Rookie Scouting Profile: Rome Odunze
FullTime Fantasy Rookie Scouting Profile: Rome Odunze Rome Odunze (WR) Washington Ht. Wt. 40-Time NFL Draft Dynasty ADP NFL Comp 6-3 212 4.45 Top 10 1.03 Larry Fitzgerald College Production Rome Odunz was the Gatorade Nevada Player of the Year in 2019 out of Bishop Gorman High in Las Vegas. He was recruited by Alabama, Miami (FL), Tennessee, and several Pac-12 schools before committing to Washington. Played in all four of the Huskies’ games as a true freshman. Became a starter in 2021, snagging 41-of-72 targets. In 2022, Odunze posted All-Pac-12 First Team numbers with 75 grabs for 1,145 yards and seven touchdowns. In his final season at Washington, Odunze was a First-Team AP All-American and Biltetnikoff Award finalist after leading FBS with 1,640 receiving yards. Also caught 92 balls and scored 14 times for the national runners-up. Strengths • Elite and nuanced route runner with no discernable weaknesses. Consistently able to create space with good separation ability and technique. Pulled off a rare feat per Matt Harmon’s Reception Perception charting. Rome Odunze is the FIRST WR prospect in 4 years to have an all-green @RecepPerception chart. The fact that he’s widely considered the WR3 in the 2024 class just shows how insane this draft will be. Thank you @MattHarmon_BYB, easily one of the greatest creators in the industry. pic.twitter.com/MCmBBW2Mtq — Austin Abbott (@AustinAbbottFF) March 25, 2024 • Outstanding blend of size and speed. Posted a 97th-percentile catch radius and 93rd-percentile Speed Score at the 2024 NFL Scouting Combine in Indy. • A+ character and team-first guy who leads by example. • Will be a contested catch and red-zone beast with the strength, size, and desire to come up with every ball. Uses his frame extremely well in this area. • Led all receivers in contested catch targets (21) and ranked third with a sizzling 75% contested catch rate last season. • Excelled against zone coverage and has slot/perimeter experience. • Very good run-after-catch skills. Concerns • Feasted on lesser Pac-12 defenders and was helped by a very WR-friendly Washington scheme. • Bigger, physical cornerbacks can sometimes disrupt his release off the line in press coverage. • Needs a little polish on technique and “selling” his intentions when breaking routes off. • Could stand to add some muscle to his large frame. Fantasy Outlook When watching Rome Odunze’s tape, it’s easy to see why he is considered an elite NFL prospect. In previous season, Odunze’s combination of size and speed and consistent ability to get open would garner WR1 accolades. Even in this class, Odunze could very well be selected in the first 10 picks of the 2024 NFL Draft. His pro comparisons include Larry Fitzgerald, DeAndre Hopkins, and Keenan Allen. That is high praise for a sizable wideout who can run all the routes and can get open. I love Odunze but he is firmly in a tier of his own as my No. 3 wideout in this class. Odunze will hear his name called early on Day One. However, the fantasy fan in me hopes that a competent team with a credible offense and signal caller pulls the trigger and Odunze can post solid numbers right out of the gate. Being mocked to the Giants, who certainly need wide receivers, is a concern for his 2024 redraft value. He’s the easy 1.03 in rookie drafts and warrants top-20 attention in dynasty start-ups.

Rookie Scouting Profile: Malik Nabers
FullTime Fantasy Rookie Scouting Profile: Malik Nabers Malik Nabers (WR) LSU Ht. Wt. 40-Time NFL Draft Dynasty ADP NFL Comp 6-0* 199* 4.35* Top 10 1.02 Ja’Marr Chase *Pro Day College Production The next in a long line of dominant LSU wideouts. Nabers hails from Youngsville, Louisiana, and chose to stay home and play for the Tigers after first committing to Mississippi State. Played in 11 games as a true freshman, reeling in 28-of-46 targets for 417 yards and four scores and being named to the All-SEC Freshman Team. Broke out as a sophomore starter, catching an SEC-best 72 balls for 1,014 yards and three touchdowns. Nabers exploded onto the scene in his final season in Baton Rouge, earning All-SEC First Team and AP All-American honors. Was also a finalist for the Biletnikoff Award after again leading the SEC in grabs (89), ranking second in FBS with 1,569 receiving yards, and third with 14 TDs. Strengths • Dominant physical player at every level. Nabers excels as a route-runner and wins in contested catch situations. Has the instincts and physical skills to always get open, win 50/50 balls, and make huge gains after the catch. • One of the best receivers in the nation on jump balls. Has the tools to be a first-down machine and superb red-zone closer with the burst to create space. • In 2023 posted the highest PFF overall grade (92.9) and as a pure receiver (93.1). Also ranked fourth in yards per route run (3.64) and missed tackles forced (30). • Set an LSU record in receptions (189) and receiving yards (3,003), topping notable wideouts Justin Jefferson, Ja’Marr Chase, and Odell Beckham Jr. • Experience dominating from the slot and perimeter. Concerns • Speed is more than adequate but lacks the elite top gear to run away from faster NFL DBs. • Will need to adjust to creating space from press coverage with improved technique. • A few more concentration drops than you’d like to see. • Somewhat limited route tree at LSU. Fantasy Outlook Nabers is my WR1 and 1.01 of the 2024 rookie class. LSU has a knack for developing stud NFL WR1s and Nabers set impressive school records. His all-around skill set and intangibles are a perfect fit in today’s wide-open NFL passing attacks. He’s got the versatility to line up anywhere but will shine as a perimeter threat. I compared him to another former Tiger, Ja’Marr Chase as a potent outside threat that would be a nightmare after the catch. Most draftniks prefer Marvin Harrison Jr. as the 1.01. However, I feel like Nabers has more touchdown potential and a higher ceiling while Harrison has the higher floor. Both are top-2 choices in rookie-only drafts and top-5 targets in Superflex. In redraft, Chase will appeal to me as a strong WR2 that I wouldn’t hesitate to target in the fourth or fifth round. See where Malik Nabers ranks in Jody’s 2024 rookie rankings.

Rookie Scouting Profile: Marvin Harrison Jr.
FullTime Fantasy Rookie Scouting Profile: Marvin Harrison Jr. Marvin Harrison Jr. (WR) Ohio State Ht. Wt. 40-Time NFL Draft Dynasty ADP NFL Comp 6-3 209* 4.45* Top 10 1.01 A.J. Green *Estimate College Production A four-star recruit out of St. Joseph’s Prep in Philadelphia, Harrison chose the Buckeyes over numerous over prestige programs that made offers. Made an impact in 2021 as a true freshman, snagging a Rose Bowl record three touchdowns in OSU’s 48-45 win over Utah. As a sophomore was named unanimous All-American First Team and Biletnikoff Award finalist after snagging 77-of-109 targets for 1,263 yards and 14 touchdowns. Won the Biletnikoff award in 2023 with little dropoff in production regardless of new quarterback. Strengths • Fantastic route runner with outstanding technique and footwork. Consistently creates space and leverage. • Downfield playmaker who consistently wins contested-catch battles and keeps the chains moving. • High Football IQ. Great feel for where the first-down marker is. Adept at reeling in sideline throws and getting his feet down in bounds. • Highly productive in both 2022 and 2023 despite losing C.J. Sroud. Durable. • Inside/outside flexibility. His height would make him a problematic matchup as a big slot for slower linebackers and will have an advantage on all defensive backs. • Able to defeat press coverage. • NFL bloodlines and pedigree. Very similar playing style to his father, NFL Hall-of-Famer Marvin Harrison. • Player comps include A.J. Green, Larry Fitzgerald, and his father. Concerns • Does not create a lot of extra yards after catch or force many missed tackles. Forced only five missed tackles in 2023. • 8.2% drop rate in 2023 after dropping just three of 118 targets in 2022. However, the swap of C.J. Stroud to Kyle McCord should be factored in. • Not the strongest guy at shielding off coverage. Needs to improve at fully running back to the ball on comeback routes. • Lacks the top-end speed to run away from NFL defenders. • Did not perform any drills at the NFL Scouting Combine or Ohio State’s Pro Day. Fantasy Outlook When it comes to “can’t miss” prospects, Marvin Harrison Jr. is considered even better than Jaxon Smith-Njigba was last year at this time. His consistent production at an elite program, NFL bloodlines, and body of work would fit on any team. He is widely considered the top wide receiver in this class. Harrison will start on Week 1 and could immediately be a No. 1 wideout. He also could play in the slot and act as a refined possession target who will quickly develop a rapport with his quarterback. A locked-in top-10 prospect, Harrison would be the top wideout right away on New England (3), Arizona (4), or the Giants (6). Harrison is the easy 1.01 in single-QB rookie drafts but is considered such a solid prospect that he warrants top billing even in Superflex formats. Definitely a prospect for fantasy managers to go out of their way to targets. However, it will be expensive. Harrison is already a top-10 dynasty wide receiver. Keep JSN’s relatively quiet rookie campaign in mind before selling the farm if you boast a “win now” dynasty roster. See where Harrison ranks in Jody’s 2024 rookie rankings. JOIN OUR MAILING LIST!

Rookie Scouting Profile: Caleb Williams
FullTime Fantasy Rookie Scouting Profile: Caleb Williams Caleb Williams (QB) USC Ht. Wt. 40-Time NFL Draft Dynasty ADP NFL Comp 6-0 7/8 217 4.5* 1.01 1.07 Dak Prescott * estimate College Production The top high school recruit in the nation, Williams first enrolled at Oklahoma as the backup to Spencer Rattler. Williams spearheaded the Sooners’ comeback win over Texas and retained the starting job for the rest of the 2021 season. Ended his freshman campaign with 1,912 passing yards, 442 yards rushing, and 27 total touchdowns. In 2022, Williams followed Lincoln Riley to USC. Set the Trojans’ school record with 4,537 passing yards, 42 scores, and total offense en route to Walter Camp, Maxwell Award, Sporting News Player of the Year accolades, and winning the Heisman Trophy. Concluded collegiate career with 41 combined scores and a career-high 170.1 QB Rating. Strengths • Gunslinger who can make all the throws and checks all the boxes to be an elite franchise signal-caller. • Excellent accuracy and timing on short and intermediate routes. Williams has the arm talent to make all the throws, including on anticipatory routes. • Elite runner and thrower who will be a nightmare option in RPO offense. • Superb leader who comes up clutch and wills his teams to victories. • Has excellent instincts to avoid pressure and is more than capable of escaping the pocket and churning out huge chunk plays on the ground. • Good decision-maker who is widely considered one of the best NFL quarterback prospects of the last five years. Concerns • Most of his production came in a single-read, shotgun offense at USC. • Deep-ball accuracy was inconsistent. • Under ideal “prototype” NFL size. (17th percentile height). • Ball security on runs. • Struggled more than expected under pressure. • Aggressive nature could lead to more downfield interceptions against better-quality NFL defensive backs. • Did not run a pro-style offense and still needs to improve going through progressions and hanging tough in the pocket against faster, stronger NFL pass rushers. Fantasy Outlook Considered a “can’t miss” prospect, Williams is polished and a lock to start in the NFL on Day One. Also, he’s been the prohibitive favorite to be selected No. 1 overall for over two years. With Chicago trading Justin Fields to Pittsburgh, it’s all but certain that Williams will open 2024 as the Bears’ long-sought-after starter. Williams isn’t quite the runner that Fields was but will be a top-10 running quarterback. Additionally, he’s far better as a passer than Fields. Matt Eberflus is coaching for his job and will undoubtedly put his prized rookie in a strong position to succeed right away. Chicago made strides in the second half of 2023 and could contend with improved QB play. Williams has the dual-threat capabilities to post QB1 numbers as a rookie. Additionally, the acquisition of Keena Allen gives Williams a pair of elite wideouts to go along with a solid receiving tight end and running back. View Williams as a strong QB2 in redraft formats and a top-8 signal-caller in dynasty. He’s the lock 1.01 in Superflex rookie drafts and is worthy of top-half of Round One attention in single-QB leagues. JOIN OUR MAILING LIST!
