WR Prospect Lab: Day 3 Receivers Are Almost Free in Rookie Drafts – 8 Key Fliers to Stash and Watch

May 7, 2020

In Part 3 of the WR Prospect Lab rankings, Shawn Siegele provides eight key fliers to stash at the end of rookie drafts.

With rookie drafts in full effect and owners starting to get comfortable with the high-profile selections, it’s time to discuss the best sleeper and flier options for rebuilders and deep league owners.

We’ve previously discussed the upset No. 1 receiver among the six stars selected on Day 1. Rounds 2 and 3 of the reality draft brought another big surprise at the top of our Day 2 rankings. In a draft where the big names may be slightly overrated, the WR Prospect Lab allows savvy owners to make out like bandits by targeting the elite depth.

Today we focus on receivers selected outside the top 100 picks. Only one of these receivers is currently going in the first three rounds of rookie drafts, but seven more names jump out for deep leagues and Watch Lists. By the time these players flash in training camp, it may already be too late.
