The Los Angeles Rams have made a significant move by selecting Ty Simpson in the NFL Draft, enhancing the value of late first-round rookie picks in Dynasty Fantasy Football leagues. Generally, quarterbacks drafted in the first round command attention in rookie drafts, and Simpson's selection ensures he will be a hot commodity.

In his final college season, Simpson showcased his skills by starting 15 games for Alabama, completing 64.5% of his passes for 3,567 yards, 28 touchdowns, and just five interceptions. However, his lack of extensive starting experience raises questions about his readiness for the NFL.

Key considerations for Simpson include:

• Mobility: While he can maneuver in the pocket, he is not expected to offer significant rushing upside.
• Size: At 6-foot-1 and 211 pounds, concerns about his physicality persist, and being 23 years old may affect his long-term development.

Despite these drawbacks, Simpson excels in pre-snap processing, a skill honed during his time at Alabama, which could ease his transition to the professional level. His arm strength, decision-making, and accuracy provide a foundation for potential success.

The opportunity to learn under Sean McVay and sit behind Matthew Stafford may create an ideal scenario for Simpson. If he eventually steps into a starting role, particularly with weapons like Puka Nacua in the Rams' offensive scheme, he could emerge as a viable QB2 option for Fantasy Football enthusiasts.
