Despite the labor unrest, the 2011 NFL Draft will go on as planned—and that means dynasty leaguers will be proceeding with their player selection events as well. And while the opportunity presented to each rookie factors into their fantasy prospects, that doesn't mean it's too early to start sizing up the incoming talent on your dynasty draft board.
With that in mind, here is a ranking of the 2011 rookie skill position players likely to hear their name called in New York during draft weekend. Rankings are based on pro—and specifically, fantasy—potential in a no-restrictions dynasty keeper league.
