, I'm just saying to watch for that. Figured this was the place for that.

I'll leave Ty Johnson for you.  Enjoy.

Ty definitely looked good last year before Gase for some reason started giving the ball to Adams (who admittedly ran well). I figured Carter being a Saleh pick would give him the leg up, and may very well in the end, but this may be a fluid backfield with Carter/Ty/Coleman/Perine unless one guy emerges.

My comment was more directed towards your comment about the Jets signing a RB off the street. Carter is getting a lot of hype and you like the way Johnson looks, so would they sign a guy off the street just to have some veteran depth?

It's definitely not Carter's backfield yet. I happen, as a guy who likes to watch RBs, think Johnson ran hotter and better last night. How far that carries him, or whether or not he is durable at all, remains the question. Carter looked decent, too, though he left some yards on the field in my estimation.

One thing for sure: We'll have to see more from the two guys. Nothing is settled, and it may be a hellish committee situation.

"I think they sign somebody really athletic off the street," was my original thought as we entered camp. Now I'm not so sure. But watch for that. But not an old retread. A younger guy.

I agree on Ty, but OP said rookies 😋 

Johnson has wheels. If the offense resembles the Shannahan offense of recent years, he's the one that looks most like Raheem Monsters. I'm not super confident he wins the job or avoids a messy rbbc, but his chances are better than the ADP gap between him and Carter would suggest.

Oh wow. Thank you very much. Rookies. ####. My bad. And your analysis is exactly what I'm thinking. He looks the Shanny part in that wide zone scheme.

I mentioned this in the Fields thread: he’s up against the Bills next week. If he goes off again, even if against not all the Bills starters, I see him earning the starting gig week 1 and his ADP will skyrocket.

Good post. I'm going to have to keep a close eye on Mostert in my redrafts...

 
Not rookies, but pick any  2020 udfa on the saints offense and it was probably a good call (Callaway, Jones, Juwan Johnson)
