Before you yell at me, I’m fully aware that it’s way too early to be creating 2026 dynasty rookie rankings. However, I’ve decided to rank my top 24 players and put them into six different tiers just for fun. Again, this is a way too early set of rankings, but it should help you familiarize yourself with these names for dynasty. For this set of rankings, we’ll be assuming a Superflex PPR format.

Top 2026 Rookie Sleeper

 

 

Hykeem Williams

Florida State (WR)

 

To be fair, I haven’t really heard anyone else talking about 2026 dynasty rookie rankings, but Hykeem Williams is a player I expect to fly under the radar. Due to his lack of production so far, not many people are talking about Williams, but I expect him to break out in his junior year. Williams is a blue chip prospect, being ranked as the 3rd overall wide receiver and 15th overall prospect per 247Sports.

 

At 6 '2”, 215 lbs, Williams should get a ton of love from NFL Draft experts because his frame allows him to be an X receiver in the NFL. In the brief time I’ve seen Williams play, he has shown a fantastic combination of size and speed to pair with elite explosiveness. He’s also shown flashes of great running and seems to separate with ease. Don’t be shocked if Williams breaks out and is at the top of these 2026 dynasty rookie rankings a year from now.
