The 2024 NFL Draft class is stacked with pass-catching talent. The wide receiver position has rightfully stolen the spotlight (you can find all of my thoughts on the WR class), but the incoming group of soon-to-be rookie tight ends is quite exciting in its own right. Georgia standout Brock Bowers is one of the most explosive receiving prospects to ever enter the NFL Draft at the TE position, and he's not the only player from this group who brings tantalizing potential for Fantasy football purposes.

In fact, another tight end from the 2024 rookie class actually produced better yardage after catch rates at the collegiate level than Bowers! Bowers is a truly legendary YAC producer, ranking leaps and bounds ahead of recent standout prospects Kyle Pitts, Dalton Kincaid, Trey McBride, and Sam LaPorta at the college level. And yet, he is not the most productive YAC creator in his own TE draft class. This potentially overlooked tight end prospect joins Bowers and Mark Andrews as the only tight end prospects since 2016 to record a career yard per route run rate above 2.50 with a minimum of 500 routes run.
