Today, we’re going to be diving into a Superflex dynasty rookie mock draft with landing spots following the senior bowl. DynastyLand Football hosted this mock draft, so this was a room full of great dynasty players. The mock draft we used was a 7-round 2024 NFL Mock Draft by Pro Football Network. That said, let’s take a look at this mock draft and then discuss the biggest values and reaches.

3.11 – RB Josh Williams, LSU (UDFA)

3.12 – QB Joe Milton, Los Angeles Rams (NFL – 5.152)

Best Values

1.10 – TE Brock Bowers, Indianapolis Colts (NFL – 1.15)

The only other player I can argue Brock Bowers should be ahead of is Brian Thomas Jr, and even then, that’s tough to say. Thomas finds himself in a dream landing spot with the Bills at pick 28. Assuming Gabe Davis leaves, Thomas will be the clear WR2 with Josh Allen throwing him the ball. Bowers, on the other hand, slides out of the top 10 but still lands in a good situation with the Colts.

The reason Bowers fell so far is because two additional quarterbacks, Bo Nix and J.J. McCarthy, got first-round draft capital. Although you may not like them as prospects, in a Superflex format, quarterbacks are by far the most valuable position. If you own a top 10 rookie pick, you should be praying for this scenario because the value of these picks will go through the roof.

2.09 – WR Keon Coleman, Carolina Panthers (NFL – 2.33)

I’m not the biggest Keon Coleman fan in the world, but the 2.09 seems a little harsh here. The Panthers aren’t the best landing spot, but we saw a 32-year-old Adam Thielen put up WR1 numbers for most of the 2023 season, so it’s not impossible to find success. Coleman has a wide range of outcomes, so seeing him go 33rd overall is fairly reassuring. It’s not fantastic by any means, but I would only draft Coleman this low if he went in the third round or later.

There’s no way I’m taking Trey Benson over Coleman, especially if Benson goes to the Colts. Right now, Coleman is my 6th ranked receiver, and this mock draft does nothing to change that. I love Ja’Lynn Polk and Jalen McMillan, but both were drafted behind Coleman in this mock draft. Draft capital isn’t everything, but neither Polk or McMillan find themself in a good enough situation to pass Coleman.

Biggest Reaches

3.09 – RB Dillon Johnson, New England Patriots (NFL – 6.181)

Although I was a big fan of Dillon Johnson at Washington, I don’t love him as a prospect. I understand this is a little nitpicky since we’re in the late third round, but this draft room was very good. The problem with Johnson is that even though he’s good at a lot of things, he’s not exceptional at any particular one. Johnson had great pass-catching stats at Mississippi State, but his pass-catching volume dropped significantly once he was thrust into a heavy workload. 

I would rather take Bucky Irving, who goes to the 49ers in the third round. Irving is a much better pass-catching prospect, which is very important for these day-two and day-three backs. Maybe Johnson is the Ezekiel Elliott replacement, but I don’t see him becoming fantasy-relevant with sixth-round draft capital. 

3.11 – RB Josh Williams, LSU (UDFA)

I’ll keep this short: Josh Williams is a horrible pick, even at the 3.11. At LSU, Williams was exciting at times, but he’s not a real NFL running back. In this scenario, Williams doesn’t even get drafted, which is not something to take lightly. Draft capital is crucial for running backs, and if an NFL team doesn’t want to draft him, you shouldn’t either.
