Moore, Palmer, St. Brown Top Rookie Sleeper WRs

Rookie receivers have entered the league in recent years readier than ever to contribute early, but it's not always as easy as following the NFL draft order to find the best fantasy sleepers. Last year, most analysts agreed that Henry Ruggs, Jerry Jeudy, and CeeDee Lamb were the best receiver prospects in some order. But they landed in target logjams in Las Vegas, Denver, and Dallas that likely limited their fantasy potential. In contrast, Justin Jefferson and Chase Claypool found two of the three best situations for immediate production, and they ended the year as tremendous values as the sixth and 23rd scoring receivers in PPR formats.
