Rookie Projections Breakdown (by Jeff Ratcliffe)

Ashton Jeanty (RB, Raiders)
Jeanty leads all rookies in Jeff’s projections with 1,133 rushing yards, 420 receiving yards, and over 1,550 total scrimmage yards. He’s positioned for immediate RB2 value in fantasy.

Omarion Hampton (RB, Chargers)
Projected for 878 rushing yards, 271 receiving yards, and nearly 7 total touchdowns, Hampton should carve out a significant role in the Chargers’ offense as a rookie flex play.

Quinshon Judkins (RB, Browns)
Judkins is forecasted for 912 rushing yards and 213 receiving yards in Cleveland’s backfield, offering reliable volume and touchdown upside for fantasy managers.

Travis Hunter (WR, Jaguars)
One of the most electric prospects in the class, Hunter is projected for over 900 receiving yards and 5 touchdowns, immediately entering the WR3 conversation for fantasy.

Tetairoa McMillan (WR, Panthers)
McMillan also projects near 900 receiving yards with 5 touchdowns, and he lands in a Panthers WR room hungry for playmakers, giving him legitimate breakout potential.
