Projecting the First Round of Superflex Rookie Drafts After Day 1 of the Reality Event

Shawn Siegele
April 28, 2023

Last night, Blair Andrews, Dave Caban, and I put together our live fantasy reactions. The full writing team will be involved on Day 2, and I’ll be doing a live Stealing Bananas show with Ben Gretch.

That’s a good place to start in our draft breakdowns, but I also wanted to add my initial projection for Round 1 of rookie drafts next week. Before the draft, I put together a top-36 ranking series, but this exercise is about feeling out where I think players will go, not necessarily where I’d take them.

Be sure to check out our 2023 rookie content and grab a copy of the RotoViz Rookie Guide.
