Jalen McMillan | WR – Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Rookie

McMillan is the talk of Buccaneers Training Camp and for good reason. He will be on the field in three WR sets and has the skill set to move around the offense. His third Round NFL Draft capital and “boxed out” target situation keeps him affordable in dynasty trades and for late dynasty rookie drafts. He plays alongside one of the oldest WR duos in football, giving him appealing contingent upside value. Stash him everywhere.

Tyrone Tracy | RB – New York Giants – Rookie

Tracy is an uber-athletic former WR with plus athleticism and great straight-line speed (4.48 40). He left the University of Iowa after a stint at WR and converted to RB at Purdue. At 24, he is an older prospect, but that is less of a concern at the RB position. He has a pathway to immediate usage and starting RB Devin Singletary has never had more than 216 carries in a season.

Tracy is competing with Eric Gray for the No. 2 RB job, but athletically, he is far superior. This is the sort of running back we want to stash in dynasty. Tracy is a minimal cost and provides instant utility if the starter ahead of him underperforms or is injured.

Andrei Iosivas | WR – Cincinnati Bengals – 2nd Year

Iosivas has the luxury of being the fourth highest-ranked WR on his team in the Keep Trade Cut Dynasty Rankings. The presence of Jermaine Burton—not to mention Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins—keeps Iosivas affordable everywhere. Iosivas has a pathway to the Tyler Boyd role, and with his athletic profile and potential slot usage, he could be a very fun spike week player. Think year-two Gabe Davis vibes. There are reports out of Bengals camp that Iosivas will be used in the slot this season. With his size, speed, and athleticism, any sort of slot usage is an exciting plus.

Jermaine Burton | WR – Cincinnati Bengals – Rookie

Speaking of Iosivas, his ascent and training camp buzz have created a secondary marketplace for Burton. Burton is an uber-talented former Georgia and Alabama receiver who fell to the third round of the NFL Draft despite having talent that warranted a high Round 2 grade by some. He steamed up in rookie drafts with the potential for a Tee Higgins trade. Well, Higgins is back—most likely for one final year in Cincinnati—and Burton could be the heir apparent to the WR2 role in a Joe Burrow-led offense.

The lack of preseason buzz and current depth chart may have created a pathway for dynasty managers to send a reasonable trade offer. If your roster can support holding a player who may be slow to get started, Burton is a great bet. With his speed, athleticism, and two-way ability, he has a pathway to becoming a WR3 or better in dynasty as early as 2025.

Cade Stover | TE – Houston Texans – Rookie

Stover is stuck behind veteran Dalton Schultz this season. Schultz blocked the initial pathway of another young TE during his time in Dallas in Jake Ferguson. Last season, Ferguson stepped right in and excelled, finishing as the TE in PPR. Stover‘s fantasy football pathway should be similar. Houston could move on from Schultz as early as 2025, and Stover would be an instant Top 15 TE. He also has the locker room narrative, playing multiple seasons alongside C.J. Stroud at Ohio State.

Audric Estime | RB – Denver Broncos – Rookie

Estime seems like a player who could gain a considerable amount of dynasty value this season. There is a lot of competition in the Denver Broncos backfield, but no one has a role that is cemented in stone. Estime is the arbitrage play to Javonte Williams and has more size and pedigree than Jaleel McLaughlin. In terms of college production, Estime checks off all of the boxes. He rushed for over 2,200 yards in the past two seasons and set a single-season Notre Dame record with 18 rushing TDs in 2023.

A much slower than expected 40-yard dash crushed his chances of Day 2 NFL Draft capital (4.71), but Estime improved that number tremendously at Notre Dame’s Pro Day by running a 4.58. The landing spot is a good one, and Denver is desperate for a running back to deliver. Do not be surprised if Estime ends up leading this backfield.

Will Shipley | RB – Philadelphia Eagles – Rookie

Shipley has multiple pathways to fantasy viability. He will start the season behind Saquon Barkley as the handcuff RB in Philadelphia. If Barkley were to miss time, Shipley would see the majority of the high-value touches, with Kenneth Gainwell mixing in. He is a must-stash player in any league where the cost to acquire him is not prohibitive.

Jared Wiley | TE – Kansas City Chiefs – Rookie

Fantasy managers have continually eyed the Chiefs’ TE2 job as a long-term speculation play. Unlike previous Chiefs TEs like Noah Gray and Blake Bell, Jared Wiley could actually become the successor to Travis Kelce that Chiefs fans have been looking for.

Wiley has the size (6-6, 260-pounds) and speed (4.62 40 yad dash) combination to not only excel long-term but help Kansas City in the red zone this season. He caught 47 passes and 8 TDs at TCU and impressed at the Senior Bowl. The Chiefs have used him with the First Team offense already, and Wiley has had the opportunity to catch passes from Patrick Mahomes.

This year will be yet another Travis Kelce season, but father time is undefeated. As great as Kelce is, it is not hard to envision him hanging it up in the near future. The Chiefs may have drafted their next long-term TE. Wiley will not be Kelce in terms of usage, but a starting TE attached to Mahomes would be a nice piece to have for any dynasty roster.

Michael Penix Jr. | QB – Atlanta Falcons – Rookie

This one needs no explanation. Atlanta used the No. 8 overall pick on Penix Jr. seemingly to redshirt him behind Kirk Cousins for a year—or two. If anyone in your league drafted him because of “value,” consider sending them an offer. It will be difficult for the Falcons to take a Jordan Love-like path with Penix Jr., and his ascent to the No. 1 job could be much quicker than anticipated.

Whenever he takes over, he will step into a terrific situation attached to a young and talented roster. Penix Jr. would play indoors and throw passes to Drake London, Kyle Pitts, and Bijan Robinson. Year 2 Penix Jr. could be more appealing than any QB in the 2025 class.

Send a few offers to the Penix Jr. manager. Their lack of patience could be your reward.
