Fantasy Football: How Did the 2017 Rookie Class Fare?
Alvin Kamara was a breakout star this past season. Who else stood out among first-year players?

Honorable Mentions

Plenty of rookies provided value in 2017, but injuries limited the impact many were able to have. Dalvin Cook came out of the gates red-hot before his rookie season was lost to injury. The Green Bay Packers' rookie tandem of Jamaal Williams and Aaron Jones filled in nicely when Ty Montgomery went down, but Jones himself struggled to stay healthy.

Detroit Lions rookie Kenny Golladay started big with a two-touchdown game in Week 1 but later dealt with injuries. Chris Godwin had trouble getting consistent playing time, but he managed to post big weeks when given the chance.
