Fantasy Football enthusiasts will be getting ready for another year of fun and excitement as the 2024 NFL season is just a month away.

Here, we will take a look at five rookies who should be considered for your fantasy team.

Marvin Harrison Jr., Wide Receiver, Arizona Cardinals

The first player who can make a big impact for your fantasy team as a rookie is undoubtedly wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr., who was drafted by the Cardinals. This pick makes a lot of sense, as the Cardinals will be using him as their true WR1, and with the departure of Marquise Brown to Kansas City, there is nobody else to command as many targets as the former Buckeye.

Moreover, with a healthy Kyler Murray throwing the ball, we can expect these two to develop a instantaneous connection with one another.

Malik Nabers, Wide Receiver, New York Giants

One more wide receiver who could have a big impact for fantasy football players is Malik Nabers. Nabers also finds himself as the WR1 in New York, and it is more than likely that the Giants offense will feed off of him with nobody else to command the same level of attention.

Unfortunately for Nabers, the quarterback situation in New York is not a favorable one with Daniel Jones struggling to get his career going. However, Nabers’ skillset should help him get open and be the leading target man on the team.

Caleb Williams, Quarterback, Chicago Bears

Not only is Caleb Williams one of the best collegiate quarterbacks to have come out in recent years, but the Bears have gifted him with a bunch of offensive weapons to work with in his rookie season.

Williams will have the likes of DJ Moore, Keenan Allen, and Rome Odunze as targets in the receiving room who will also be aided by Cole Kmet as the tight end. Additionally, running back D’Andre Swift is also a decent pass-catcher from the backfield.

If all goes well in Chicago, expect Williams to light up the league in his rookie season.

Brock Bowers, Tight End, Las Vegas Raiders

Brock Bowers is expected to have a standout rookie season in Las Vegas. He is already ahead of Michael Mayer on the Raiders’ depth chart and should see a lot of action at the tight end position. Bowers caught passes for 2,538 yards during his three-year college career and was also the recipient of 26 touchdowns.

Keon Coleman, Wide Receiver, Buffalo Bills

To round off this list is yet another wide receiver, Keon Coleman. The Bills receiving corps looks to be severely hampered this year with the departures of Stefon Diggs and Gabe Davis.

Khalil Shakir should be the WR1 in Buffalo receiving most of the targets, but we can expect Coleman to have a good year behind Shakir. The one thing in favor for Coleman is his quarterback Josh Allen, who is currently one of the top signal-callers in the game.
