2013 NFL Scouting: Ranking the Top Ten Fantasy Football Rookie Wide Receivers
It used to be that rookie wide receivers had little to no fantasy value. It was a widely held view that most young receivers needed three years in the league before they would adjust to the speed of the game. Clearly, there wasn't much use in having a rookie wideout on your fantasy roster.
That may not be the case this year, as it's likely we'll see rookie wide receivers become the focal point of more than one offense. Who could help out your fantasy squad?

The NFL Draft not only changed the make-up of all the league's 32 rosters, but it also will likely shake up your fantasy football team's line-up as well. Will there be a rookie that makes an impact like Doug Martin and RGIII did last season, or will this class of rookies provide less of an impact than did 2012's class?
The 2013 draft class will forever be remembered as the “Year of the Anti-Quarterback”. Teams refused to value the top quarterbacks in the class as franchise-level talents despite multiple showing that ability in college..jpg)
For the final division in this series, Jared Counterman takes a look at one of the most interesting divisions in this draft, the NFC North. Whether it was the Vikings making a big splash in the first round, Green Bay grabbing two starting quality running backs, or Chicago making a surprising first round selection, the NFC North added quite a few new faces that will likely be making an early impact.
Between the quarterback drama in New York, the rebuilding projects in Miami and Buffalo, and the never-ending reign of the Patriots at the top of the AFC, there's rarely a dull moment in the AFC East. That was true during the draft as well, as both the Bills and the Jets made some surprising moves that shake up the division for years to come.
In the NFC South, there's no shortage of superstars on the offensive side of the ball. Between players like Cam Newton, Drew Brees, Julio Jones, and Doug Martin, it's rare to see a divisional match-up with out the potential for some serious fireworks.
There may not have been more interesting division to follow during the draft than the NFC East. What strategies would the new look Eagles employ? Who would Jerry Jones and the Cowboys have their eyes set on? Would it be the Giants or Redskins that would find the pieces to get them to the next level?
For 3/4 of the AFC West, the mission for the draft was simple: try and catch up to the Broncos. Meanwhile, Denver had quite a different goal, as they're looking to make it to the Super Bowl with a very talented roster and an aging quarterback.
The NFC West was one of the most competitive divisions in the league last season, and that's only become more true after both Seattle and San Francisco put together stellar off seasons prior to the draft. In the mean time, St. Louis is still a team on the rise and Arizona is looking to undergo a culture change in 2014.
