Ultimate Rookie Ranking Week 3 2024
I hope my dear readers aren’t fantasy players. The injury bug is absolutely decimating whole fantasy rosters as start after star goes down. What? This is primarily a fantasy driven website? Whoops.
The good news is, as old reliable players go down it opens up space for rookies to take over. As more and more rookies do well there’s more competition for me to follow for the weekly report until it slowly drives me insane. How fun!
All scoring is PPR based.

A mediocre passing day (23/29 for 226 yards) fantasy day was kept afloat by Daniels’ rushing attack. Ten carries led to 40 yards. Not exactly electric, but Daniels was the best rookie QB of the week.

The Jets only gave Braelon Allen nine touches this week. He turned those into 33 rushing yards, 23 receiving yards and two touchdowns. With production like this, it’s going to be hard not to give Allen more touches, even if the Jets already have Breece Hall ahead of him.
3. Brock Bowers (18.8)
Bowers is suddenly one of Gardner Minshew’s best friends. He caught all nine of the targets sent his way for 98 yards. Only Davante Adams had more targets, which bodes well for the rookie. In a down year for tight ends across the board, Bowers is paying dividends to those who gambled on him.

I don’t think Daniel Jones knows he has other wide receivers on his team. Jones threw the ball in Nabers direction a massive 18 times. That is an insane 64.2% target share for the week! Nabers caught 10 targets for 127 yards and a touchdown. This is both great news and terrible news. Nabers is clearly THE GUY in New York, but the whole world knows he’s THE GUY. Will Nabers be able to perform with the whole league trying to shut him down? It’ll be exciting to watch.
1. Marvin Harrison Jr (29)
How many people benched Marvin Harrison Jr after the one catch, four yards game from week one? This week, Harrison had four catches for 130 yards and netted two touchdowns. The first touchdown was an absolute toe tapping beauty. Marvin Harrison Jr is starting to look like the kid who played at Ohio State and the league better look out.
Pray to the fantasy gods your team stays intact. There’s only so many IR spots on a roster to go around. Mine are already filled.
Good luck out there!
