Rookie Scouting Profile: Zach Charbonnet
FullTime Fantasy Rookie Scouting Profile: Zach Charbonnet (RB) Zach Charbonnet (RB) UCLA Height Weight 40-Time DOB NFL Draft Dynasty ADP NFL Comp 6-0 214 4.53 01/08/2001 Day 2 1.06 James Conner College Production Originally enrolled at Michigan after a stand-out career at Oaks Christian in Westlake Village, California. Charbonnet was named the Wolverines’ Offensive Rookie of the Year and was honorable-mention All Big-Ten after rushing for 726 yards and 11 scores as a freshman in 2019. Playing time dropped off significantly in 2020 behind Hassan Haskins, so Charbonnet transferred to UCLA. In his first season (2021) with the Bruins, Charbonnet racked up 226 touches and produced 1,334 scrimmage yards and 13 TDs en route to second-team All-Pac-12 honors. Followed that up with an even better senior campaign. Was promoted to all-conference first-team after leading the team with 1,359 rushing yards and snagging 37 passes in only 10 games in 2022. Strengths • Physical, inside runner who can move piles and is extremely underrated as a pass-catcher. Averaged 4.15 yards after contact per attempt and also boasted a top-10 PFF receiving grade. • Solid power back with plus ball security and short-yardage potential. • Performed well in Indianapolis, posting a 4.53 40 (70th percentile), 101.6 Speed Score (72nd), and 123.9 Burst Score (76th). • Good vision and decision-making. • High character and football IQ. • 91.5 overall PFF grade ranked fourth among all FBS running backs in 2022 Areas for Improvement • Has the size and willingness to develop in pass protection but needs a lot of work in that area to stay on the field in third-down passing situations. • Footwork can slip in traffic, which leads to hesitancy and could lead to too many stuffs in the A gap. • Does not offer superior speed when changing direction or coming out of cuts. • Lack of elusiveness and escapability. Fantasy Outlook It’s easy to see why Zach Charbonnet has been a favorite of the fantasy and scouting community for a while. He has ideal size and the potential to develop into a three-down option. He reminds me of James Conner, but others see a A.J. Dillon comps as a sizable back that can also catch well. It wouldn’t be a surprise to see Charbonnet be the second back selected in 2022 as early as Round Two. If he slips into Round 3, his current 1.06 rookie ADP could slide. Depending on the landing spot, Charbonnet could be a solid redraft value as an RB4. Other Rookie Profiles Bijan Robinson Jaxon Smith-Njigba Jordan Addison Quentin Johnston Jahmyr Gibbs C.J.

Rookie Scouting Profile: Bryce Young
FullTime Fantasy Rookie Scouting Profile: Bryce Young (QB) Bryce Young (QB) Alabama Height Weight 40-Time DOB NFL Draft Dynasty ADP NFL Comp 5-10 204 4.52 07/25/2001 Top-2 2.01 Russell Wilson College Production A five-star recruit out of the fabled Mater Dei High in Santa Ana, California, where he earned Gatorade Player of the Year honors and was named the All-American Bowl Player of the Year. Young chose Alabama after de-committing from USC. Posted a 96.0 QB Rating in limited action playing behind Mac Jones as a freshman in 2020. In his first season as Alabama’s starter, Young won the Maxwell Award, Davey O’Brien Award, Manning Award, and won the Heisman Trophy after throwing for 4,821 yards and 47 scores. Followed that up with a svelte 32-to-5 TD-to-INT ratio and led the NCAA with a 91.3 passer grade from PFF. Strengths • Outstanding football IQ and poise. Young sees the entire field well and is well-versed in pro-style read progressions, route concepts, and how to exploit defenses. • Strong arm with excellent touch and accuracy. Ball placement is already pro-ready, as is his ability to throw his receivers open. • Able to consistently get the ball anywhere on the field. • Wasn’t asked to run a lot but is underrated as an athlete. • Immediate leader of men. Young leads by example and has a knack for being clutch. Unaffected by pressure and set example with calm, level-headed decision-making. • Led all FBS quarterbacks with a 91.3 passer grade (PFF) in 2022. Areas for Improvement • Undersized. Young would be one of the smallest starting NFL quarterbacks on record. That may cause some teams to be concerned about Young’s ability to withstand hits from bigger, faster NFL pass rushers. • Played in a pro-style system with deep and talented supporting cast at Alabama. Adjusting to a lesser NFL roster could lead to growing pains. • Needs to improve timing and ability to make immediate reads, especially if he is playing behind a lesser offensive line. • 9 3/4-inch hands are on the smaller size. • Minor shoulder injury in 2022 cost him one start. Fantasy Outlook There isn’t a lot of criticism of Bryce Young’s game. It’s all concerns about his (lack of) size. Young probably played at under 200 pounds throughout his college career. And it would be unprecedented for a quarterback that small to go in the first round of the NFL Draft. Still, Young is a clutch field general type with an NFL-caliber arm. He’s also underrated as a runner, which has drawn some comparisons to Russell Wilson, Drew Brees, and Kyler Murray. It is widely believed that Young will be one of the first two selections in this draft. That means he’s highly likely to be starting from Day One. There’s enough upside here to view Young as a solid QB2. Also, the floor is high enough that he warrants 1.02 consideration in Superflex leagues.

Rookie Scouting Profile: Jaxon Smith-Njigba
FullTime Fantasy Rookie Scouting Profile: Jaxon Smith-Njigba (WR) Jaxon Smith-Njigba (WR) Ohio State Height Weight 40-Time DOB NFL Draft Dynasty ADP NFL Comp 6-1 196 4.52* 02/14/2002 1st 1.02 Amon-Ra St. Brown *Pro Day College Production Another five-star recruit out of Rockwall High School in Texas where he was named the 6A Player of the Year in 2019. Smith-Njiba played sparingly as a freshman, accumulating 49 yards on 10 grabs. Broke out in a huge way in 2021, amassing a Big Ten record 1,606 receiving yards. He also posted a record-breaking Rose Bowl performance with 15 receptions for 347 yards and three touchdowns while teammates Chris Olave and Garrett Wilson opted out of the game. Following 2021, Smith-Njigba earned third-team Big Ten and All-American honors. Smith-Njigba battled a hamstring injury in 2022 and recorded only four grabs. FFWC Dynasty Orphans are now on sale! Click HERE to enter the FFWC Dynasty League Orphans lobby and get teams up to 50% OFF! Strengths • Versatile inside/outside threat with premier hands and elite route-running capabilities from anywhere. • Outstanding hands catcher who also excels in contested-catch situations. • Gets into and out of breaks at top speed. Knack for finding weaknesses in zone coverage and always finds ways to get open. Tremendous instincts and feel. • Led NCAA in yards per route run in 2001 despite running 88.6% of his routes out of the slot and averaging 9.4 ADOT. • Does most of his damage out of the slot but has the instincts, speed, and route skills to be a formidable downfield weapon. Areas for Improvement • Lack of top-end speed. Posted just a 44th-percentile Speed Score. That may force NFL teams to see JSN as only a slot option. • 122.0 Burst Score is merely average (54th percentile). • Missed most of 2022 season with a hamstring injury and declined to run the 40 at the NFL Scouting Combine. • Had some concentration drops. Fantasy Outlook JSN has long been coveted as a potential PPR beast since his breakout 2021 campaign. Last year was certainly a disappointment but being timed between 4.48 and 4.53 in the 40 at Ohio State’s Pro Day quelled some of the concerns. If Smith-Njigba’s outstanding route-running and ability to exploit coverage gaps transfers to the NFL, he profiles as a potential slot monster in the Amon-Ra St. Brown/Keenan Allen mold. Smith-Njigba is a locked-in first-round talent who has a very good shot at being the first wide receiver selected in the 2022 NFL Draft. That warrants attention as the 1.02 overall in non-Superflex Dynasty Rookie drafts. Other Rookie Profiles Bijan Robinson JOIN OUR MAILING LIST!

Rookie Scouting Profile: Bijan Robinson

The Longhorns won the recruiting battle and Robinson starred immediately. Accumulated 705 rushing yards and 15 grabs as a true freshman in 2020. Was named a semi-finalist for the Doak Walker Award, Maxwell Award, and Earl Campbell Tyler Rose Award in 2021. Won the Doak Walker in 2022 and garnered unanimous All-American honors as a junior. Leaves Texas as the school’s fourth-highest rusher and scorer (41 touchdowns). The Dynasty Football World Championships Orphans are now on sale! Click HERE to enter the Orphans lobby and get teams up to 50% OFF! Strengths • Three-down back with superlative size, power, speed (108.7-speed score), and all-around ability. • Consistently showcased elite vision, power, and decision-making ability. Possesses the strength and agility to be a plus short-yardage and red-zone option as both a runner and receiver. • Led nation in missed tackles forced (104) and boasted the second-highest overall RB grade per PFF. • Has the speed, size, and hands to be a problematic matchup as a receiver out of the backfield. Can stay on the field on all downs and game scripts. • Excellent footwork. Is able to make quick cuts and can fit any scheme. • Durable and tough. Gets stronger with more carries. Bell-cow back that kind take over and close out games without losing effectiveness. • Has the power to run over defensive backs. Can pop out of traffic and has enough long speed to take short gains to the house. Areas for Improvement • 89th-percentile speed score but lacks the elite top gear to separate from faster defensive backs. • Solid receiver but doesn’t always reel in catches with hands. • Can hold his own as a pass-blocker but will need to work to improve against bigger, faster NFL defensive ends and pass rushers. • Will have to learn to let plays develop and rely on blockers when accounting for much faster NFL defenders. Fantasy Outlook Bijan Robinson is poised to join Earl Campbell, Ricky Williams, Cedric Benson, and Jamaal Charles as the next great NFL and fantasy running back. Robinson has the perfect blend of size, speed, and power to excel. Plus, he’s a very good pass catcher who won’t need to come off the field. He’s been considered a can’t-miss prospect since his freshman year and his play has more than warranted the accolades. In early best-ball drafts, Robinson is often being nabbed as a first-round selection and top-three back. Even in SuperFlex dynasty rookie drafts, Bijan is the locked-in 1.01. One of the safest picks in the 2023 NFL Draft, Robinson could sneak into the top 10 but is a lock for Day One. In redrafts, Robinson is already contending for RB1 honors and should command and ADP near the 1/2 turn. There’s risk in being that bold, but the reward makes snagging Robinson tantalizing.
