When I started the Bloom 100 over 20 years ago, I was convinced talent was king. "Talent creates opportunity" was my motto in rookie drafts.
Since then, I have weighted early opportunity, quality of opportunity, and quality of organization/offense more and more every year.
DESTINATION MATTERS! A LOT!
With that in mind, here's a quick rundown of how each team can add or destroy a rookie's dynasty value.
Value Add Teams
- Chicago - In Ben Johnson/Ryan Poles we trust
- Detroit - In Dan Campbell/Brad Holmes we trust
- Green Bay - In Matt LaFleur/Brian Gutekunst we trust
- LA Rams - In McVay/Snead/Demoff we trust
- LA Chargers - In Harbaugh/Horitz we trust
- Tampa Bay - In Jason Licht we trust
Give Them the Benefit of the Doubt
- Buffalo - James Cook more than makes up for Keon Coleman
- Cincinnati - Joe Burrow is a fantasy alchemist
- Dallas - Crushing the first round lately
- Indianapolis - Most early RB/WR/TE picks have hit
- Miami - Packers South
- NY Giants - Schoen's hit rate on QB/RB/WR/TE is actually good
- Seattle - They know what they are doing
Uncertain/Mixed Bag
- Atlanta - New regime
- Baltimore - Was it Harbaugh or DeCosta?
- Carolina - A lot of whiffs in Morgan's 2024 draft, but Coker was a home run UDFA
- Houston - Caserio didn't draft Nico Collins
- Jacksonville - Not enough to judge yet
- Kansas City - Does Rashee Rice make up for Clyde Edwards-Helaire, Mecole Hardman, and Skyy Moore?
- Las Vegas - Let's give Spytek a real coach first
- Minnesota - No GM; is Kevin O'Connell's genius wearing off?
- New England - TreVeyon Henderson was overhyped
- New Orleans - Encouraging signs, but gave up a third for Devaughn Vele
- Philadelphia - Jalen Reagor over Justin Jefferson should haunt Roseman to his grave
- San Francisco - Isaac Guerendo, Tyrion Davis-Price, Trey Sermon, Joe Williams
- Tennessee - Not enough to judge yet
- Washington - Jacory Croskey-Merritt, but also Ben Sinnott and Luke McCaffrey
Value Loss Teams
- Arizona - Let's hire the guys who couldn't fix the Jets offense!
- Cleveland - Who is the quarterback? Does it matter?
- Denver - Payton finally decided to trade a 1st instead of blowing yet another 2nd-day WR pick
- NY Jets - Ship of Fools
- Pittsburgh - Living in the past
With that out of the way, let's run down which teams we should be rooting for to draft at each position to add value to our rookie draft picks:
