The 2026 NFL draft is considered one of the weaker draft classes in recent years, but there are still plenty of talented players who could make an impact in fantasy football … you might just have to wait a year or two for some of them to become consistent, reliable starters.
One player who should make an immediate impact is Notre Dame running back Jeremiyah Love. Widely considered to be the best player in the draft class, he has been mocked as high as the fourth overall pick by the Titans. He is also easily the top player in most fantasy rankings. Ohio State wide receiver Carnell Tate, USC wide receiver Makai Lemon and Arizona State wide receiver Jordyn Tyson follow Love as potential top-five fantasy rookies.
