The 2020 NFL Draft is in the books, which means football fans can turn their attention to upcoming fantasy football drafts.
This year’s rookie class has a ton of talent at the quarterback and wide receiver positions, while also providing some quality options at the running back position who will be of interest for your fantasy football team.
Words of caution: With everything on lock-down, rookie players may take longer to make an impact on their respective NFL teams. A potential lack of OTAs, rookie minicamps, etc., could have many rookie players behind the learning curve when the season begins… so temper your expectations out of the gate. When it comes to positional battles, give the early win — in most cases — to the veteran player who knows the playbook over the flashy new rookie. In time, the rooks will step forward, but it’s going to take some on-the-field training and that comes with time.
