Rookies can often make the difference between fantasy playoff runs and fantasy irrelevance, as anyone who drafted Kyler Murray, Josh Jacobs or A.J. Brown last year can attest.

Alabama's Henry Ruggs III could be one of those rookie difference-makers in 2020.

The Las Vegas Raiders selected the 21-year-old with the No. 12 overall pick of the 2020 NFL draft on Thursday, giving them a potential game-breaking presence with the speed to blow past almost any defensive back.

Fantasy players looking for a mid-round addition would surely be pleased if Ruggs replicates his production from his final two years with the Crimson Tide.
