2012 Rookie Rankings

Introducing Version 1.0 of our 2012 fantasy football rookie rankings. It's a long while until the NFL Draft, and we're not even close to the Combine yet, but it looks like the 2012 NFL rookie class is going to be a deep one. We're starting with the top 35 players for now, and adding more as we get closer to the NFL Draft as necessary, so be sure to check back often for updates.

The "Big Three" of Trent Richardson, Andrew Luck and Justin Blackmon are going to be drafted in virtually all leagues next year, even if it's not a keeper or dynasty league. Deeper leagues will also see Alshon Jeffery, Lamar Miller, Michael Floyd and Robert Griffin III taken as well.

That still leaves a lot of very talented players on the free agent waiver wire that have serious keeper or dynasty league potential, such as Mohamed Sanu, Nick Toon, LaMichael James, Kendall Wright, Doug Martin, Marvin McNutt, Ryan Tannehill and Chris Polk. If you're in a dynasty league that's so intense that you need to research every single player in the Draft, then click here to view the entire rookie rankings cheatsheet.
