It was a gigantic week for rookie hype.
Ja’Kobi Lane, Cyrus Allen, and Caleb Douglas have all officially moved their way into “worth a late round flyer” range in most season-long drafts.
Mike Washington Jr. is the main beneficiary of the Ashton Jeanty injury, and likely slots in as the RB1 for any time that Jeanty misses.
Juwan Johnson likely benefits from the Jordyn Tyson injury.
Terrance Ferguson has stood out in Rams camp, and there was a report this week that the team would expand his route tree and use more 3-TE sets.
Jonah Coleman got a stamp of approval from Sean Payton this week when he was pulled early into their second preseason game.

*Not Listed: Ashton Jeanty
As of this writing, Jeanty has fallen 2 spots and went from the RB6 to the RB8. The data from the past two days is all over the place as the information about his injury has been vague. He will likely fall further in the coming week.
Jordyn Tyson will miss multiple months with a hamstring strain. He is completely unreliable in season-long fantasy and should be seen as nothing more than an intriguing stash.
Jayden Higgins has a torn ACL and will miss the entire season.
Omar Cooper Jr.’s usage in the Jets second preseason game was positive, as he was no longer clearly losing out on snaps with the starters to Isaiah Williams. Still, he seems much less intriguing than he did entering camp.
Tyrone Tracy Jr.’s widely publicized missed block is probably an overblown narrative, but the Giants signing Najee Harris is almost certainly bad news for his volume.
Breece Hall, Jeremiyah Love, and Kyle Monangai are all injured right now. Hall and Love are hopeful to be ready around Week 1. Monangai should miss at least the first few weeks of the regular season.
