Dynasty Fantasy Football Rankings: Chris Bell, Nicholas Singleton and More

Sam Wallace updates his dynasty fantasy football rankings and adds four intriguing Day 2/3 rookies to the mix.

Published

The last update to my dynasty fantasy football rankings came immediately after the NFL Draft and focused mostly on the skill position players drafted in Round 1. Now that the dust has settled a bit, I'm focusing on the next wave of rookies and trying to determine where they land amongst the veterans in my latest dynasty rankings update.

Dynasty Fantasy Football Rankings - Where The Day 2 and 3 Rookies Slot In

It's always fascinating to see players who are so highly valued in their early college years lose that value by the time they are drafted. A mere two years ago, Nicholas Singleton was viewed as one of the premier RBs in college football. He finished his junior season with:

  • 172 rushing attempts
  • 1,099 rushing yards (6.4 YPC)
  • 41 receptions
  • 375 receiving yards
  • 17 total TDs

Then, Singleton decided to return to college for a fourth year. Unfortunately, his 2025 season saw him post career-worst marks in games played (12), rushing attempts (123) and rushing yards (549). He then went on to break a bone in his foot during a Senior Bowl practice.

So many "what if" questions surround this talented player. Regardless, here's where we stand right now: the Titans drafted Singleton in Round 5 (165th overall), where he'll likely back up Tony Pollard and compete with Tyjae Spears for touches. However, Pollard is already 29 years old and Spears has missed multiple games in each of the last two seasons.

There's a world in which, starting in 2027, the Titans are rolling with a dynamic trio of Cam Ward, Carnell Tate and Singleton in what could be a very productive, fantasy-friendly offense. For these reasons, Singleton slots in as my RB37 in dynasty formats.

I'm a big fan of Malik Willis and I was stoked when he not only got the opportunity to be the starting QB for the Dolphins but also the contract that went along with it. However, my excitement for Willis quickly faded once I saw just how bad their wide receiver room was. Here's how it currently stands:

That's … not great. The team did at least attempt to address the situation during the NFL Draft. They snagged a TE and a pair of wideouts in Round 3 and then another TE and WR on Day 3. Of all their new picks, there's one player who stands out as being the most viable for dynasty managers: Chris Bell.

Bell was one of the two wideouts selected by Miami in the third round. He was having a very productive season at Louisville before tearing his ACL in November. We'll have to keep an eye on his recovery this summer to better gauge when he'll make his debut.

From a prospect perspective, here's what Dwain McFarland had to say about Bell:

When you zoom out on all of the data points, Bell doesn't pop as a special prospect, but he might be good enough to work as an underneath target as a WR2 or WR3 for an NFL offense … Bell's best fit might be on a team that uses motion and play-action to play to his strengths as a YAC option early, as he works out the kinks as a route runner.

Honestly, the biggest thing working for Bell right now is the sheer level of opportunity he'll have in Miami. With no legitimate threats in front of him, Bell should be given every chance to take on a large role in this offense. He's currently my WR59 in dynasty formats.

BAL_ravens-logo.svgElijah Sarratt | WR | BAL

The 2025 Indiana Hoosiers' passing attack was led by Omar Cooper and Elijah Sarratt. They both topped 65 receptions and 800 receiving yards and scored double-digit TDs. However, it was Cooper who wound up being drafted in Round 1 (Jets) while Sarratt fell to Day 3 (Ravens).

Even so, there should be some level of optimism surrounding Sarratt.

Standing at 6-foot-3 and 210 pounds, he's the ideal physical complement to incumbent Zay Flowers (5-foot-9/183 pounds). It sounds as though Sarratt will operate out of the slot with fellow rookie, Ja'Kobi Lane, projecting to be more of an outside threat.

Matt LaMarca had this to say following the NFL Draft:

Sarratt still stands out as an appealing dynasty option. He grades out better than plenty of receivers who were drafted ahead of him in Dwain McFarland’s Rookie Super Model. Even with less draft capital invested in him than initially anticipated, Sarratt has simply produced at every level. I’m not betting against him in the NFL.

Like so many things in fantasy football, we can decide which data points and storylines to listen to and which ones to ignore. I do love it when guys just compete and win wherever they go and I'm excited to see what happens with Sarratt. He slots in as my WR60 in dynasty formats.

WAS_commanders-logo.svgAntonio Williams | WR | WAS

The Commanders have been penciled in as a landing spot for some of the remaining free-agent wideouts, and it's easy to see why. Outside of Terry McLaurin, there's not much to get excited about if you're Jayden Daniels.

That's what makes Antonio Williams so appealing as a dynasty prospect.

The Commanders drafted Williams in the third round, and he profiles as someone who could make an impact right away, especially in a depleted receiver room in Washington. While he dealt with an array of injuries throughout his time at Clemson, a creative offensive coach should be able to unlock some of his best traits.

Alongside McLaurin, Williams will likely operate underneath as his stature (5-foot-11, 187 pounds) and YAC ability lend themselves to someone who can effectively produce from the slot. Dwain McFarland noted the same in his prospect profile:

Williams' closest Super Model comps:

  • Rashee Rice
  • Jaylin Noel
  • Khalil Shakir

In Washington, there is a good QB in Jayden Daniels and a clear path to the No. 2 role behind Terry McLaurin in a WR room without proven depth. Williams is a borderline WR4 with WR3 upside in fantasy football.

Dynasty managers should feel pretty good about drafting Williams and stashing him while he continues to develop. He's currently my WR61 in dynasty formats.
