Player mentions

Article text

The NFL Draft is behind us, rookie drafts are taking place, and as dynasty managers we are looking ahead to the upcoming season. In our Dynasty Rookie Draft Post-Draft Update series, we break down all the incoming fantasy-relevant rookies, looking at their profiles and where they fit. The basis of the rookie profile involves the usage of STORM analysis, focusing on five key components: Situation, Talent, Opportunity, Risk, and Market. Situation Name: Sam Roush Position: Tight End Pro Team: Chicago Bears College Team: Stanford Draft Status: Round 3, Pick 69 The NFL was all about the rugged, in-line blocking tight end during April’s draft, and the Bears were not going to miss out on the fun. Early in round three, they landed Stanford’s Sam Roush, a player they hope seamlessly complements ascending star Colston Loveland and veteran Cole Kmet . This archetype of player feels like a reach, but then you look up in March and realize Charlie Kolar is getting a good payday in free agency. The league is valuing these players more and more as teams deploy more heavy sets, giving Roush a clear pathway to a significant role. Ben Johnson looks to have a very intentional plan on offense. Will it lead to Roush providing any fantasy value? It is the key question for us here, though I am guessing Johnson has little interest in our wants. Talent SUBSCRIBE TO DLF PREMIUM!
